At this year's E3 keynote, Microsoft got a big round of applause from the audience when it announced that original Xbox games would become backwards compatible with the Xbox One.
At the time Microsoft only mentioned Crimson Skies and Fuzion Frenzy and there's been much speculation since with regards to the initial list of original Xbox games that would work on Xbox One.
Now, finally, renown Microsoft leaker h0x0d (who also leaked the Surface Laptop ahead of the official reveal) shared on Twitter an image with the covers of the first wave of original Xbox backwards compatible titles.
The games are:

Oddly, some of the biggest games released on the original Xbox such as Halo: Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Project Gotham Racing, Forza Motorsport and Fable are absent from this list.
Still, there are some great games too. Which one would you want to play first?
