xbox emulation isnt at the point where it can play commercial games well yet. you can download some homebrew games that work

Once again, I thought Xeon was built to play HALO and only HALO, and that it DOES in fact work for HALO... AM I mistaken here? and he did ask about legal games, which would be homebrew of course. I belive Hombrew is how they are making the emulators correct? just a thought.

xeon "runs" halo, but the graphics are all screwed up and you gotta have a modded xbox to "play" it... not my idea of commercial game playable

If you want to play Halo try the PC version.My friends that play FPS say it is better from the X-BOX one.

the halo version for xbox is quite a bit cheaper than it is for PC...i guess thats an ok reason

Also, I don't think the PC version has a split-screen co-op mode.

In any case, at this point it really doesn't matter as no X-Box emulation is at a very playable state yet.

well, the point was merely that Xeon was built for halo, and that upon initial release did in fact run it... How well, I don't know, as I don't have it (halo) and don't care to buy it - no xbox.
