    Morrowind
    Very quick question really, my PC version of Morrowind broke, and I was wondering if I bought an xbox version off amazon, if it would work on my 360... And if it would save, just as important really! Also, anybody know wcopy of daggerfall or arenahere I could get/dowload a c - titles 1 & 2 in TES series?? I wondered if a version of them had been made to run on more modern systems, as I know that at least Arenawas made for a MS-DOS system...
    Thanks!!!

    As far as I'm aware all Xbox games will run on a 360.

    As for Arena, you'll have to download a DOS emulator to run it. There are tons of places to get either of those though

    SORRY for the scrambled post, doing this on my phone & its playing up, hopefully people will be able to understand it...

    Summary : where can I get a copy / download of TES arena or daggerfall that doesn't run on the MS-DOS system, if that is actually possible, and will the xbox version of Morrowind work and save on my 360?
    Thanks, and sorry for the OP...

    You can get arena and daggerfal for free here:

    These versions should be configured right so you dont need to mess around with msdos emulators.

    Morrowind is on steam for £12. Not bad for something which, with the right mods, look amazing by modern standards. Plus it'll never break.

    Get it for the PC. TES games on consoles suck more balls than Boy George on a Friday night.

    Also: BEST. GAME. EV4R!!!!1

    As far as I'm aware only a few games for the Xbox are backwards compatible but I'm not sure.

    I would, though, get Morrowind on PC, because there are so many mods out there that you can expand your playing time by another couple of hundred hours.

    I'm imagine Morrowind is backward compatible as it was so successful plus was a launch title for the Xbox.

    What mods are those? I just started playing it through Steam and a graphics update is never a bad thing.
