The 360 is backward compatible with the previous XBOX Version. So, yes.

Not necesarily, backwards compatibility on the 360 is done by software emulation and the emulators are created by Microsoft on a game by game basis, not by the game developer.

Thanks :) So, basically I have to harass Microsoft? It explains why only some games work on the 360 and not others.

While I'm there I'll get them to sort out Morrowind, I've been wanting to play that for ages, I'm at a loss after completing Oblivion.

I'd be surprised to see Morrowind on BC, any game that utilizes low level features is hard to run through emulation and a lot of low level techniques were used to get Morrowind running on the Xbox. It is a very good game though, although not quite as good as Oblivion.
