Old Xbox games

Never had the original Xbox, but have noticed my local supermarket selling 100's of titles for £5 each and was wondering what are the ones i should look out for?

Also i hear not all game work on the 360 conversion, is that right?

Is it worth building a back catalog or will i be dissapointed?

So old Xbox owners, give me your top 10!!!

Are you going to be playing them on an xbox or an xbox 360??

if it is xbox 360 only then
Jade Empire
Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 1 & 2
Halo 2
Forza
Links 2004
I have also heard Destroy all humans and Black are great, but i have personally never played them.

If playing with an original xbox add on
Moto GP 3
PGR2
Ralisport Challenge 2
Chronicles of Riddick

And while arguably not as good, if you intend playing Halo 3, you may as well get Halo 2. The multi player isn't too bad on it either.

Ninja gaiden black

Game itself is pretty boring after a bit but it looks decent for an Xbox game. I bought it when it came out on Xbox, then sold it a month later because I bought a 6800GT for my PC and got a copy of Doom 3 free with it
