Well, the list of backward compatibility titles on PC just got even larger (and older!). Xbox has just added 21 titles from the original Xbox line up. This bumps the count up to 25 now playable original Xbox titles on PC. For those that want to go back and play some oldies, you now have even more to pick from in your digital library!
Four titles include unlockable achievements
Xbox dropped this news during their FanFest event. They have added these old school titles to the current PC backwards compatibility list. What this update means is that you can now pull up the original Xbox library titles, playable through the PC backwards compatibility.
Of those 21 titles, there are four specific games that have achievements that are unlockable. This list includes Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2, Blinx: The Time Sweeper and Conker: Live and Reloaded. These unlockable achievements are another motivator to those that like to complete the tasks of the game.
Not only are these unlockable achievements available on PC, but on Xbox consoles as well. In fact, these 4 specific titles all have achievements available on Xbox consoles. This will allow sync between the Xbox console side and the PC side when it comes to the achievement progress.
Once again we saw these ideas of balance and stability as we wrote up the last Xbox Backward Compatibility update. But now, we have this new wave of titles, continuing this trend of expansion for the catalogue. In this expansion, you'll see a whole list of various genres from the original Xbox days. Action/Adventure anyone?
