...at least when it comes to KOTOR.

It runs terribly... The dialog sounds choppy as hell, the animations slow down constantly, and during battle it can you over so bad it's almost not worht playing... :(

I should have kept my old Xbox, Microsofts promise of backwards compatibility has fallen FAR short of worthwhile.

Think that sucks? I bought a brand new laptop a week ago. 2.4Ghz athlon, 1Gb of ram and 60gig hard drive coupled with apperenty the only videocard in the world that this game doesnt support :whip: The ati x200 series :whip: Seriously the games runs faster on my old laptop on which the game woudnt even boot up unles i disabled the sound since it 32 out of 256Mbs of ram are used for the graphics card.

I call that sloppy coding :whip: I can run every other ing game just fine...just not my favourite one :whip:

Runs fine.

The Halo games were the first to be coded into the XBOX-emulation, considering that they're the most played/popular titles.

How about pick up a cheap used original Xbox? Thats why I keep the old bastard around for this very reason.

MS is really pissing me off on this one. I sold my xbox to help pay for my 360, and now, out of the 8-10 games I own for Xbox, only 3 are playable on my 360 (both Halo's and Doom 3).

From what I remember hearing, the PS3 might be even worse due to the blu-ray drive and the way the machine is designed compared to the ps2.

Actually, Sony has already confirmed that EVERY PSone and EVERY PS2 game will be playable on the PS3.

Thats the way backwards compatibility SHOULD be done.
