You heard it right: a native Xbox 360 app for your Windows machine.

Stay tuned as wee try to dig more information in the upcoming months.

Shame of having an Xbox?  You some kind of super hardcore Sony fanboy or something?

Not that I have an Xbox or am planning to get one in the foreseeable future either, but I definitely don't see how it's shameful to have an Xbox.

calm down man

i don't mean anything by it >_>

: | heh

Predicted this. : P

well...
while everyone else seems disappointed

I'm suddenly more interested in xbox 360 games assuming this is true...
I have nothing against console games, I'm just always too glued to the PC to play them. Now that I can play them on PC, I'll look to buying new xbox games and I'll be glad to finish some old ones I've had but never actually played.

microsoft win?


I also wonder how long anti piracy will be able to prevail with windows playing xbox games
and in terms of online/xbox live support, "hello hackers"
