how can i play xbox games on xbox 360
According to Microsoft , each game requires an emulation profile to run . These profiles are downloaded from Xbox Live , or are downloaded manually from Xbox.com and burned on CD or DVD recordable media . They were also distributed as part of the content on the Official Xbox Magazine monthly discs , which were discontinued in 2012 . The profiles are downloaded as a single bundle , thus only needing to be applied once per update if doing so offline , or are automatically downloaded the first time a compatible game is inserted .
