The various Trials games are $10-$20. They are side-scrolling indie physics puzzlers masquerading as Excitebike. I haven't tried any of them. Microsoft was giving one away free to Gold members a few months ago, but I didn't have a sub at the time and didn't feel like burning one of my free months to get it.

Motocross Madness (2012) is $10. It looks like a very barebones motocrosser by Australian developer Bongfish, who specialize in mobile phone games. Its gimmick is that your rider is your Xbox Live avatar (eugh). I haven't tried this one, either.

Sega Vintage Collection: Alex Kidd & Co. is $10. It includes a seemingly random assortment of three completely unrelated Sega games: Alex Kidd in Miracle World for Master System, Revenge of Shinobi for Genesis, and - finally getting to the part that's just barely relevant to your interests - the original 1987 Super-Scaler arcade version of Yu Suzuki's Super Hang-On. As far as I can tell, the only thing these three games have in common is that none of them were popular enough to support a compilation of their own. I would have totally bought a Genesis Shinobi collection with the two Super Shinobis (Revenge and Return) and the superior home version of Shadow Dancer :( [He already knows about this one and nobody cares which Shinobis you like -Ed.]

If there's one classic series I can't believe EA never brought to Xbox, it's... SimCity. But if there's TWO classic series I can't believe EA never brought to Xbox, it's SimCity and I think you know where this is going.
