Pirates! looks fine. I haven't had a single problem with it.

Eh, you have the option to go buy it on eBay or whatever. I think it'd be annoying if there were originals you that worked that didn't work in disc form, but their aren't. I can't complain much about one more choice.

Hmmm I did like the Longest Journey a lot, and this is a hard to find game... Well I'll think about I guess. $15 seems like a lot of money considering most new XBLA games are only $10.

Is Microsoft serious about this Xbox Originals program, it's really starting to seem like that it was a good idea then, but not so know and they don't know how to say oops. To bad , it could've been something.

I actually like the Xbox Originals program, I just wish MS would start being more agressive about it. They're rolling out new games much too slowly for my tastes.

To me the only problem is the price, when you can go to Gamestop and pick up the less obscure games for $7 or $8 it doesn't seem realistic to sell them at twice that. $5 for Xbox Originals seems perfectly fair to me given the minimal overhead involved.

Cheevos would help.
But I will get this game if only to contribute to the developers since I now have income that allows me to buy games rather than just rent them.
I would love to see Beyond Good and Evil on Originals as well.

Personally I like them bugs and all. Its a good choice for those of us who don't want to bother with searching out some of these games. What i don't like is the gaul to release 3gb + games and then offer a bigger hard drive at the insane price of 180 (give or take a few for a good sale)!!!. Otherwise I like it. Shame i can't actually buy them for lack of room on my 20gb.

I don't get the neagitivity around the original program. I don't use it, and until Panzer Dragoon or metal wolf chaos is offered i doubt I will, but another option for gettiing games is never a bad thing.

I just recently finished this game for the first time and liked it so much that I went and picked up The Longest Journey off of steam and played through it (and I never play older games!).
I highly recommend both of these games to anyone who appreciates story in video games.

Excellent game. After beating it, i went back and played the longest journey. Even though the games are very linear, it's a wonderful story. I hope they come out with a sequel soon.

I'm not a fan of original Xbox games in any form now, after having played so many games in beautiful HD. I tried to play GTA:SA a little while ago, and I almost puked at the low-res graphics (after being spoiled by Saint's Row goodness for so long).
The compatibility glitches just make it a little less desirable.
Nice, in theory, but who really cares about these games any more? My sense of nostalgia doesn't need to be made manifest by playing the games I used to play. They're in the past for a very good reason.
