===Comparisons===
*Cxbx can boot around 61 games, with around a dozen in a playable state ([http://shogun3d-cxbx.blogspot.com/2009/11/cxbx-compatibility-list-updated.html List])
*Xeon can emulate Halo well, but nothing elseCE to the point where the first stage is semi-playable.The walls and ground are pitch black and the game crashes after you complete first stage (or right after you select the difficulty on modern versions of Windows.)
Consoles
Due to a lack of interest, or in some case very toxic behavior or potential legal threats towards devs, the Xbox emulation scene is almost dormant at the moment.
Compounded to this is the high level entry for the effort involved: emulating a complex (and partially undocumented) x86 CPU from scratch, undocumented NVIDIA graphical and sound components (the Nouveau project for Linux may be of help, but the GeForce architecture is notoriously complicated), and obscure BIOS for each hardware revision posing problems with many things, including video rendering. ([https://web.archive.org/web/20130517194502/http://www.ngemu.com/forumsthreads/showthreadwhy-is-xbox-emulation-premature.php?t=132032 / More]) There's progress nevertheless, but it's very slow.
