Imagine just get a WIN8 starter for 2.4K or HB for 5K & its ur XBOX360 i am dying to play GOW2&3 and HALOS also i think if it is true then XBOX360-2 will also be launched but neverthless it will be a sweet dream come true
Also waiting eagerly for LA NOIRE i think it will come in OCT-DEC has anyone played it in console

 

[Skud]

And will someone publish a hack to run xbox 720 discs also?

On a serious note, will the feature be ported to Win 7 also? Or we have to wait for another hack?

 

[comp@ddict]

So what's the end result? Console Game prices will decrease or PC Games increase?

console games become free (arr arr you pirates)

thats what will happen.

 

[Skud]

As if it's not already free.

 

[cyborg47]

Not possible.

Microsoft’s vice president of global marketing Mike Delman confirming:

"Live has been successful on the Windows Phone. Live will be built into the PC. It will be the service where you get your entertainment. We were talking about it — you will not just see consoles and handhelds at this show next year, this show’s going to morph into other devices."

Its live that is turned into a cross-platform feature. May be microsoft will port a few select games from 360 to PC but emulating the x360 on windows 8..nah!

Well, some negative report here:-

Why Microsoft Won't Emulate Xbox Games for Windows 8 - Tested

 

[Alok]

emulation of ps2 is still not fully completed.

And they r saying xbox 360 emulation.
compare x360 and ps2 then think.
let if they however manage to emulate then probably we will have to buy a super computer

 

[cyborg47]

Well, some negative report here:-

Yeah, we might see direct ports, but emulation wont be possible
Forget that 'put in the x360 disc and start playing' dream
Btw, I dont think we'll see halo reach either . May be halo 3 and ODST in one pack(it was rumored a few years ago, remember?) are a possiblity, coz they're old enough and use a similar engine..but no way we'll see reach.

 

[baccilus]

Kinect is coming to PC, this much is confirmed. They might bring Dance central to try and sell it.

 

[soumo27]

awesome^^ Any news of release date... I am very eager to try it...

 

[gameranand]

Emulation I don't think so. PS2 is still selling AFAIK so Microsoft won't want to just stop the sale of Xbox 360 even after 720 with this.

 

[tkin]

emulation of ps2 is still not fully completed.

Not necessarily, the guys at microsoft have the source codes for the games, emulating it will be very easy if they do it.

 

[vickybat]

Xbox live will be integrated in windows 8. Xbox 360 emulation may also be fully legitimate.

Source

 

[gameranand]

Well Mike Delman just said that live will be integrated which is still available as free download I guess as many games requires that. Or its is different ???? I don't really know much about that.
He didn't said a thing about making XBOX game to be played on 8.

 

[rchi84]

more wishware than ever vaporware at this point. There's no point in emulating the 360 natively in windows. absolutely no extra profit from a business standpoint, so why would MS even go there?

And windows doesn't require any magical oomph to sell brickloads of licenses. it's still comfortably leaps and bounds ahead of the rest of the pack combined, despite what rabid apple fanboys will tell you.

 

[JojoTheDragon]

Not gonna happen, uh ah.

 

[vamsi_krishna]

After few years.. we are going to emulate those games anyways.

Hopefully on Windows 8.
