Lots of those games were always playable on PC. Cool to see timesplitters though!

I guess these are the XBOX versions of the games. Because some of the titles are available on Steam already. And yes, if we add Xemu into the discussion, then most of these games should be playable already.

Xemu rules. I used it earlier this year to emulate Blinx 2 and JSRF
Really any of the emulators (Dolphin, RPCS3, PCSX2, OpenGOAL, Xemu) will make you feel like an all-powerful gaming god. At least that’s how I felt when I could drop a save state and pick up from pretty much any moment that I left off, speed up the gameplay so it’s in a kind of “fast-forward” mode, and other things.
