Microsoft are going to start making original Xbox games available on Xbox Live from December 4th.

On this date the fall update will be available, allowing (among other things) you to download and play classic Xbox games. The games available on day 1 will include Halo, Fable, Crimson Skies and Psychonauts. All of these are top titles worth playing.

Pricing for each game is set at 1200 MS points.

How much does 1200 points work out at? It's probably cheaper to buy an Xbox from eBay with some old games isn't it?

1200 points is £10.20

Fable, Crimson Skies, Halo and Psychonauts you can get new or as new for 99p if you get lucky on e-Bay, or sealed new copies for around a tenner. I'd hate to think how many games I could download into my 4.5Gb remaining disc space.

P.S. Carcassonne (full game) is FREE to download today and tomorrow as part of XBox Live's 5th birthday celebrations. So I nabbed it and it now sits next to Hexic and Texas Hold'em gathering dust as I hardly ever play XBLA titles, but it's nice for a rainy day and I'm very grateful for the freebie nonetheless.
