Is it still possible to update a game on an Xbox 360? (slrpnk.net)

I recently got the itch to play the Fable series again. So I dug out my 360 and got it running again. Since I originally had Fable 2 and 3 through Game Fly I picked up some used copies. When I tried to load Fable 2 it said the save was from a newer version of the game, despite buying the version that came with the DLC.

I looked at my GameFly history and I only had 2 for a long weekend, and my son said I sent it back quickly because he was being a murder hobo in it.

I decided to start the game over, but it got me wondering if it was safe to connect the 360 to the net, and if I did if there would be updates available.

I have not tried loading Fable 3 yet, and I had 1 on the OG Xbox so I have no save data for it. But I am wondering if my passive income kept accruing in 3 over the last 11 years.

Passive income only accumulates in Fable 3 while the game is running. You'd only get the passive income with the game turned off in Fable 2.

Got everything update and checked out my Fable 2 save, I got $658,000 as soon as I logged in. I had no idea what I was doing, so I kept playing my new save.

Does Fable 2 run on the Xbox One or Series X? I think my 360 optical drive is dying, so debating getting a refurbished newer model.
