Xbox 360 Classics confirmed

Microsoft has officially confirmed the launch of the Xbox 360 Classics line-up on October 13.

The first four titles to be released on the budget Xbox 360 Classics label will be Perfect Dark: Zero, Kameo: Elements of Power, King Kong, and Condemned. All titles will carry a retail price of £24.99.

"The Xbox 360 Classics programme allows new gamers to always have access to the greatest games at a great price," said EMEA director of marketing and platform Richard Teversham. "Xbox 360 will have a ten million unit head start by the end of 2006 and there will be plenty of new console owners eager to jump in to the best-selling Xbox 360 games."

The first batch of Classics will go on sale from October 13 and will be joined by a second set of titles in spring 2007.
