Xenia is an experimental Xbox 360 emulator, and the very first to achieve the feat of running a commercial Xbox 360 game, Frogger 2. It is very heavily in development, to the point where no binaries have been released yet (although you can compile the source code if you wish). It's also incompatible with Windows OSes before 8.

The emulator is very heavily in its proof-of-concept stages. Don't expect something that the average end-user will find use in for a long time.
