Use the search function, and you will notice pretty quickly that the 2 Oddworld games on Xbox aren't backward compatible.

The best thing you can do is send a mail to the backward compatiblity team and tell them you'd love to play SW and MO on Xbox360.

Here is their email adress: backcomp@microsoft.com

Microsoft are a*sholes. Live with it.
All they want is money, which they have enough of, and don't really care for their customers. Nintendo at least offers customer service and does a good job with it and all, but I hear nothing about Microsoft doing this, or really trying to help at all. They rushed MO and alot of stuff was missed out from it, and that's all Microsoft's fault.

Who's side are you on!? Microsoft can't even be bothered to put classics like MO on, because they're being stupid assholes!
MO was one of the first games out for the Xbox, they should at least make that backwards compatible first, it's only fair.

Our only choice is to confront Bill Gates. He's the man under it all! If we steal even one dollar that spoiled nerd shall fall to knees!

I doubt it and its probly not even Gates falt its C.E.O. of the department of backward compibilty. if there is one.
Why would they bother putting a game on that only our little group of oddworld fans want, compared to those games that the whole world wants.

Are you saying Oddworld doesn't have many fans?!?!?! Nah I get yer point actually, people nowadays want things like Gears of War, they all want overrated games (not that I'm saying those games are bad), but they only focus on those.

Ho. Ly. Crap.

I have no idea what you said. It's like I need to the Rosetta Stone to decipher your posts sometimes.

Actually, it would be "Microsoft is an @$$hole," since Microsoft isn't plural.
If you said "the people on the Microsoft Team," that'd be different.

Shut up, you are in no position to be correcting on grammar.

Secondly, this being directed in everyone who has posted in this thread, besides the one person who didn't bash Bill Gates directly, DON'T hate on him at all. You can hate on Microsoft, but cirtainly don't direct this negativity towards him, when he has actually done tons for children suffering an Africa, and for the education of children around the world in general.
Do your homework on this stuff before you be so quick to blame.

I say simply don't give up, keep emailing the team all of you and see that you are not going to be forgotten. I did find it highly disappointing that certain games which were both awful in sales and awful in design and as a complete package were made backwards compatible. While one the main "Flagship" titles of the original Xbox has not been made availble. Its sales were large enough and numbers sold it made it into Xbox Greatest Hits, etc.

It's probably because those games aren't complex at all and are thus easy to emulate on the 360, so they can add a name to the list without too much effort
