Morrowind on Xbox 360.

First of all, can I play a copy of Morrowind on 360?

Is it worth it or is it really buggy when playing on 360?

1. Yes, Morrowind is a supported title. http://support.microsoft.com/kb/911314?sd=xbox

2. Dunno. I played on the Xbox, and personally thought it was an excellent port given the tech. Some people say the load times are extended on the 360 though.

meh some areas svck. the boss fight and televanni counsel rooms in particular have a frame rate of about 2 it seems. If you even have a slightly newish computer you should buy it for that instead, game pads won't work but the keyboard/mouse isn't so bad, plus you can get mods to change the horrible character models and faces

If you can get it for the PC, such as Steam, and provided that your computer can run it, then I would recommend it for the PC instead... Yes, it plays on the Xbox 360 fine, but the load times can be atrocious. As for the PC version, even on an old computer, the load times are pretty much instant. If you don't have any other choice but to get it for the 360, then go for it... I would recommend Game of the Year... always.

Don't play it on the 360. Just don't. I did. It's absolute crap. I fell through the ground every ten minutes, had constant freezes, and loading times were [censored].

Believe me, both PC and the original xbox are far better choices.

If you just want to play with a controller, there's a guide for getting a 360 pad working on PC with Morrowind. I'm sure it's in one of the sticky topics, but I can't seem to find it atm.

Edit: Got it. http://www.gamesas.com/topic/781497-vistawindows-7-problems/page__view__findpost__p__15991192

yes you can play it on the 360 and yes the load times are a lot longer but i would deff recamend it if all you have is a 360.

and Idon'tunderstand i have no idea what your talking about i've played morrwind on the 360 3 defferent times now and i've never once had any of those problems. it runs just fine and my game is scratched to [censored]. that said the only problem i ever have with it are it freezing every once in a while for a few secs some times freezing compleatly to where i have to turn off then back on my 360 and also it made some quest unable to countinue past a sertaine part in the quest line.

but i just got it resurfaced last week and non of that happens any more well it still freezes every once in a while cause there was a scratch that they couldn't get out but it dosn't happen as much as it did.


but any way if its not scratched up it will run or it should run just fine.
