The original Xbox console had many classic games that were released for it, games that are still unforgettable today. Games like Grand Theft Auto Vice City, Grand Theft Auto San Andreas, Need For Speed Underground 2 and Burnout Revenge that are still fun to play today. So Microsoft decided to make the best Xbox 1 old games, which were 279 games, compatible with the Xbox 360 when they released the console. Then Microsoft increased the amount of Xbox 1 games to 476, in the dashboard update that was released in November 2007. Sadly at April 2010 the online features of Xbox live won't work for Xbox 1 games and no downloadable content is on the marketplace for them, as the live services has been ditched, but still at least you can play the games. Also after that dashboard update in November 2007, Microsoft no longer continued to add more Xbox original games to work with the Xbox 360 in there newer updates, which is disappointing for some.
So Will Xbox 1 Games Play On My Xbox 360?
If you have flashed the drive in your console onto the Ixtreme (LT) firmware, which allows you to play backups of your original Xbox 360 games, then you can still play original Xbox 1 games on it. This is because the Ixtreme firmware allows you to play backup copies and play original as well. Even if you have an elite, arcade or slim model, all three have backwards compatibility built into them from the factory.
My Xbox Original Game Is Not Working On My Xbox 360 and The Disc Is Not Scratched?
If you have inserted a original Xbox 1 game disc into your Xbox 360, it is not scratched or dirty and it won't work, then its highly likely that it is not compatible with you console because Microsoft had only made certain games compatible with your Xbox 360, so not all of them will work.
