No. Just because it is made by Microsoft doesn't mean it has to play PC games. Note: Xbox games will not work on PC's aswell.

In order to make use of its superior hardware the Xbox video game system is designed only to play game discs licensed by Microsoft for the Xbox video game system. This does not include burned disks, PC game discs, or discs from other video game systems. The Xbox console can play DVD movies and compact discs with the official Compact Disc logo.

No! However, games are only included in the Normal (2 discs out a time) and above plans and are accessable for members who have been with DVD Direct for more than one continuous month. This is provided at no extra cost! [Return to The Top]

No and this includes demo discs from the Official Xbox Magazine. Additional info (thanks to Byron Hinson): Here is the official quote I got on it the other day from Microsoft. "The North American box will only play North American games. The regional encoding is set when it passes through certification and in to the authorized replicators.

Xbox games are designed to make use of the Xbox video game system's superior hardware and online gaming capabilities. It is not possible to play these games on a personal computer or any other video game system.

Depends upon the game. If it's a DOS game, try DOSEmu (apt-get install dosemu in Xebian to install). Afterwards, you'll likely need to run dosemu not as dosemu, but as xdosemu. If it's a Windows game, Wine (apt-get install wine) may *or may not* run it. Regardless, there is no 3-D support on the XBox, so all games will run at lower resolutions/details (assuming they run at all). Try searching around for a site regarding the particular game you want to run (Half-Life, for instance) for more info.

Necronomicon, like most conventions, offers a number of games, both tabletops and freeforms, from a range of categories. Most conventions will include some horror, science fiction, fantasy, and comedy. Some games will be run using a particular games system, although players rarely need to have rules knowledge, and others will be systemless.

Download disk images (e.g. .dsk, .nib, .2mg files) and use these as virtual disks to play the games on a PC or Mac via Apple II or Apple IIgs emulator software. Popular Apple II emulators include AppleWin and Apple Oasis. Normally disk images will be in .zip or .gz compressed form when downloaded. Use WinZip or a similar utility to uncompress these files. Download and uncompress the disk images of games you want to play. Then, transfer the images to your Apple II (or IIgs)-- e.g.

The Xbox 360 will be backward compatible with the old games - this is done using something called an "emulation profile" which tells the new console how to play your old game - one is needed for each game. The top 100 selling games will have their profiles on the Hard Drive so titles such as Halo 2, Forza, and Project Gotham Racing 2 etc will play fine on the new console. Games outside the top 100 will also be supported as additional profiles will be available to download.

Each region uses 2 separate ways to identify DVDs and games. All North and South American Xboxes use the NTSC format for DVDs and games, and DVDs use another type of format called the region code. If you are staying in the same general region you should be able to play games properly, but DVDs from that region will most likely not work.

Yes, you most certainly can. However, it is not possible to offer compatibility out of the box for all Xbox titles due to hardware conflicts between the two systems.

Games are more expensive and have a shorter shelf life than movie titles so we have made 1 game rented = 2 DVD movies or music titles. We have also made the decision to allow only game rentals start from a 3 plan so customers can also have movies alongside selected games. DVD plan you can choose to rent 2 games and 1 movie or music title or 1 game and 3 movie or music titles.

Unfortunately No, the North American box will only play North American games. The regional encoding is set when it passes through certification & in to the authorized replicators. North American Xbox systems will only play NTSC games, Japanese boxes will play NTSC-J games & Europe & the rest of the PAL territories will only play games marked with the PAL symbol.

Only if they are Linux games, and do not require 3d acceleration. Command and Conquer games are made for Windows, not Linux, and therefore will likely not work. You might be able to tweak WINE to get them to work, but the Xbox's limited memory will stifle your ability to play enjoyably.

Yes! The Intellivision Lives! CD-ROM, available now, lets you play over 50 of the original Intellivision games on your PC or Mac. Check the Intellivision Lives! page for more information. Usually the web site. The publicity surrounding the release of Intellivision Lives! resulted in some former Mattel and APh programmers we weren't in touch with contacting us. They have provided additional material and corrected errors; we have updated the web site accordingly.

You must purchase Xbox 360's VGA HD Cable. Official cable from Microsoft. You can get third party cable like Dragon 360 too, but if your monitor doesn't have VGA in port and/or your PC speaker doesn't have RCA in port, you'll have to buy separate adapters. Microsoft's official cable does include both adapters.

Xbox was designed with high-definition TV support specifically in mind. Xbox supports HDTV and TV resolutions up to 1920x1080 with the purchase of the High Definition AV Pack. The High Definition AV Pack supports HDTV RGB video and your choice of RCA Audio or Digital Audio over optical cable.

Screenlife games are designed to play on any device that supports DVD play. As you may know, with Xbox, a converter is needed for DVD play. With PlayStation, you will not need a converter. Screenlife games can also be played on a laptop if the laptop has updated DVD player software. If you find that your laptop software is not compatible with Optreve?, you can go to www.interactual.com for a free download of the optimal DVD software.

No. There is no such emulator. There is however there are emulator available to play PS1 games, N64, SNES, NES, MAME, NEO-GEO etc.

This depends heavily on whether or not the game is hosted in Microsoft's servers or on a private companies servers. Most likely, all games will be covered by the standard online price.

how do u get ozx memory to recognize my usb memory stick. i have a sandisk 256 and ozx say "NO FatX at drive" If your mem stick isn't formatted as FATX, then you need to start up your XBox to Microsoft's dashboard and insert your memstick. THe Dashboard will say the disk has been damaged and has been reformated. BE ADVISED: all of your data previously on your mem stick WILL be gone! I don't know about the 2004 Holiday Bundle, but most of the 2003 Holiday Bundles XBoxes *should* be v1.

Play-by-post is a way of playing D&D (or any roleplaying game) online without needing chat software or a specific meeting time. Basically, the DM makes a post to a thread describing what the players see/hear/experience, and then each player responds with his character's reactions. Posting times vary between game, from fast games that ask for players to post several times per day, to games that require only one post per week.

Yes. There are dozens of first-person shooters, strategy games, puzzle and adventure games, even board, and puzzle games. Several regions of the world have been devoted to role playing, and resemble medieval towns, or futuristic cities. The building and scripting system even enables Residents to create their own version of a MMORPG, including hit points, character stats, and all the other classic elements.
