When i go to demonoid.com, i see that you can download games and whatnot from different platforms (i.e. PSP, Xbox360, etc.). But these games can only be used on your PC/laptop, right? I just thought that it would be meaningless to be able to download a game that isn't made for the PC, but instead a video gaming system and play it on your PC. Like, what is the dillyo cheerio?

For consoles you would download and then burn to a DVD and use that in your modded console (you need a mod chip to play burned games). For the PSP you can just put it on a memory stick and use a special application to play it from the card. The DS I believe you need a special cartridge as well. Not so sure on the DS as I have never bothered with it.
All those games can't be played on the PC though. They are merely downloaded and then moved to whatever you downloaded it for. |

BTW Johnny, some can be played on your computer via emulator. Not 360, but other (older) systems.

You dont need a modchip on the xbox 360, you just need to flash the drive firmware, but unless your xbox is out of warranty, I wouldn't do it.

Pretty easy. Just search google for emulators and you should find all you need. As long as you have a decent computer, you should be able to play everything from NES to N64.
You can find roms of games on any torrent site, or individual rom sites. I use romhustler.net. |

The best site for emulators and roms is www.romhustler.net
A lot of site are bullshit, and a lot of others don't have certain games due to copyrights and whatnot. RomHustler has everything. |

Eventually, you will be able to play XBox and PSP games on the PC via emulator. Emulators are almost always a couple generations behind (Especially since Sony tanked Bleem, and they weren't even breaking the law), but I remember they had a coupel of XBox emulators in the works...

While we're on this topic, does anyone know of a decent Saturn emulator? I'm using Satourne, but I can't seem to get it to work.
