Xbox Games I Want on XB1 Most

So, Microsoft actually gave me a legitimately good reason to keep my Xbox One: Upscaled original Xbox games. With reasonably priced digital copies too! And here's the thing about the Xbox: It has a ton of awesome games you can't play on modern tech. So here's a list of what I want to see on it. I'm mostly basing this on games' availability on other tech, so as much as I love Jade Empire and Halo 2, there's other games I'd rather see on here. 

Honorable Mentions: Shenmue 2, Spider-Man 2, Toe Jam and Earl 3, Conker: Live and Reloaded, Sonic Heroes, Burnout 3, Phantasy Star Online (If they can just let you do split screen, that's good enough for me)

5. Otogi 1 and 2

I never got to play these games before, but they're made by From Software. That's good enough for me. 

4. Stubbs the Zombie in Rebel Without a Pulse

Imagine Halo, but you're a zombie. In the 1950's idea of what the future will look like. And your opposition includes a barbershop quartet. Also there's dancing. I swear to god this feels like Halo though. And it is AWESOME!

3. Panzer Dragoon Orta- Seriously, Sega made so many awesome games on the Xbox. Equally awesome is the original Saturn PD is on here. And this is one of the best rail shooters out there. Definitely a must.

2. Silent Hill 2

Thanks to that god awful HD Remake, the only way to play this game is to get a 6th gen console or hunt down the PC version. It's only getting more expensive too. And since it still hasn't hit the PS Store, why not put it onto XBL? I really just want to play this game on a system other than PS2. 

1. Jet Set Radio Future

So many people didn't get the chance to check this awesome series out until the HD remaster, but here's the thing: Future is better in almost every way. Rather than forcing the player to stop and tag a wall, multiple spots must be hit on the fly with a rocket boost option. This in turn creates a more fluid experience, and one of Sega's greatest gems. Check it out.

Never heard of Otogi but I FUCKING NEED IT NOW!

Stubbz should be on everything. It has the best game soundtrack of all time:

Have Jet Set on Vita, and... man that tutorial is the worst I've ever seen in a game.

The Otogi games are great. I used to have both of them in mint condition but they are sold now. :(

The Otogi games were pretty cool. At the time, the name FromSoftware meant nothing to me, but years later I realized the connection. I've been wanting to replay them so I'd gladly welcome support for them on the X1. I've got both on disc already!

I've played Jet Set Radio Future and loved it, but still wish I could play Panzer Dragoon.

I've kept most of my original Xbox library intact, so I'm super excited to play them again on XBO. I'd love for Silent Hill 2 to make it. I think I have the HD Xbox 360 version, which I guess you're saying isn't good? 

My friend Mark is going to play Black the second it's ready on Wednesday. I would but I've got a little more to do in Fable II. 

I don't think they're adding achievements to those. Hear anything about that?

I’ve been wanting Otogi forever. I don’t think it was compatible on the 360. I agree with most of these games. I’d also like Fable, Breakdown, and the first Buffy the Vampire Slayer game, but that one would never happen for obvious reasons.
