I assume since you mentioned GoW3, you mean a 360. You'd need an emulator, and as far as I know there isn't a 360 emulator.

You'll find a dozen people on YouTube saying they have videos of working emulators, but they'll all be something else, or just malware.

Windows 8 will come with 360 game support, i.e. you can play 360 games on a Windows 8 PC.

Just a rumour. Best emulators on high end machines are barely able to emulate ps1 and gamecube games.

If that's true then it's the only good news I've heard about Windows 8. Finally i can trow out my 360.

I never forget a face, but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception.

Don't look now but there's one man too many in this room and i think it's you.

There's only been rumours and speculation on that. I call shenanigans until MS confirm it (of which they haven't as far as I know).

Its been floating around developers for a while now that MS is going to do it, and the reason they are telling developers so they can work around a system that allows a game to play flawlessly on both a 360 and Windows 8 machine, so no little bugs etc coming up like you do on emulators.

Its not concrete I agree, but to let developers know so early is to make them work on upcoming games to work easily on both, increasing income for MS who will be publishing for a fair bit of the developers, except for brand names.

I too doubt that will happen. If they make it so Win8 can play X360 games, then what's the point of having and selling X360.
