£10 a pop

Sid Meier’s Pirates, Ninja Gaiden Black, and Black will be available as part of the 'Xbox Originals' range on the Xbox live marketplace next week.

Pack-shots of the three titles have appeared in the Xbox Originals section of the marketplace where they are being listed as available for download on 11th February.

Current Xbox original games include Burnout 3: Takedown, Psychonauts and Fahrenheit all of which cost 1200 Microsoft points (approx £10) and weigh in between 2GB and 5.3Gb.

If you did buy yourself an Xbox 360 Elite you’ll have plenty of room to download these old classics, but with Ninja Gaiden weighing in at around 5GB and Black and Pirates around 1.2 to 2.6GB respectively, premium owners will need to start looking at upgrading their consoles if they want to take advantage of the 'Xbox Originals' service.

I still believe £10 is far too much to pay for an Xbox game, especially when you can pick them up from ebay for next to nothing.
