These games were chosen for their quality, universal praise, and popularity among the Windows Central editorial team. We've collated our picks for best Xbox 360 games further below. There's also a list of backward compatible Xbox 360 and original Xbox games that work on the new systems too.

Until then, though, know that all of the best Xbox One games are fully playable on Xbox Series X and Series S thanks to pervasive backward compatibility. We expect that in the next couple of years, the amount of games exclusive to the more powerful Xbox Series X and Series S will swell, justifying a separate list entirely.

Killer Instinct 3? We hope so.We've bundled our picks for best Xbox One and best Xbox Series X, Xbox Series S games into a single list for the time being since the lineup of next-gen exclusive games is still very small. George Andreas, head of design at Rare, also says that the challenge will be about making KI for вЂњthe massesвЂќ, and the magazine itself goes on to conclude: вЂњUnfortunately, fans will have to wait until Natal hits the market before they discover if that question is to remain unanswered.вЂќ Street Fighter IV looked great and theyвЂ™ve done a great job, and IвЂ™m a big fan of those products, but with KI we want to do something different rather than go back into that arena.вЂќДЄnd then the money shot: вЂњI think itвЂ™s about doing something different than with a conventional controller.вЂќ The real eyebrow raiser comes as he goes on to say: вЂњItвЂ™s about timing, and itвЂ™s about the opportunity creatively and gameplay-wise that it would offer. In the new issue of Games TM, an excellent Rare studio feature contains a box out on the Killer Instinct franchise, in which Mark Betteridge reaffirms that Killer Instinct is an IP вЂњnear and dear to usвЂќ. Rare's CG art for KI was stunning, and in-game looked great too

Now, it seems that Killer Instinct may well be coming back вЂ“ but not in the way you might expect. But all that may have changed with the success of CapcomвЂ™s 2D fighting game revival, Street Fighter IV, which we scored 10/10 and is set for further expansion. In recent years, fighting games had not been selling the way they used to (a subject weвЂ™ve discussed with both SEGA AM2 and Namco, if you want further reading). We know that both Mark Betteridge (Rare studio head) and Ken Lobb (Microsoft Game Studios) are supporters of the IP, and it would also be a pretty useful platform-exclusive beat-вЂ™em-up for Xbox 360. The original 2D brawler offered bold, sexy character design and production values light years ahead of other fighters, at a time when only the crude, untextured polygons of the original Virtua Fighter represented the emerging вЂњproper 3DвЂќ beat-вЂ™em-up.ДЇans have been hoping for news of a Killer comeback ever since Rare became part of Microsoft in 2002 and co-founders Chris and Tim Stamper confirmed to us that вЂњthe two properties that go back to Nintendo are Donkey Kong and Star Fox вЂ“ the rest of the IP actually comes back to RareвЂќ.Д®very time the suggestion of Killer Instinct has come up (in screenshots of RareвЂ™s other titles for example, or whenever a Microsoft exec is asked about it), thereвЂ™s a notable response.

One of the coolest fighting game franchises of the nineties was Killer Instinct.
