Eighty-five New Backward Compatible Titles For Xbox 360

Microsoft has announced 85 Xbox games that will now run on the 360. The number’s a big increase, but certain sites are dubious as to the quality of the games now supported.

In a post on the release, Justin McElroy of Joystiq said, “Updates to the 360’s compatibility are always kind of a mixed bag, but this new update is, perhaps, more mixed than usual,” as well as noting that, “the decent game to stinkeroo average is not so hot.”

The “new” games include everything from Cabelas Dangerous Hunts 2, to Playboy: The Mansion, with the update bringing the grand total of backwards compatible Xbox games on the 360 to 465.
