hey gays.. aaaa sorry, guys… I have a copy of quake 1, 2 and 3 working on my xbox! when I enter the options menu, the keys are set like this: walk forward: W, backpedal: S, strife left: A, strife right: D, fire: Left Mouse Button etc, but I use the right and left thumbsticks to move and look around and the right trigger to fire… so the games were ported from pc to xbox… you just need a program that converts the .exe (the pc executable file) to .xbe (the xbox executable file) or something like that…

there is a way to play pc games on the ps2, did noone every get that modchip from japan years ago?
i will find out details for the company (if still around), it worked great i had it myself, used to play max payne 2 PC on my ps2. Who's to say they will not make a version for the xbox 360?

maybe not atm, but i wudnt be suprised if someone makes a similar thing for the 360, or maybe if you have a modded xbox 360 you already can with extra homebrew software?? i dno, if there is that is the only way atm, but i havent herd of it yet.

@Unlimited Mind
Also forgot to comment…

Xbox 360 has USB slots… you could easily put a mouse and keyboard.. shabaam! you got a PC – just a thought.

Why is it such a ridiculous idea?
If someone could figure out how to reconfigure an xbox to play PC games – it would be a brilliant idea!

If anything MS should definitely consider doing it…

@Jon,
You can rig your PC (not that we approve) to play different games. This was the other way around playing PC titles in your Xbox/360.

@Brandon,
You cannpt play PC games even ones made by MS on your Xbox 360. I don’t know how or where people are getting that idea? It’s called a console for a reason. Just wanted to clear that up before I get an Email saying help I stuck a PC copy of ….. in my 360 and it won’t play help me make it work.

no you can’t cofigure an xbox 360 to work as a PC. That’s ridiculous!

A good theory to think about is if a PC can play Xbox 360 and/or Xbox games.

There is no way to use the Xbox 360 as a PC.

Can you configure an XBOX 360 to use it as a PC?
