The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning
First, let me say that I own an Xbox 360 console. Many graphics on an original XBox game aren’t as sharp or as ‘good’ on an XBox 360. It’s like playing an original Playstation game on the PS3 - there’s bound to be some issues.

Faerie Bubbles

Fallout 3 - Game of the Year Edition (PC game)
