Xbox Games Partially Compatible With Xbox 360

Microsoft has officially stated that only certain Xbox games with be backwards compatible with the upcoming Xbox 360. The company is working with publishers that are currently producing games for the original Xbox to include an emulation code within the game software so they will play on the Xbox 360.

For older games, word is the hard drive will contain emulation codes for the better quality Xbox games (Halo, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, Dead or Alive, etc.). However, the emulation files on the hard drives may not always work on your Xbox games to be Xbox 360 compatible. Microsoft should just put an Xbox processor inside the Xbox 360 so all games will be playable.
