Ok I just tried some of the ones listed as working and none of them ran, it did download an update however.

Word is, this update was for Japan so far so maybe it hasn't hit here yet. *fingers crossed*

Ok sorry for spamming this thread but...

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=603aa2f7-bbca-4...

Has been updated with a new file dated 4/18/2007. This is the manual BC update you burn to a CD, so hopefully this is not a load of crap and I'm not getting peoples hopes up for nothing.

If it's true, I think we need to have a Phantom Dust night post haste.

Hell yeah it is. I'd say it's about the best update list yet. JSRF and Panzer Dragoon Orta alone would have been sweet, but throw in Mercenaries and the rest and it verges on truly awesome.

I'm tearing up in joy of Phantom Dust. Even is up. http://www.gamerswithjobs.com/node/31593

If Rabbit and anyone who likes boardgames/CCG/TCG would give it a shot they would fall in love.

Oh I'd love a Mercenaries bc impression. How it runs. How the graphics look. Gives me something exciting to daydream about as I pour through excel spreadsheets at work.

An update on JSRF. Apparantly if you own that combo disk (JSRF and Sega Racing) that shipped for free with Xbox for awhile, JSRF will not run. Only the standalone version works.

Awesome! I've been waiting patiently to play some more Phantom Dust ever since I got rid of the old Xbox. I was wondering if it would ever get the BC treatment as it didn't seem to have a huge following.

Are you two into trying new things?

UC2...finally. That was a weird one, especially after Pariah (which uses a slightly tweaked version of the UC2 engine) was on the list for the previous update.

I noticed Midnight Club 3 is still lacking from that list.

Not impressed.

That's really dissapointing because that's the version I own, but hopefully they will get this version working soon

I would like the Midnight Club 3 remix working but it's okay, still an awesome BC update.
