>Play Xbox 360 games right on Windows using Microsoft’s official emulator. Cool!>Only supports Windows 11Nah—I might as well just use the Xenia emulator. It lets you change the game resolution, and you can run pirated copies directly.
welcome back old friend
So people can finally get fable on PC.
>>735009554This.
and the new Xbox can play PC games too. Sony and Nigtendo are SHITTING BRICKS
>>735009419>—
>>735009419it's gonna be subscription only.
>>735009419I should've been the xbox/sony/nintendo CEO!Years ago i said they should come out with OFFICIAL emulators for PC where you needed an account to log in, buy and run their games, like steam but an emulator.That way they don't make sales on hardware but still make sales on games, they get the PC market, don't have to work on porting games and still own their little closed garden. Plus they eliminate some piracy.
>>735009554>fableFable 1 has a Remake version.Fable 3 is available on PC.Only Fable 2 needs an Xbox 360 emulator.https://store.steampowered.com/app/288470/Fable_Anniversary/
>>735009419Ah yeah? Whats the catch asshole.
>>735009419I can't believe I didn't question why they didn't just do this sooner.It gives them incredibly easy goodboy points with nerds and software preservation groups alike.This is assuming, of course, they do it in any good faith and don't instead use it as an excuse to scan your computer for "illegal" roms/isos and either>flag your system>mass delete them>demand you pay full MSRP for the offending articlesBut that sounds like more effort than its ever going to be worth so I actually do believe they would just do it in good faith since goyim would pay for remasters that just run ISO files with upscaling on regardless of whether they can just google "COD BLOPS 1 ISO FULL DOWNLOAD REAL" and get the same experience for free.
>>735009776Have to engage with their storefront/launcher instead of Steam.
>>735009587>new Xbox can play PC games too.Steam Machine
>Xbox app
>>735009419Reminder this is a shill thread
>>735009419Man... that would suck for the based Xenia devs lol.>>735009554It would be nice to play Fable 1 with a gamepad again.>>735009734That remaster is fucking garbage.
And where would we buy the games then? MS Store is a mess I don't want to touch.
>>735010202fyi everytime this is posted 3 more indians spawn
>>735010380>MS StoreXBOX PC APP storeLOL
>>735009419>Only supports Windows 11I'm good.
>>735009419>Official emulator>Only on w11>Picrel has been available on Linux for yearsWhat century does Microcock think we're living in?
So, let's assume I have Windows 10 and can actually get some ISO files for Xbox360 games. What emulator should I use? I would actually enjoy some Armored Core 4/FA.
>>735010765Xenia
>>735010765Xenia works well with windows 10 (ignore the recommended req on the GitHub, I'm running w10 with a 3060 and an i5 no problem):https://github.com/xenia-canary/xenia-canary/wiki/Quickstart
>>735010618Windows 11 is a free performance boost over 10. I don't get why people hate it.>but ads, tracking, and optional AI!Windows 10 had all that shit too and you said you'd never upgrade from 7 over it and yet look at you now.
>>735011065If you have to pick between gonorrhea and aids, pick the lesser pozz.
>>735011065By "free performance boost" you mean they actively make games run poorer on 10. They'll do the same with 11 when 12 comes out
>>735011003>>735010965But it claims that I cannot run from ISO files and need some .xex instead.
>>735009419I remove the Xbox app on my Win10 machine to combat bloat and the emulator will run on that, supposedly only running legitimate purchsed games. Not for me then. But I'm all for more games for PC. Nice of them to do it. Maybe the new CEO isn't that bad if that's the move she's making and supports. Good news for PC gamers.
>>735011165>they actively make games run poorer on 10Source games run without stutters on 11, on 10 they all have this weird inescapable microstutter since the 2017 update.That was reason enough alone to use 11 over 10.And if you have any modern CPU, 10 is actively blocked from using it properly, so using 11 is a no-brainer unless you like games running on e-cores instead of performance cores.And modern AAA games that use DirectStorage load faster on 11 than 10.
We already have an Xbox and Xbox 360 emulator on PC lolI've played Lost Odyssey and Rumble Roses XX on Xenia, and Star Wars Obi-Wan on Xemu
>>735009419>digital librarySupport the actual discs or no buy!
>>735009776Made by ai coding : ^)
>>735011196You need to convert the iso to xex format.
>>735011281>Source gamesI can run source games on my fucking aged windows 7 laptop.
>>735009554>finally fable 2 on pci'm getting hard already
>>735009734Fable Anniversary is ass to begin with, but is also based on the inferior TLC version that ruined the story by making Jack into an ancient evil instead of the land's greatest hero, wanting even more power when he already had it all. Windows never got the original version of Fable.
>>735010765Xenia Canary or Xenia Edge.Xenia Canary has changes that are being implemented faster compared to normal Xenia.Xenia Edge is Xenia Canary, but better. It has with proper GUI, Vulkan support, auto optimized settings. Canary had to port back some of Xenia Edge improvements.Keep in mind that running games at increase resolution is very performance heavy with Xenia.With Edge's Vulkan renderer it's actually faster rendering higher resolution, but it's more buggy, so for now you should keep to the default DX12.
>>735011583>auto optimized settingsby that I mean that it automatically loads recommended settings for each game, if it's known that game has issues with some default settings or runs better with other settings.Also you can change cheats/patches via GUI.
>>735009419*exclusively with xbox goy pass super premium ultimate
>>735011196.xex is Xbox equivalent of .exeYou just need to extract the iso. You can do that with https://github.com/XboxDev/extract-xiso
>>735011065I have Win11 at work and it's fucking garbage, don't get it why some people actually likes it.>everything lags, menus, Explorer, whatever>16gb laptop that have 8gb already in use after restart, holy shit>absolute garbage Start Menu ripped straight from phones because retarded zoomer coders don't know anything else - huge wasted space (disabling "recommend" section leave goatse wide gap, for example), tinyass icons, no longer having easily customizable tiles, etc, etc. Win10 Start was perfect and it's no longer available to restore, even with registry tweaks>speaking of registry tweaks - it's required to restore functional right click menu because some retards thought that having multiple clicks to extend "more options" menus for everything is good (probably latte faggots who codes this only knows Macs and don't even use right mouse button)>garbage sound that curiously only play well one kind of music - Indian one>unnecessary problematic to setup default applications to force people to give up and use MS garbage ones (default image viewer back from XP was fast and simple, suitable for 95% tasks, unlike this shit they try to push, Photos can't even get sorting properly and try to catalogue and index all images in folders)>tons of games that worked just fine on Win10 either breaks completely or work noticeably worse on Win11Win11 is pure garbage. You won't change my mind. I stay on Win10 despite having 13th gen Intel CPU, that should tell you how much I'm disgusted with this shit.
>>735009419That’s pretty coolLet’s wait and see how it actually runs though
>>735009419Lol I just got Xemu and Xenia set up on my machine too. Downloaded all my favorite exclusives, which were fewer than I remember since most Xbox games got PC ports, but still. I've been having a blast playing MechAssult, JSRF, Forza and Fusion Frenzy. I've been dying to replay the 360 version of Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, but apparently the Xenia devs refuse to make the emulator compatible with it which is annoying. Here's hoping Xbox emulation can finally catch up with Nintendo and Sony emulation.
>>735010087>Xbox GaaS pricing in the Xbox appJust kill me already.
>bharat_nation
>>735009419>through the Xbox appgay
>>735009554I mean technically you already can. Just Open the Xbox app on Windows and select Fable on Game Pass. Requires the 30 dollar jewscription tho
>>735009419Call me when they let me actually put the disc in and run it.
>>735009419>Only supports Windows Jeet VersionNice try. I won't update to 11, niggers.
By the way, 360 recompilation is getting very good recently.So now the question how good is official 360 emulation going to be on PC.Is it going to support resolution scaling? Is it going to support online play?
>>735011281>And modern AAA games that use DirectStorage load faster on 11 than 10.aren't there only like 3 games that use direct storage on PC? Ratchet and clank. Forspoken, horizon 2, what else?
>>735012067>30 dollars????Wasn't Gameslop like 15 dollars a month?
Will I finally be able to play Gears 2 and 3 on PC? Xenia leaves a lot to be desired and they are clearly never making a collection of the earlier games and I'd rather not them making a butchered remastered version of those games.
>>735012293They upped it as we all knew they would
>emulator>natively
>>735012581360 BC games are actually recompiled to x86, so yes, they run natively.
>>735012659stop being smart this is illegal
>>735009776>Only supports Windows 11
>>735012659Expound on this please. You're saying when you run a 360 game on a bone/sex it recompiles to x86?
>>735009419but the good games already got remastered
I will not buy it without a disc drive.
>>735013456No, Microsoft actually recompiled the games themselves, so you download games you play natively on Xbone and SeX.They developed their own, largely automated tool to turn 360 PowerPC executables into x86 executables.I guess if they want, they can modify some values to allow for enhancements, like Fallout 3 actually had increased resolution on Xbone.
>>735009419Ooorrr they could just let users install various windows versions on the helix?
Someone will extract or reversr engineer that shit quickly for sure and will make other unsupported titles run too. Scene backported MS software emulator from current Series consoles back to 360 so if thats possible then when they will release it on PC someone will make it standalone not attached to Xbox app. Also XEMU and Xenia will become redundant then lol.
>>735009419oops, me and chatgpt reverse engineered it and now its open source and works on linux too without the ads and transaction begging.
>>735013786I doubt the combability's that good. they usually make these emulators bespoke for a game. I'm sure it can run more than one game but what's the point if the comp isn't 100%
NINJA GAYDEN 2 BABYYYY
>>735009554PC Gamers don't deserve Fable.Phil! Take it away from the-Phil?...
>>735009419>Win11No thanks i dont want a bloatware ai
>>735013832It depends. As I said community might be able to fix issues with certain games and MS emulator already allows to run and play "unsupported" titles. Some are fully playable without any issues while some have game breaking bugs and shit. Compatibility is actually good and over 80% of both 360 and first Xbox library are playable.
Finally. Panzer Dragoon Orta
>>735012293They increased the price for day one release tier. The ancient shit like Fable is most likely in the $15 tier.
>>73501390811 LTSC doesn't have any of the AI garbage.
>>735013832I think that's just a Nintendo issue. The emulators they use to run OG Xbox and 360 games on the Xbox One have always been pretty good
>>735013972Oh, and PC only game pass is still $16 with day one releases
>>735013786There's no chance they 'backported' anything. how the fuck would they do that.
>>735014001but still has the bloatware ram shit as garbage pc breaking updates.and it hates retrogaming exe's
Are the digital 360 games still available to buy? I wonder about delisted games I bought such as GTA San andreas will it acknowledge those?
>>735014089im pretty sure they converted all san andreases to that mobile port they did.
If i had to guess Microsoft will probably allow this for all windows users but have exclusive AI features like super resolution, fps boost etc on their own xbox hardware to make it a selling point
>>735011065I will gladly sacrifice a few fps in vidya if it means not having to deal with Windows 11.
Crackdown 1 finally. surprised that one isnt getting a fan recomp
>>735009419Ill pirate the emulator
>>735009419>getting rid of the last console selling feature Xbox has at this point>the last remaining true exclusives Xbox had will no longer be exclusiveI was already going to leave Xbox for PlayStation and they just keep making it easier for me but it’s still depressing seeing all that wasted potential and all the pandering to pcgroids. Literally nothing exciting has come to the console ever since the BC list stopped getting new additions. Fuck this company
>>735009419Thank God.
>>735009419hopefully someone cracks it and you can play whatever the fuck you want.
>>735014071>till has the bloatware ram shitThey stripped it pretty bare. No Microsoft store, no xbox app or other trash (unless you reinstall them by yourself). They even removed the TPM requirement so you don't have to mess with Rufus for that.>pc breaking updatesLTSC doesn't get feature updates like the regular cattle editions, only security ones. It's basically what 11 should've been. If you have a Geforce card and don't want to mess with Linux then 11 LTSC is pretty much the only way forward as Njudea is dropping the driver support for windows 10 later this year.
>copying NintendoIntradesting. Let's see if Xbots are as stupid as Nintendo fans and pay good money for shit they already bought
>>735011065Win11 just bricked a ton of desktop PCs because it revoked its own access to the C: drive.
>>735014337The rumour explicitly states that it will support your current library so its a free feature. Its not like PlayStation where you have to pay for PS+ to play emulated PS2 games.
>>735014401>tfw still on win 10I refuse to upgrade. Maybe it's time to switch to linux soon.
>>735014334>nvidia dropping driver supportam i supposed to be mad about that? i haven't upgraded my driver for a very long time by now
>"emulators" made by vibe coding pajeets and only for microslop windows 11Lmao
>>735009419>emulatorsFaggot shit. Native versions or you won't get my money.
>>735010648Yeah, why would anyone pay for 360 emulation when they can use the emulator that can handle five games out of the entire library all with graphical glitches out the ass, and hasn't made any progress for ten years?
>>735009419>run natively on pc>through the Xbox appSo it's not native if you need another program?
>>735011065I'm never touching w11, I never touched windows 8/8.1I'm fine with w10 and I can already play, watch and do everything I want with it, and from the looks of it I'll be sticking with 10 for a very long time.If all else fails i'll jump to steam os since i'm already familiar with it through steam deck and it does everything I want as well, if I need to move on to something else i'll stick with something close to steam os if I need to. Either MS gets their indian shit together or i'll never try their newer stuff again. I find most modern games shit so this won't have a big impact on me.
>>735014297Why?
>>735014054They did negro. Look up XefuSpoofer.https://consolemods.org/wiki/Xbox_360:Original_Xbox_Games_Compatibility_List
>>735013953>360
>>735009419i'm sticking to Windows10, thanks
>>735014334>Njudea is dropping the driver support for windows 10 later this year.Is there a version of Windows 11 that never updates and has no bugs?I’m sick of Windows 11 constantly trying to update whenever I’m connected to the internet.Plus, every update brings new bugs.I really hope Microsoft will release a Windows 11 version specifically for gamers.No AI, no bloatware—just a clean, stripped-down version with all the useless features that slow down gaming performance removed.
>>735015154Oh so no original XBOX included? Damn
I was stuck with 11 when I got my prebuilt so I may as well take advantage of this, most of my 360 games were digital though lol
>>735014054if some guy can crack denuvo on day 1 they can do whatever with enough time
>>735015225It is included. You still can buy some OG Xbox Games on store. I recently got Otogi games. Phantom Dust is completly free too for example.
I hope that when it comes out we get people hacking it so it'll run any Xbox or 360 games, this will basically blow up the emulation scene and will allow any android devices to play them on the go, it'll be crazy good.
>>735011065>Windows 10 had all that shit too and you said you'd never upgrade from 7 over it and yet look at you now.kek this, always the same shit
>>735014001the one thing that might make me consider windows11 is built-in battletested sandboxing.it's nuts we still have to be afraid of running exe files on windows after all this time. should be able to specify exactly which folder a exe can access, exactly which folders it has tried to access (etc) without downloading 3rd party stuff.should also have a "Run as Fake Administrator" on the right-click menu to make the exe believe it has elevated privileges but actually it is just sandboxed and we can check which folders it tries to write to etc.
bump bump bump twitter threads MUST go up
>>735011065>Windows 10 had all that shit too and you said you'd never upgrade from 7 over it and yet look at you now.it got better. waiting until win11 gets better, thanks for beta testing.win11 has nothing to offer, not that i've seen. semi-imaginary "free performance boost" can go take a hike, win10 at least had a better task manager than win7.
If it is perfect emulation, I am down. Need a good way to play The Darkness. The PS3 emulator doesn't do great with the game.
>>735014623I'm just letting you know, dawg. I don't expect those fuckwits at google to keep chromium up on 10 for much longer either and that's going to be a bigger blow to an average gaymer (tm) than having specific driver game profiles.>>735015205Read the rest of the post and the reply chain.
>>735009587Nintendo lives on exclusives, and even if/when the Switch 2 gets hacked/emulated, there's still a big enough customer base of people who will actually buy the hardware and games.

>>735016935That is assuming they make all games compatible and not just the ones that they already have. Obi-Wan is weirdly the only star wars game that isnt.
>>735016935This reminds me that I should boot up the ole series x and play through the splinter cell games. I have all of the og xbox versions on disk. They're all 4K too with the exception of the first which is 4:3 aspect ratio.

>>735012151>By the way, 360 recompilation is getting very good recently.These """recompilations""" are just using Xenia, that's why there is so many of them in such a short time. Funny how so many brainlets think they are getting native ports.

It wasn't exactly the greatest before that but it's fucked how awfully slow it is now.Thankfully it was just little more than a work laptop and I got a new one at work for free otherwise I would be mad as shit. I'm riding out 10 as long as I have the option. Maybe they'll vibecode themselves back into something usable, Ha, ha.
>>735014401People all over the place have issues with every type of system. Windows 11 is the only one that's getting articles written about them, because retards like you are panicking. I've never had any issues with Windows 11 and you wouldn't have any either if you weren't retarded.

Microsoft will incentivize illegal software distribution? Anything to stop Linux from overtaking its market share I guess. Pathetic that they have to resort to such lows but the masses will probably praise them instead of seeing through them.
>>735009419what's worth playing on those console that doesn't already have an official pc port? just queers of war? i know there was that one xbox SMT game but i doubt they're putting any effort into make sure that works on the emulator

>>735024102Barkley 2 never ever.
>>735009419Is it only for Xbox exclusives or any games that were on it? It'd be neat if I could play some game stat were on consoles only on my PC, like MMA sports games.
>>735009776Games for Xbox Live™
>>735016935I would pay for a crackdown port and I'm not trying to be funny
>>735009419Microjeet never again. They killed Tango Gameworks and many other studios. If you keep giving them money they'll keep killing studios.
Fable 2 has a decomp project but it'll be ages if ever if it works, so it'd be nice if there was a better emulator for this game. Xenia is kinda weird with it.
>>735009419Xenia already runs NG2 which is the only game in 360 library worth emulating
>>735010217Why would it suck for Xenia Devs? They did it for free.There is a number of people who would keep using Xenia out of spite or to continue using pirated roms anyway
Is Condemned 2 playable on Xenia?
>>735024226Remember the official microslop android emulator?
>>735024245>caring about achievements
>>735009419Hoping to play the Xbox "arcade" games that need to be online.You can play Bloodforge(meh) on Xenia but not Spartacus Legends so far that I'm aware of
>>735025087Achievements were honestly what was started on Xbox360; They were called Trophies on Sony: Just like the wives they got. (Trophy wives, get it?)
>>735018793>Unreal Championship 2>PC port
>>735009419This is what I've always wanted. I never wanted to own a 360 because of the RROD bullshit. Now I can finally catch up on the games I've thought about for years. Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Ninja Gaiden Black, Conker Live and Reloaded... here I come.
>>735016935>Jet Set Radio Future>Jet Set Radio Future (JSRF) is not natively playable on Xbox One or Series X|S, as it is not part of the backward compatibility program. Damn, RIP.
>>735024997You mean Windows Subsystem for Android? What was so bad about it?
>>735009776>subscritpion to use it>have to buy the game again>only can play for 1 hour a day to save server bandwith>will only emulate games made in the last five years leaving the good games behind>coded with AI

>>735009419I'm sure they'll figure out a way for you to pay for all your games again.
>>735011390thank you gemini very cool
>>735025261I'm sure this post probably sounded more clever in whatever brown language you normally speak.
>>735025746It's not wrong though. Literally just extract the iso and open the xex file in xenia.
>>735025878Cry more eternal renter.
>>735009554Finally, Xenia was so shit
>>735015336Phantom dust has native version on windows dude and it's free
>>735009419>>Only supports Windows 11a fork will be made in a week for previous windows and linux you underestimate how good programmers are in the emulation sphere
You guys seriously believe this has any chance of it being good? If it's anything like it was on console, it will be limited to only approved games for whatever abritary reason (I do not buy the "licensing" bullshit). The feature compatibility will be all over the place. People kept praising Sonic Unleashed on Xbox Series X was the best way to play that game because the performance boost, but the resolution boost other games had didn't apply to it for whatever reason. Thank God for the decomp making that option irrelevant. Not to mention it's a Microsoft release so it's going to be tied to the Microsoft Store and all of its bullshit.I doubt it will be any better than what we currently have from the community.
>>735009419Sounds like a nice idea until you realize it's Microsoft and they probably need MS account and/or other stuff. It's not going to be something you'll just install around your disks. Most likely MS Store app with encrypted directories just like the XB App etc. eg. it's going to be trash
I'm sure autists will just take it and make it to where I don't need to deal with Microsoft bullshit.
>>735026974If it works well, it can be reverse engineered to help with real emulator dev, it's not all bad. That said, I wonder if the jeets there can hope to write a good emulator. They should have a huge advantage due to having access to all the code and documentation from xbox, but on the other hand, you know. They are MS devs.
>>735020504Both japanese and american versions, with all extra contents unlocked.
>>735009419>windows 11STOP
>>735025604>BecomesNigga, there s only a handful of games that xenia can run properly,
>>735025427All that is bullshitYou just have to remember how "good" the xbox 360 RC went: They released some games and ditched it. Mostly because the owners said to MS to fuck off, since you can see some games that can´t be used on RC, that misteriously, have an "updated" version (MGS5, DOA 5/6,Dragons dogma DA...).Do you think they will buy more licencing to bring more titles?
>>735026767microsoft will C&D them
>>735009734Fable 3 no longer works. It makes calls to the GFWL servers that no longer exist.
>>735011336The problem with that, is that you need special DVD drives in order to read the xbox360 disks.
>>735027946so?
>>735025394I have 30 xbox360 phisical titles and can only run like 15 or so on the series
>>735009419These emulators are worthless for preservation unless programmers can unhook it from microsoft apps. You never had to login to your Microsoft account to play these old games offline back on the OG xbox
>>735009419>windows 11Yeah, nevermind.
>>735028158they're going to be shutdown and won't be able to work unless updated
>>735009419But I have no DVD Player anymore!
>>735026767a fork? what the fuck are you talking about.
>>735028280It will be an UWP app, that or they will "repack" each game with the emulator itself
>>735028479Digital only crap. I doubt you will eventually be able to use discs as jets are too lazy
>>735028727Retard UWP is dead
>>735028735A normal DVD drive wont work, cant read the place where they put the protection on the old disks
>>735009419Cool. I can finish the dishwasher duology now.
>>735028830Can you even convert old 360 physical discs to online copies or it's impossible?
>>735028814Yeah... dead, You kknow they still release games on UWP, right? that anouncement was that they are not developing the UWP framework anymore, not that they are not using it.
At least PC bros can finally play Ninja Gaiden Black and NG2other than that, what's the point? Its not like the entire library is accessible. Its just what the Series X can play.
>>735028932You can, but you need an specific variant of a Lite-on drive, unless they created another way, but last time I ripped one was like 15 years ago.
>>735028505how can you not know what a emulator fork is
>>735029038>>735028932Wait, don´t remember correctly, but you could rip the installation of the game, wich is the full game itself usually, and that would count... maybe. Then you only would need to plug a HDD from the console to a pc.
>>735029027To fool retards.
>>735009419That's cool but I'll beleive it when I see it>Nah—I might as well just use the Xenia emulatorAnon you don't get it, the reason Xbox is so hard to emulate is because it has a perfect storm of DRM just under the hood that's layers upon layers of encrypted code. This won't JUST be an emulator for Windows 11, this means every single project making a 360 emulator can fish the keys out of this thing's memory and make an even better version of it.I don't trust vibecoded jeetware even 1% to work, but I do trust it to break and reveal everyone its secrets. This should be titled "Free Xbox 360 games coming for linux soon".
>>735009419Wow so I can just play shittier PC ports?
>>735029027>Its not like the entire library is accessible.Yet>other than that, what's the point? The differences in the backward compatibility is the mechanism of which it operates. This will get reverse engineered to the other 360 games given time and on better emulators.
>>735009419So... Microsoft is once again taking away your reasons to own an Xbox.
>>735016935>Still LifeIs xbox port different compared to pc version?
>>735029521>YetWhen was the last time they added any tittle to the RC catalog? 2 years after Xbone launch, less?
>>735029521>yetThe would require the emulator to be open source. Because Xbox had to actually hire and fund a backwards compatibility team that tinkered each individual game to work properly and get new games on the store and BC list.Then Xbox fired them all. We haven't had a new BC game on Series X in like 3-4 years.Face it, it's just going to be the previously existing Series X list, and thats it. At least Gears 2 looks great in 4k 60fps. And there are some obscure titles like Gunvalkyre and stuff, but this will never run the full library of OG Xbox games.
>>735009625>Plus they eliminate some piracy.It would have been the exact opposite. RPCS3 wasn't very good for a long time because it's hard work reverse engineering a complex beast like the PS3. If Sony made an official emulator easily available it would be a week, two tops until it gets cracked to run anything at all and then within a month or two it would be reverse engineered and a fork of RPCS3 that's got all the sony proprietary knowledge to fill the massive gaps would come out.Sony made official emulators for the PSP to run PS1 games and what happened? An injector was created within days that would let you put any iso you wanted over the top of destruction derby.
>>735009419Do you think they wrote it in Rust with Claude? Will it work on ARM Surfaces? Surface Box 360 when?
>DOA3/DOAX>Timesplitters 2Would actually reinstall the xbox app for these games alone.
>>735029702Modders have extended the emulator in the 360 to support more games. The official emulator is a filthy pile of hacks in itself and most of the time unsupported games are simply unsupported because of that retarded licensing deal Microsoft struck instead of doing their job. And even broken games are usually broken in manageable ways so further hacks were created to support the unsupported.Open source would make the job 1000x easier, but it's clearly not necessary.
>official xbox emulationbeen wanting to play touge-r for a while
>>735029702>The would require the emulator to be open sourceHas this EVER stopped any existing emulator developer?None of these consoles are open source. By bringing it to PC, they just made emulator makers jobs easier.
Phantom Breaker 1 is still broken on xenia.
>>735030130>DOA3Works fine on Xemu, Ultimate too. However it lacks the pressure sensitive/analogue buttons so you must use digital. Same with DOA2 the last time I bothered with PCSX2.Even when they add official emulation you're not getting the pressure sensitive/analogue buttons back because the backwards compatible 360 didn't have it for DOA3/U either.
>>735009554>love fable 1>still have box set>friend had fable 2 on his 360>played it once for like an hour and never again>sold 360 long before 3 aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
>>735030965Haven't seen a tripfag in years. Fuck off.
>>735009776need to buy it on the microsoft store lol
>>735029521How are you going to play JSRF? They can't distribute it digitally because they don't have the music licensing rights and they're impossible to get now. It isn't going to run off the xbox disc.
>>735031153sorry but i like to have a searchable post history on 4chan. it makes things easier for me, the FBI, and my followers.
>>735009419thisnothing will make me install 11
>>735011065
>>735009419>digital library>ms store>xbox appnopealso not all the games are backwards compatible, there is a fuckton missing and they aren't even doing more...

>>735009419if it's just that unoptimized piece of shit xenia with an updated UI they can fuck off to hell. I want a silky smooth framerate and low CPU/GPU usage when running games 20 years old in 2026.

>>735032260https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1GfFxRmBXQVhebhC3rcadVxr17XowZLoB Just searched viva piñata pc and it lead me to a reddit thread, where you can get this link... dunno how legit can it be...
>>735034196No, I mean that's an actual thing that focuses on performance, decntish UI and Vulkan
>>735034369don't know anon, last time I tried xenia my laptop almost exploded. I can run p5 and demon's souls on rpcs3 but it's also an abysmal emulator for different reasons.
>>735009554Finally Brute Force will be back.
>>735009419>This could let you run your X360 games natively on PCCool if true.In reality, what I'd expect, is a selection of games that already have PC ports and there being some sort of identification system to recognize the games you own so their PC versions can be unlocked or something of that sort.I doubt they'll suddenly let us run X360 exclusive games on PC.>through the Xbox appI'll just stick to Xenia then, thanks.I disable that whenever I install Windows and have no desire to reenable it or format, so.
>>735009419>only on W11Fucking called it, the only reason microjewsoft held off from releasing their emulator earlier on previous windows OS for so long was because they were holding it off to tie it directly with their jeeted AI spyware/surveillance operating system aka w11.
>>735009419Might be worth it for XNA games since they'll never be playable on Xenia
I'd love to put another 500 hours in the Guitar Hero games so this is great news.Also, Viva Pinata.

>>735009419>Pirat_NationHas ANYTHING this street shitter retard posts ever not been made up bullshit?
>>735009419Emulation is the domain of poorfags, no matter how much cope they spew trying to deny it. Microsoft wouldn't do Xbox emulation for free, it'll be some deeply integrated Windows service DRM'd out the ass with a price tag, and the poorfags ain't gonna pay for it.
>>735022849>Windows 11 is the only one that's getting articles written about them, because retards like you are panicking.or because it's the most-used OS in the world, retard
>>735009554Fable 1 has been on PC for 20 years
>>735039494it's simple, you pay $49.99 on the xbox store to download an 18 year old emulated game
Xenia still has compatibility issues. DOA Xtreme 2 for example renders water and shadows incorrectly for example.If Microsoft drops an emulator that can play anything that would be fantastic since it would be leagues ahead of where Xenia currently is, but I doubt they’re doing that.
>>735040396its literally all true but he never includes source because he is a FAGGOT
>>735009776microsoft won't allow this without the consent of the ip holder, and ip autism is like 90% of the reason why some 360 era games haven't been ported yet.
>>735032260you can crack gfwl out of the game in 5 seconds lol. it's even a legacy gfwl game meaning you can reuse the same code form other gfwl games over and over. i bet you never even tried to get the game playing on pct. stacked the achievements on gfwl a few years ago
>>735018560Not the same Halo experience.
>>735009419Aaaaand... will these let me pop my Xbox or 360 discs into the DVD tray and load them up? Or are they going to try to charge me again for games I already own?DOA

>>735009419finally i can play pic again
>>73504230799% chance it won't and will be online only copies
Can't wait for the news of only 1/4 of the games being available, since they had to redo the licensing agreements for games involving music.
>>735009419What about shit like Red Faction Gurrilla that I owned on 360 digitally and wasn’t allowed to play on Xbone despite being capable of 360 emulation itself?
>>735009776Spaghetti code and telemetry
>>735042743What gets me is that they not only changed it, but then also just ended up making the original choice WORSE and then doing a WORSE version of it.Chamber of Fates ending? It's all metaphorical as you can become everything Jack ever dreamed of at the cost of the last shred of your life before his influence, and you get almighty POWER. Dragon ending? Becoming Jack is literal, and there's no real power benefit to it, but also hey we're gonna make the Sword of Aeons WORSE than a gift shop greatsword
Based Spencer.
Will they know it's an .iso downloaded from the internet?
>>735009419That's cool.I would unironically pay for an external USB drive that could read my original Xbox and 360 discs on PC.
