While platforms as recent as the PS3 and even the Switch now run very nicely in emulators, the original Xbox remained something like a spin on the side of the stage. So, it’s cool to see the xemu emulator making such solid progress.
Xemu’s V0.5 was recently released, and this video shows some of the games that can run in it, from large versions like Hate at not so big launches.
While the video above is promising, it also uses so many random / terrible games for one reason: most of the console library remains impossible to play in the emulator, so this is a progress video for a v0 version. 5 and not a triumphant full version.
If there is a multiplatform game of this generation that you are dying to try again, it is probably better to try the PS2 version, because the emulation is much more mature for that platform. But if it’s exclusively for the Xbox you’re looking for, stay tuned for further developments like this!
