I've heard of lots about the old Xbox titles not working efficiently on the 360, but am considering getting a 4 for £20 offer at my local gamestation. Im thinking of getting:
Halo
Fable
Ninja Gaiden
Star Wars: KOTOR.
I've heard all these games are awesome (never played them) but the most important part of all: DO THEY WORK?

Halo is pretty much perfectly emulated, there are next to no BC issues with either Halo game.
Ninja Gaiden is pretty solid, there are a few hitches here and there, but it's highly playable.
Fable is mediocre, Lost chapters especially, for some reason, there can be some pretty terrible slowdown and glitches that I have noticed.
Sadly the best game of the lot you mentioned is the worst for BC on the 360, KOTOR is not good, the framerate was a bit sluggish on the original Xbox, but with BC, it's downright terrible at some points in the game, and it's way too buggy, sometimes button presses don't register and weird stuff like that. It's not completely unplayable or anything, but it can be a chore at times.
Nice list though and if your looking to get some original Xbox games to take a trip down memory lane on the 360, your getting a good scope there.
