Today sees the arrival of a whole new batch of Xbox 360 games to the Xbox One‘s backwards compatibility service, but there’s some discrepancies in which ones made the cut depending on the region you live in. If you’re in North America, the 16 games listed below are the ones you get, but UK Xbox One Owners get an additional few games instead of Doritos Crash Course.
Microsoft haven’t given any reason as to why the available games differ by region, but UK residents get Halo Wars, 3 On 3 NHL Arcade, Small Arms and Soul Calibur 2 HD – what a swizz.
