Xbox One Backwards Compatibility update: Iconic Valve titles and more added

Microsoft is not looking to stop building up the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility catalog with several more titles now added to the list.

The latest addition to the growing Xbox One Backwards Compatibility lineup is "The Orange Box," a collection of games developed Valve Corporation.

Since there are five titles in this epic compilation (not to mention each and every one being iconic in their own ways, showing Valve at its prime), this could be one of the best things to arrive in the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility program.

Originally released back in October 2007, "The Orange Box" includes "Half-Life 2," "Half-Life 2: Episode 1," "Half-Life 2: Episode Two," "Portal," and "Team Fortress 2" – all of which loved by fans when they were first released.

"Half-Life 2" is, of course, the first-person shooter video game from Valve that takes place several years after the events in "Half-Life." Here, protagonist Gordon Freeman wakes up to a world overtaken by aliens known as Combine.

"Half-Life 2: Episode 1" and "Half-Life 2: Episode Two" expand on the story as Freeman continues his fight to save the world.

As per the description for the new Xbox One Backwards Compatibility game, "Team Fortress 2" is deemed the sequel to the game that "put class-based, multiplayer team warfare on the map."

"Portal," on the other hand, is described as the game that blends puzzles, first person action, and adventure gaming to produce an experience like no other.

Following "The Orange Box" to the Xbox One Backwards Compatibility list are "Galaga Legions" and "Joe Danger 2: The Movie."

The former is the enhanced remake of the fixed shooter "Galaga" by Namco Bandai Games released back in 2008.

The latter is a racing and platform video game developed by Hello Games. This Xbox One Backwards Compatibility addition sees the titular character brought in to a Hollywood film to do cliche action stunts.
