The idea of playing Xbox Morrowind on a PC…
post
Lots of those games were always playable on PC. Cool to see timesplitters though!
I guess these are the XBOX versions of the games. Because some of the titles are available on Steam already. And yes, if we add Xemu into the discussion, then most of these games should be playable already.
Xemu rules. I used it earlier this year to emulate Blinx 2 and JSRF
Really any of the emulators (Dolphin, RPCS3, PCSX2, OpenGOAL, Xemu) will make you feel like an all-powerful gaming god. At least that's how I felt when I could drop a save state and pick up from pretty much any moment that I left off, speed up the gameplay so it's in a kind of "fast-forward" mode, and other things.
Its still good for preservation of art. Just because one platform is better or worse than another for a multiplatform game doesnt mean that only one should exist. All of them should be preserved, even if they are considered inferior nowadays.
Damn. Still waiting for Mechassault.
Tell me when they've dropped a capable 360 emulator that we can politely yoink from them
- Armed and Dangerous
- Disney’s Chicken Little
- The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind (also available with XBOX Game Pass)
- Grabbed by the Ghoulies (also available with XBOX Game Pass)
- Indiana Jones and the Emperor’s Tomb
- Red Faction II
- Secret Weapons Over Normandy
- Star Wars Battlefront
- Star Wars Battlefront II
- Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith
- Star Wars Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy
- Star Wars Jedi Knight II Jedi Outcast
- Star Wars: Jedi Starfighter
- Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic
- Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II – The Sith Lords
- Star Wars: Republic Commando
- Star Wars: Starfighter – Special Edition
- Star Wars: The Clone Wars
- Thrillville
- TimeSplitters 2
- TimeSplitters: Future Perfect
These join the four games already available on PC:
- BLiNX: The Time Sweeper (also available with XBOX Game Pass)
- Conker: Live and Reloaded (also available with XBOX Game Pass)
- Crimson Skies: High Road to Revenge (also available with XBOX Game Pass)
- Fuzion Frenzy (also available with XBOX Game Pass)
You can buy these through the XBOX app on your PC. They seem to be between $5 and $10 each, and function pretty much like the console versions. Multiplayer games also look like they retain that functionality, and ones with split-screen still have that as well. These appear to be faithful ports, and I wish they weren't locked to the XBOX ecosystem, but if you want to support efforts like this to bring older games to new generations, this is a way to do it, along with initiatives like the game conservation efforts at GOG.
