Halo 3 is close to being fully emulated, video comparison between PC DX12 and original X360 versions

DSOGaming writes: "Halo 3 is a game that a lot of PC gamers wanted to play (especially since Halo 1 and 2 came out on our platform) and it appears that this will be possible in 2019 via the Xenia Xbox 360 emulator. YouTube’s ‘Emulators for PC’ has shared a video comparing the original X360 version with the emulated Xenia version using the DX12 API."

It is weird how low poly it looks without textures!

Halo 3 is overrated. It has like the worst graphics in AAA games compared to other games that were released around the same time. Nobody cares about Halo anymore.

WombBat1955d ago (Edited 1955d ago )

Lol no.

Halo 3 brought forge, theater, solid gameplay, story, and fantastic music. History will remember it fondly.

While Halo doesn't have the power it once did, it still sells exceptionally well, and it is one of the things us PlayStation converts miss about the Xbox platform.

When all games look like trash by next-gen comparison, Halo 3 will stand among the most revered because of its solid gameplay, not some other gimmick or agenda.

mikeslemonade1955d ago

Forge is a gimmick. Theater ain’t necessary. Solid gameplay, yea just solid because COD4 destroyed it. Music is overrated, it has one good theme song.

nowitzki20041955d ago

Halo 3 was the best in the series.

BLizardXD1955d ago

XB1 runs the 1080p 60fps versions. they still have a long ways to go.

mikeslemonade1955d ago

The Xbox 720p plays games in only 720p. Who are you trying to kid?

TeamIcoFan1955d ago

This isn't Halo 3, this is the spin off Halo 3 : ODST, two completely different games...

xX1NORM1Xx1955d ago

Why Microsoft couldn’t have released halo 3 on pc I’ll never know maybe not when the 360 was relevant but surely they could have made a port after Xbox one came out like no one is gonna wait 6 years without buying a 360 on the off chance it comes to pc if they wanted to play it that bad they would have brought a 360. Anyone beyond that is not gonna buy a 360 period so you just leaving money on the table for no reason I get halo Is Microsoft’s biggest franchise and they don’t want to make the game irrelevant to the Xbox brand but as I said above anyone who didn’t buy a 360 for 6 years between halo 3 and Xbox one just isn’t going to buy one but they might buy halo 3 if you put it on pc and with a wait that long big fans will still buy Xbox and everyone wins you get Xbox sales from fans then later you get pc sales from everyone else...

Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.

Kaii109d ago

Just exclude Infinite>5>4

ChasterMies109d ago

Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.

The 7 Best Xbox 360 Games - Console Exclusives Win the Day

The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?

DrDoomer147d ago

I'm pretty used to these lists being bad, but this one is particularly s#ite.

raWfodog146d ago

I think Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon should have been added to the list.

BrainSyphoned147d ago

I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*

Husker42c147d ago

I really loved Shadow Complex.

P_Bomb146d ago

Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.

ChasterMies147d ago (Edited 147d ago )

Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.

Abnor_Mal147d ago (Edited 147d ago )

Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.

The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.

darthv72146d ago

360 had Namco hitters AC6 and RR6... both quality titles. You should at least bust out the 360 for AC6 if you can score the flight stick. Its great.

Hofstaderman146d ago

When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....

Profchaos146d ago (Edited 146d ago )

It's a nostalgia peice same reason we get thousands of YouTube videos on sega genisis. Something people have fond memories for but the era is long gone.

It's xboxs golden year imo it was their genisis years the time where they stuck it to the market leaders Sony.

BehindTheRows146d ago

They stuck nothing. Sony screwed themselves giving Xbox an opening. They would have gotten the usual smack down if the PS3 had launched at $399 and was easier to develop for.

Xbox 360 Turns 18: Three Cheers to Live, Halo, and Red Rings

The Xbox 360 launched in North America 18 years ago, and is now officially old enough to buy you a drink in Europe.

darthv72158d ago

Great platform, and many of its games (not bc) still hold up well to this day. Like the PS3, I keep a 360 hooked up for those games you can't play any other way.

isarai158d ago

The last gasp of greatness from XBox, you are missed, except the RROD that was lame, but amazing exclusives until the Kinect dropped.

TheBrainZ158d ago

So many brilliant games. I still have one stored somewhere.

LG_Fox_Brazil157d ago

I really enjoyed my X360, some great exclusives on it. Used to play the shit out ot Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, two masterpieces
