The problem with X-Box backwards compatability, is it's essentially the same as getting a PC game to run well on a Mac. You need about four to five times the processing power to do it well, unless you have amazingly good hardware acceleration support, something the Mac/PC emulators (the best of which Microsoft bought to use their techonology in the X-Box 2) haven't managed to reach yet.
