psychoticDEMENTO Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 last time i checked, there wasn't any. and besides, u would need such a high-end system to play those games, it would be a crime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DigitalN. Posted January 9, 2004 Author Share Posted January 9, 2004 no it isnt a joke, since i cant afford an XBOX currently, since how much i have spent on my PC, i am only able to buy 2 games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Veteran Posted January 9, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 9, 2004 then don't buy the two games. save an extra $80 and buy an xbox (Y) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridgeburner Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 There's an XBox emulator avail on www.zophar.net, which currently can only run Halo, and it actually runs great on my system (check sig) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

.KICK Posted January 9, 2004 Share Posted January 9, 2004 Just buy an xbox, you wont be dissapointed, it'll be at least another 2 years before the xbox is fully emulated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markwolfe Veteran Posted January 9, 2004 Veteran Share Posted January 9, 2004 Just buy an xbox, you wont be dissapointed, it'll be at least another 2 years before the xbox is fully emulated I'd have to agree here. The XBox will be emulated. It runs on the same hardware as a regular PC. The biggest holdups are the OS installed and the controllers. XBoxes run on a stripped-down (read: optomized for speed) version of Win2k, if I recall correctly - so doing that on a PC would not be too hard, just takes a bit of time. The controllers can then be hacked in with code to accept input from any other device (or even a hardware adapter that *might* allow you to plug in an 'official' controller) Buy the unit, and borrow games from a friend. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure it isn't as easy as you're making out to be My point was that emulation is an inevitablity. It runs on the same basic hardware archetecure as 99% of home user's PCs. It's not like trying to run PS2 or Gamecube on a PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psychoge3k Posted January 12, 2004 Share Posted January 12, 2004 Theres one called Cubix, But I dunno how well it plays. Your best bet is to get a real Xbox. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
