Microsoft made quite a surprising announcement at E3 this year, when it revealed that original Xbox games were coming to Xbox One via backwards compatibility.
The news means that all three generations of Xbox games would be playable on the Xbox One — at least to some extent.

Now, a Twitter user has published what seems to be a preliminary list of original Xbox games coming to the current-generation console. So which titles apparently made the cut?
Titles shown in the tweet are: Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, Dead to Rights, Red Faction 2, Fuzion Frenzy, The King of Fighters Neo Wave, Ninja Gaiden Black, Crimson Skies, Psychonauts, Bloodrayne 2, Grabbed by the Ghoulies, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic and Sid Meier’s Pirates.
A list of original Xbox games coming to Xbox One has apparently leaked
There are definitely a few big hitting titles in the first wave, if the tweet can be believed, but we could also think of a few more games that should hit Xbox One…
Jade Empire, Knights of the Old Republic 2, The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind, Amped, Arx Fatalis, Conker: Live and Reloaded, Genma Onimusha, Half Life 2 and Unreal Championship are just a few more titles we’d like to see.
In any event, Microsoft listed a “fall 2017” launch date for original Xbox games to come to Xbox One. So, anytime now…
