Peter Moore announced by way of Major Nelson’s weekly Podcast that next week there should be an update to the backwards compatibility offerings for the Xbox 360.  He explained that 20 titles will be added to the growing list of BC games including Lego Star Wars and Doom 3. Moore withheld the full list of backward compatible games for fear of “emulation ninjas.” 

Peter Moore also went on to explain how his comments on backwards compatibility were taken out of context last week.  According to Moore the comment referred to backwards compatibility not being as big of a deal at E3 2006 compared to E3 2005.  Peter Moore ends the interview by saying “Its not the case that we don’t care about backwards compat, boy we care about backwards compat.”  He also states that Microsoft plans to get as close as possible to the original goal of having all of the Xbox games working on the Xbox 360.  Readers, what games are you waiting for to be backwards compatible?
