Instructions

1 Download an Xbox emulator. Only two are available at the moment: Xeon and Cxbc. Both are available online.

2 Open the downloaded file. It is a .zip file and may open immediately depending on your computer preferences.

3 Open the emulator.

4 Put the game disk into your hard drive, “Halo” or “Turok Evolution,” depending on the emulator.

5 Load the game file on the emulator. Go to File and scroll down to Load.

6 Play the game. There will be some glitches, as these emulators are far from perfect.

Tips & Warnings

Both Cxbx and Xeon only play commercial games and demos. They do not play game roms. You must have the actual game disk for them to work.

Xeon only plays the Halo NTSC version, and Cxbx only plays Turok Evolution and Xbox demos.

Cxbx

This may not actually be an emulator to some people but everyone considers it one. Cxbx’s goal is to convert a game from an Xbox executable to a native Windows executable. This may sound bold but it’s already happening and in theory it’s quite possible.

Are you sure this is Xbox 360 and not the Original Xbox?
