xbox backwards compatability with VGA

[Geffen]

Does anyone know if the following games work on the xbox 360 wit the VGA cable

Morrowind
Psychonauts
Jet Set Radio Future
Vice City

With the exception of Morrowind they are all listed as compatable with the console but no mention of whether they work with the VGA cable. For Morrowing i've seen it as compatable on the American list of games but not on the European list and again nether mention the VGA cable.

Thats something to bear in mind for me as I use the VGA cable. First time I have heard about compatability with older games on it! Cheers for the heads up!

I can confirm Morrowind does not work with VGA, since I found out the hard way

The PAL version doesn't work since it runs at 50Hz where as VGA will only take 60Hz, so I guess the NTSC version wouldn't have a problem? (except the region coding obviously).

I've just tried it and JSRF works fine in the 360 via VGA. Funny, I seem to remember it having issues running at 60Hz (via component 480p) on the original Xbox.

Edit: After a quick look around I found this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Xbox_games_compatible_with_Xbox_360#List_of_compatible_titles

with the old dash, it was sometimes the case that you'd have to connect up a composite cable, set the console to 50hz then plug the vga back in for it to work (I had to do this to get halo 2 to update and work at 60hz)

not sure if it would work with the new dash
