Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, Starfighter: Special Edition, The Clone Wars, Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast have just been added to the Xbox backwards compatibility list.

That means that Star Wars: Obi-Wan and Lego Star Wars: The Video Game are the only titles from the original Xbox to be not available via backwards compatibility. I understand not wanting Lego Star Wars: The Video Game because Complete Saga has better editions of its levels, but Obi-Wan is a strange one to leave off. Given that the game can’t run on the two most prominent Xbox emulators (xemu and cxbx-reloaded), I suspect that the explanation is “technical reasons.” Either that or it’s a terrible game. I’m leaning towards a mix of both.
