Here are the games and apps that will support Xbox SmartGlass

With Xbox SmartGlass set release later this week when Windows 8 launches on October 26, Microsoft's Major Nelson has taken the time to list all of the apps and games that will support the new mobile technology.

"When the Xbox SmartGlass app launches on tablets, PCs and smartphones, it will include key foundational experiences for interacting with your Xbox 360, such as dashboard and app navigation and Internet Explorer control, like text input, scrolling and pinch and zoom," Major Nelson explained.

"Additionally, you will get SmartGlass experiences with Xbox Video and Xbox Music starting this week. Xbox SmartGlass will be a free downloadable app that takes your Windows 8 tablets and PCs, Windows Phone 8, iOS and Android devices, and converts them into a smart second screen for the entertainment you are enjoying through your Xbox."

For those unfamiliar, Xbox SmartGlass turns your mobile phone or tablet into a secondary screen that interacts with your Xbox 360 and allows for your devices and TV to "talk to each other". Below is a list of games and apps that will support Xbox SmartGlass in the coming months.
