Xbox 360:Original Xbox Games

By default, phat Xbox 360s come with a built in Xbox emulator. However, the emulator would not boot all games, and later models did not include the emulator at all. This guide will walk you through installing a hacked Xbox emulator which will allow you to play any original Xbox game.

In 2019, an updated hacked compatibility pack was released which enables the Xbox 360 guide and gamechat while playing original Xbox games.
