old xbox games

[cotteneyekeith]

hi due to my broke ridge race i tryed to play one of my old xbox game and looks like u need a hard drive and i dont have 1 has i only have the core system

so anyways is it worth buying the older cheaper xbox game to play on the 360 does the 360 make the game loook any better or run any fast

(the ps2 had a option to make ps1 game run and look smooth) have xbox done the same

i never really noticed with the PS2 nor the 360 its jsut a feature to be able to play classic game syou like, thats how iv seen it


sorry about the whole corness too

yeah it sucks having a core!

but not all games will work anyway, you need to find the list of what is compatbable. and the UK is different from the states

[g4m3r7ag]

"all backward compatible games are upped to 720p and 16:9"

Actually 4:3 games have black bars when shown in 16:9. Some TVs may stretch the image but it's still only 4:3.

Just FWIW, I had heard the same and was very disappointed.
