    Sounds like good news

    Does this mean we'll start to see a flood of old school gaming revived for DLC on the 360 ?

    I seriously hope so.

    Oh and I bet at least one person posts this is so that the new games don't stress the CPU and GPU as much so the reports of RRoD will die down

    The only old school that needs revived are the Shmups. I am craving some serious scrolling shoot em ups and Ikaruga just isn't filling the void anymore. The States and Japan are flooded with these games such as Gradius and Raiden yet in europe this is a dead section of gaming Bring it back, this drop of HD would be perfect to port the old scrolling shoot em ups
