Xbox 360 emulator Xenia now supports DirectX 12, first Halo 3 DX12 screenshots revealed

DSOGaming writes: "The development team behind Xenia, the best Xbox 360 emulator, has been making some progress and decided to completely ditch the Vulkan API in favour of DirectX 12. As such, and for the time being, Xenia is now exclusive to Windows 10 and the team has shared the first screenshots from Halo 3 being emulated in this latest DX12 version of Xenia."

Halo 3 is still one of my favorites in the series

babadivad2410d ago

It's campaign is by far the best of the series. Especially playing co-op.

starchild2410d ago

I'm rooting for this emulator to get to a polished state. I would enjoy playing Tenchu Z and some other 360 games on my PC.

Cobra9512409d ago

Ditch Vulkan, and lock the emulator to Windows 10? Oh, that's going to engender some serious hate. It may be necessary for better performance and accuracy, though, given that it was a MS environment to begin with. I have not followed this project at all. Just speculating here.

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

Kaii471d ago

Just exclude Infinite>5>4

ChasterMies471d 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?

DrDoomer508d ago

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

raWfodog508d ago

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

BrainSyphoned508d 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*

Husker42c508d ago

I really loved Shadow Complex.

P_Bomb508d ago

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

ChasterMies508d ago (Edited 508d 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_Mal508d ago (Edited 508d 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.

darthv72508d 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.

Hofstaderman508d ago

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

Profchaos507d ago (Edited 507d 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.

BehindTheRows507d 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.
