    Default Play Xbox360 games on PC - Windows 8

    Play Xbox360 Games on PC – Windows 8

    The title says it all, you will be able to play Xbox360 games on your PC with Windows 8, Microsoft’s latest and greatest operating system.

    Although there isn’t much information about the features or limitations, one thing is for sure: You are able to play Xbox360 games by simply placing the game disk into your DVD tray.

    Remember, this is Microsoft we’re talking about. Something this generous doesn’t come without a price tag. To play your Xbox360 games online, you need to dish out some cash to access a ‘live’ feature, something similar to Xbox Live, but more tuned for PC’s.

    LoL.... makes sense. Xbox360 games aren't doing anything special so MS might just cash on all of the games once the console is outdated. Makes me wonder how hard it would be to emulate 360 games and why no emulator yet. OH.... the edram

    This can be convenient but i know that u have to still have a dawn good machine inorder to play theses games, so i think its best to just stick to buying the consoles

    I would support this move as long as windows 8 doesn't get locked down like a xbox360

    I agree with pezz, my 12 yr old cousin from country who loves xbox is getting crazy right now but think about the problems that could occur: price, a pc which is upgraded to the max with the latest updates, it may even be buggy but on paper it sure sounds like a good idea.

    I'd welcome this definitely. Waste for me to have both 360 and PC, one of them always gets ignored in a corner and it's never the PC. Now we can probably play some stuff that were 360 exclusive.
