Microsoft has announced its next set of Xbox Originals that will be put up for download on the Xbox Live Marketplace on May 19. Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse and Gauntlet: Seven Sorrows will be made available at a cost of 1200 Microsoft Points ($15 US) each. Gauntlet will not be up for sale in Japan and Korea while Stubbs the Zombie won't be sold in Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Korea and Japan.

Xbox Originals are digitally distributed versions of Xbox titles. They run on the same backwards compatibility software that allows you to run Xbox titles in an Xbox 360 and so the experience is largely identical.

I don't like digital re-releases of Xbox games, mainly because you can get them cheaper with box and disc.

Yep the whole xbox originals thing is retarded.

Games that I orginaly own don't work becasue backwards compatibility is so $#@!e... and then they expect me to pay out again to re-purchase the games I already own?? I think not microsoft! lol
