If you compare a console game to a pc game it all begins with the makers. The time spent converting and building for each system will be the largest difference. At the moment more people own pc's than 360's thus it is not illogical to believe more time may be spent on pc games to satisfy the larger audience. I personally prefer console games but cannot deny the power my pc has. A top of the line pc is better in nearly every aspect but at much higher price.

no no no no no, your PC can NOT AT ALL handle an xbox 360 game. I dont care if bill gates built your computer, it would not out perform an xbox 360. if it was so easy why havent all these 1337 nerds done it yet??

i have what was a top of the line pc a while ago with a gig of ram an P4 2.8GHz hyperthreading CPU and i know that my computer can in NO WAY handle a 360 game, so im pretty sure that guys couldnt, even if he was running 2 gigs of dual channel with a 3.2 dual core and a top of the line video card.

Scott.. knock it off with the "clever speak" . It makes you sound like a retard.
My 2c.. If, and it's a big IF pc's keep the same kind of architecture as they have now.. the 360 emulator in the home is still a very long way away. The thing all the "My pc is state of the art" whiners have forgotten, and that us 360 clued up know is.. Take a triple core custom designed for purpose cpu, marry it to a multichannel designed for purpose graphics setup and you have... Something that a general purpose machine, no matter how powerful, is going to struggle to run a software emulation of.
The first step of emulating any bit of hardware is having access to all the internal specs, and the custom instruction sets.
Unfortunately, so far all the work on the 360 has been at facilitating cheapskates who want to download games instead of paying for them.. Not much work in any other direction.. a little HDD hacking, but that's it. As far as I know nobody has even dumped the bootloader code yet. Without those kind of details an emulator is dead in the water.

good disscussion, except Arkadiy is acting like an ass.
The PC core is very different from the 3 360 cores. they are meant to do different things. And to have a set of PC cores equal to what the 360 cores can do as of gaming would be in like 20 years. But on the other hand if the 360 cores are compared to PC computing, not gaming, it would be a celeron. and thats why right now the 3 core CPU of 360 is like $100 when a 2 core PC CPU can be $1000.
oh and so dont worry about an emulator, it wont happen

Actually beyond the tri-core 3.2ghz processor setup alot of pc's have better specs. The 360 is supplied with 700 mhz ddr. I understand the ram is used more strongly because it does not have to divert among the OS and programs, but 4gig of ddr in a pc would be faster. A GeForce 8800 gtx is 768mb and is also more powerful than that of the 360 for video. You could have a 9 core processor pushing 4ghz but if you do not have the ram it will run no better. Anyway, silly argument. I could build a pc with better overall performance, but it would cost $1200.00. Anyway, who cares. I prefer the console controller over the keyboard anyway.

Emulation takes more power than an actual game does. A pc can run the same game as a 360 just as well with same graphics but it will not have the power to emulate it anytime soon. By the time it can, probably in 5 or 6 years, it will be pointless as the xbox360 itself will be $40.00 at yard sales and the Xbox720 will be battling PS4's and the Nintendo Kiddy for console dominance.

You guys who are trying to defend your pc's need to be a little more logical about this. You want to compare your top end pc, which is what, like $3000, to a $400 console. Let's be a little more realistic... why don't you compare a $400 pc to a $400 console?
Or better yet, how about this... you can keep your $3000 pc. And let's pretend that MS's gaming division had the go-ahead to develop a $3000 console. With them being able to spend that much more on the console, do you really think that it'd still be inferior to your pc? I HIGHLY doubt it.

you dont get it. a computer could handle a 360 game that has been ported and it could look better than the 360. but to emulate the game. you usualy need a machine 10 times more powerfull the what you are trying to emulate. everyone needs to forget about a 360 emulator. there isnt even and xbox 1 emulator working on pc right now. and ps2 emulators barely work.

apparently you cant read. no one said a pc cant handle a 360 game. but a 360 isnt built like a computer. at all. no matter what you have in your computer, you cant run a 360 game. i can guarantee you that you cant. if its so easy to do and all you people have such wonderful computers, why havent we had a working 360 emulator yet? how come no one is working on it? people that actually know how emulation works on a console know that you cant emulate something unless your using a machine that is MUCH stronger than what your emulating. if you think you can prove us all wrong, then by all means dump a crap load of money into a computer and see if it can run a 360 game.

GPu in the 360 is roughly equivalent to an ATI x1950xt with a low end duo core 2 PC-wise...which of course doesn't mean much since the RROD kills the 360 for 3-4 weeks while you wait for a return. If your video card on the pc is dead however..turnaround time for an advanced warranty replacement is just a few days with a credit card (same with western digital hard drives). Can't even imagine how behind the times an xbox360 will be in 2009 when direct X 10 games start popping up left and right.
Emulation will require a pc cpu roughly ten times as powerful as the emulated cpu (so say the Mame team).
On the other hand, miracles sometimes happen..just look how fast nullDC is in running dreamcast games on a 2.5ghz cpu. Its all in how good the programmers are at optimizing the code.

a tricked out pc can piss all over the 360 but the reason alot of people rather have the 360 is because if your a pc ga,er you have to upgrade your components and parts every 2 years or so (new graphoc card, more ram, ect.)
Lower your flags and march straight back to England, stopping at every home to beg forgiveness for a hundred years of theft, rape, and murder. Do this and your men shall live. Do it not, and every one of you will die today.
Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!

wrong, again. your pc cant outperform your xbox 360. your xbox 360 is a custom built gaming machine, thats all it does. it doesnt have to go online and view web pages and it doesnt have to do a lot of things a computer does. it simply runs hi res games.
