Specifically I want to get NFL 2k5 (I had it on PS2 but it had dookie graphics) and NBA ID 2004. If Microsoft had made 360 backwards compatible with all games, I would not have this problem. But I'm about to hit a stretch of good games coming out for 360 and I don't know how much love the original XBox will get.
Can't speak for Inside Drive but I'm pretty sure NFL2K5 is now on the backward compatibility list.

NFL 2K5 is not BC. Nor will it ever be according to a VC representative.

Yeah, I'm gonna borrow one from my friend and see if I can pick up NFL 2k5 for that 2 bucks that was posted earlier... that'd be sweet.

Not to mention MVP 2005 at least for me.

That game alone will be the reason I won't get rid of my XBOX even when I buy a 360.
