213 Titles on Day 1. Each game has to be emulated, but MS has stated that they will continue to add compatible titles through Xbox Live updates. The goal is to eventually have 100% compatibility:

Here's the big news though:
Every original Xbox game will be upscaled to 720p and 1080i, and will take advantage of Xbox 360’s anti-aliasing capabilities, delivering a picture that is clearer and crisper than anything available on Xbox.


The folks at Xbox® are working hard to add more of your favorite games to this list, so check back often for the latest updates.

Here is a Q&A that answers many common questions about BC:

http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/back...tibilityqa.htm

\Xbox.com: How is your backward compatibility solution going to work?

Todd: As you’ve heard from us before, backward compatibility on Xbox 360 is done through software. Now that we’ve solved the technical challenge and the emulator is working, we’re certifying each original Xbox title by hand to run on Xbox 360.

What I’m really proud to tell you and your readers is that it’s easy to get the emulation software, and it’s free. We’ll give gamers a choice—you can get the latest software updates from Xbox Live, burn a CD from xbox.com or sign up on Xbox.com for a CD that can be delivered to your home at a nominal shipping and handling fee. Once you get the CD, put it in your Xbox 360 and you’re ready to go.

Good job Microsoft.

No Clancy games on the list

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon
Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon 2
Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six 3

I read they are working very hard on the Splinter Cell series, but they games used unique calls to the GPU which are difficult to emulate. I'm sure they will be compatible with an update shortly.
