The releases of TimeSplitters 2 and TimeSplitters: Future Perfect with Xbox backwards compatibility weren't without their issues back in November, but the Xbox team has confirmed they've now been fixed.
Both games suffered with a problem in which the aiming sensitivity was significantly heightened, and Xbox's Jason Ronald took to Twitter earlier today to confirm that this increased sensitivity has been remedied:
"An update to Timesplitters 2 and Future Perfect is available now which should address the feedback on controller sensitivity in these two titles. Appreciate the feedback and patience as we investigated."
We've only had a quick chance to test TimeSplitters 2 since the fix, but can confirm that the sensitivity definitely seems significantly improved following the small 300mb+ update, so it looks like it's done the trick.
TimeSplitters: Future Perfect wasn't quite so severely affected by this issue due to containing a sensitivity slider in the menu, but ultimately this update means you shouldn't have to play around with that feature anymore.
Have you had a chance to test these fixes yet? Let us know how you're finding them below.

Just tried the first level and seems to be working really well now.
Nice! I figured they would fix it quickly, good work! I'll have to buy them now!
Yippee. Great news. Just picked these both up !
Can you buy these digitally or do you have to get physical versions?
@MetalGear_Yoshi they're about $15 each on the digital store, but the old physical versions also work. I bought timesplitters 3 digitally and used the disc for timesplitters 2.
@MetalGear_Yoshi Either works for backwards compatible titles. Though I looked up Future Perfect on eBay, and copies of that were really expensive. Even used, unsealed, copies were around £40-50!
Excellent! Time to ply the story!
Have loved introducing the kids to these absolute banging classics.

Enjoy Timesplitters, everyone! I still have my old GameCube discs but will get both digitally now that they've been patched. And we still have a new, official sequel to look forward to down the road! 😃
Guess that means it's finally time to split.
