RobMk6 Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 I've read a bit more into this and apparently there was an update in 2007 that included the emulators for all games on the list, yet i have 2 games from that list and they still do not play, any ideas?

PeeWee Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 (edited) Im confused what you want here?xbox or xbox360?emulators for what?Liive is free for updates and such things, you only need gold for the online gaming.Im assuming your meaning 360 and wanting to play old xbox games? Are your games genuine copy's or backups? Edited November 29, 2010 by PeeWee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobMk6 Posted November 29, 2010 Author Share Posted November 29, 2010 blow the dust of your old xbox and plug it in? kinda defeats the object then. And yes Pete, wanting to play original xbox games on my 360, they are genuine games and not copies. Didn't realise i hadn't mentioned the formats lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realise i hadn't mentioned the formats lol Cant be a 100% sure of the source but I believe it was on one of the countless leaflets I got with my Elite system that said that the two lowest version systems of the 360 were incapable of playing original xbox games while the higher spec ones were pre-installed for the task, that may have implied a hardware difference rsther thsn s software difference.....what version system do you have?

I've never bothered to look into anything system related on it, all i know atm is its white with a 60gig hd hmmm, well originally there was 3 versions, arcade (which is the budget version without HDD or HDmi} Base (as arcade but with 60GbHDD but no HDmi) Elite (120HDD, HDmi, Xbox original compatability) the first two where commonly white the Elite was black, but!, I beleive there was later variants of all 3 leading upto the new shapes release.

If it's black is an Elite... with a 60GB HDD. If it's white with a white tray it's an Arcade with a 60GB HDD http://admintell.napco.com/ee/images/uploads/gamertell/xbox-360-versions.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobMk6 Posted November 30, 2010 Author Share Posted November 30, 2010 Yea its white with a silver tray. But still needing ideas how i can play my old games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawdreamer Posted December 1, 2010 Share Posted December 1, 2010 Yea its white with a silver tray. But still needing ideas how i can play my old games sounds like yours should be capable. what you need to do is link it up to the web, sign into a silver account(thats the free one) and slot in a xbox original game, if your system doesnt have the appropriate software to play the game its likely the system will then request permission to be allowed to download the appropriate software to play the game (again free) and that should sort it .
