Certain Star Wars Xbox Original Games are non-playable on the Xbox 360 do to an unknown issue ...

Dr EvILLmatic · Oct 17, 2018

I was so happy last night when I saw these games on the 360 Marketplace for a relatively cheap price. I wish I knew then what I know now....

I also purchased both KOTOR games. Apparently at one point there was an issue with the first KOTOR game. But it was fixed eventually.

Microsoft has absolutely been informed of the problem so when will they acknowledge there is an issue with these other games as well and when will that issue be fixed? If the people who can fix this are not aware of the problem by now then customer support
is NOT doing their job properly.

Xbox originals downloads are corrupted

I have an Xbox 360 and I recently bought Star Wars Republic Commando and Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2 on Xbla which are xbox original games. They download fully but I cant play them as they appear as unknown games and the file manager says they
are corrupted. I tried clearing my cache and redownloading them repeatedly but they still wont work. I read somewhere that xbox originals will now only work with Xbox one (which I dont own). If this is true I would like to ask why they are still listed on
the xbox 360 xbla and can i get a refund please.

Xbox One is technically backwards compatible.

I still play halo 1 & 2 Star Wars kotor and other games on my 360 and still have a library of Xbox games even played halo 2 online on 360 and if there wasn't a demand for it why are Xbox originals still being sold on games on demand am I wrong?

The first KotOR game seems to be the only one that works properly. During download the game is listed as "Xbox Originals Game". Games that become corrupted during download such as Star Wars Battlefront II and Jedi Knights: Jedi Academy are listed as "Xbox
360 Game". Perhaps it could be something as simple on Microsoft's end as re-labeling the games as "Xbox Originals Game"?

Thanks for your reply. However, part of what you wrote is incorrect.

First, one of the games that I listed is a Xbox 360 game, Dead or Alive 4.

Second, an OG Xbox game did NOT need to originally be apart of the Xbox 360 BC to be playable on Xbox 360. Dead or Alive 2 Ultimate was never apart of the Xbox 360 BC program yet it became playable on the Xbox 360 on Nov 2021. Star Wars: The Clone Wars was removed from the Xbox 360 BC program yet became playable on Xbox 360 on Nov 2021.

My Xbox One recognized my Xbox 360 purchase of Time Pilot.

So, let's wait for John from Microsoft to provide an update.

Thanks.

Since the Star Wars games are original Xbox games it could be a backwards compatibility issue. Have you been able to play other original Xbox games on your 360 before?

Ok so just had an idea, since they will be porting over the 360 to the Xbox one, can xbox games that were playable on the Xbox 360 via xbox be playable one the one?? For instance, I really love Star Wars Knights of the old Republic 1 and 2..... they were
for Xbox and we're playable on the 360, could those games theoretically be played on the One??
