Playing old Xbox games on the 360

Oman

I've just bought Time Splitters Future Perfect for the original Xbox. I have the newest model of xbox 360, the shiny one, and when put in the game it said I needed the old 360 hardrive. I had one at home and i borrowed a connection cable and pluged it into my 360 but it still says that i need the older hardrive. I've looked up the xbox website and there's no help there. Is there anyway i can actually play it, has anyone played it on the xbox?

Thanks in advance

you have to have an xbox with a hard drive.
The 4gb slim one wont work without a hard drive installed if thats the one you have.

1)Make sure your connected to xbox live.

2)put in your disc and it will ask you to download the backwards compatibility patch download that and if the game is supported it will play.

so as long as its either a 250gb xbox or a 4gb with a hard drive installed you will be able to play it.
You dont need the old style hard drive or the connection cable.

I don't see it here. I'm going to say no.
