Microsoft Updates Xbox 360 Back Compat Again

liquidzero4 writes "Earlier this week, Microsoft patched in another of their regular backwards compatibility updates. This one is fairly important; not only does it add a number of titles to the official back-compat list but several of the new old games are fairly popular. The likes of Panzer Dragoon ORTA, Jet Set Radio Future, Mercenaries, Oddworld: Munch's Oddysee, Soul Calibur 2, and Star Wars Republic Commando are sure to make some 360 owners happy."

then they didnt do it right (thus my point)

Because every game is hitting the system in different ways,

and if they properly emulated their own hardware they wouldnt have that problem.

explain to me how they can design their own console, make their own sdk and release their specs for it, but can't emulate their own sdk!

the xdk is microsoft proprietary.

microsoft designed the sdk (xdk) by which all games interact with the console hardware, and the idea they can't properly emulate an sdk they developed themselves is the most spectacular example of stupidity i've ever seen.
