Hi Now that I have vista and muti processor and Ati card. Most of the same equipment that in your Xbox and Xbox360. I would like to play some of the games for those two systems on my computer. I was hoping Vista would come with a emilator to run these games since look like to me Vista is part of the consil programming. Yes I know there are few chips that handle certain excutions that a computer does not have. But some how the main program is writen on a computer and ran first in order to get it out to one of your consels. To me a smart Ideal was to just include the emulator in vista. Why you ask. One some people would go out and upgrade there system just to play the xbox games. Yet they don't want to buy another consol unit. Also to me it would fill in the lack of games that vista can run in the pc comunitie and it would also increase Xbox game sells if the comintie knew they can run Xbox games on there pc. I know Xbox360 hardwere can interchange with the pc. THat was cool. But having a program to run Xbox and xbox360 games on the pc would be cooler. I know it all about sells and money. But like me why buy another consel machine when there is only 1 or 2 games out there I might ever play xbox game. Most of us hard gamers just wait till some over sea company puts out a add on card or a emulator that allows the pc user to run that consol software. Lots of emulators out on the web let a pc do this. and for me I like it. when I can throuw in a dreamcast cd or Any consel that uses a dvd or cd to excute a game and just play it off my computer instead buying that company system or consol. Save me money that I can use to buy the game and play it and don't have to set and switch from consol to consol to play. You could really convince a lot of none vista user in this gaming area why to upgrade to vista. Yes sell would drop for xbox and xbox360 in short term. But in long term sell would been made up in Games being sold much more faster. Then people going out to buy a xbox or xbox360. For instance like me. I upgrade my pc to match or excead the xbox360. Now I'm just waiting on a plug in card or emulator to come out and I be the most happy Vista user around. Because I would have the best of 2 world on one machine. Can you say Halo 3 on the PC. Come bring it on and let frag. You Xbox360 user. And when they find out I'm playing them off my pc they will go Oh my. I been fragged by a pc user. and all I had to do is buy the Dvd xbox360 game. Not spend my hard earn money on another consol. I guess someone in Microsoft sells department don't like having your company bring in extra cash or they would thought of this too. Oh well your lost and some 3rd party gain. Laterz. C.O.G. Michael
