Fatal Frame II Directors Cut ?
This is the one that really hurts me too, as this is my favourite Xbox game. That and the original Fatal Frame.

Hi WayneSki,
OK.. I would say YES.. you have to BUY JAP GAMES for your JAP CONSOLE..
There is one (1) XBOX (original xbox) game which may work (australian PAL) is FORZA MOTORSPORT but i know you didnt buy the 360 to play xbox 1 games....
You may be lucky with some games that could boot but i wouldnt risk it myself.. They are worth alot of money.. So...
YES.. YOU HAVE TO BUY JAP GAMES!
Sorry i couldnt be of more help!...
Once a modchip, or hack comes out you will be able to mod and it should be able to play all games then!

BUT NOT ON XBOX LIVE NO DOUBT!
Every game has an Xbox Live feature so we'll have to be extra careful. I myself will buy my games to be safe, X360MC here we come! Also MGS3 on 360 (ps2 emulator)
I believe when i tried to play halo 2 i had to download the patch for it and i was kinda discouraged when I tried to play some other games like forza and it wouldnt work....oh well maybe they have made a patch for it by now...later. _________________________________________________________ Xbox V1.6

I have about 57 original xbox games and of them 18 work on xbox 360. Everyone of them play twice as good. All are displayed in 1080i. some even seem to be more colorful and they run smooth. Playability has been improved. If there was slowdown on xbox in a game it doesn't happen on the 360. I'm happy but want Morrowind: Game of the Year Edition and then my life will be complete.

Thanks for the update there
The more fun thing for us NTSC 360 users with PAL games is what games are actually multi-region (or no locked region).
I have about 7 originals here, and all fail except Forza Motorsport (which hobbs discovered).
Just another quick question too, how does the video sequences on xbox games go on the 360? are they the same or enhanced somehow?

Oh,
Some do not show in full screen wide screen even though they did on xbox. Some are slightly reduced in screen size. Possibly because they were not meant for 1080i but 360 is displaying them that way.
Brute Force for example looks exactly the same but plays so nice and smooth it is like a new game. the way it should have been.
Sonic Heroes is shrunk down a bit but runs great.
All the GTA series seem enhanced visually and more colorful. No slowdown at all.
As for video, it seems the same to me mostly but more glossy in 1080i. I see some more details and words appear more legible. _________________________________________________________ 10% VIP Discount (Coupon Code: HQ-VIP-001 ) - Signup for web hosting at www.TweakedHosting.com/clients/aff.php?aff=004 and earn the HQ network of sites recurring income!

nice info tweaked.. Thanks mate..
I love the quality improvements too..
My god.. Halo2 alone set me back.. I played that for weeks just before i got my 360 and it so much nicer now.. I as playing in HD on xbox 1 but its totally different on 360.. lol
All 360 games play in HD which is perfect since i finally invested in a nice HD setup.. So the 360 makes it worth it just for that reason. Another tip.. I noticed DVD's are immaculate when played through the 360.. Kick ass.
Mp3's are also converted or simulated in 5.1 dolby surround.. even better. lol
tweaked:
- your tshirts are leaving late this week or early next week.
- 360 site will update soon.. Hopefully will look just as nice as the main HQ site.
