    Original Xbox Emulator for Windows, macOS, and Linux (Active Development)

  • I was fucking around with xemu, playing JSRF as any civilized person would, and i remembered Burnout 3 and Revenge are listed as playable on xemu's website. So i tried it out and yeah, at least Burnout 3 works fine, no crashes, barely any graphical glitches, just some occasional one second freezes. The thing that may annoy some people is the fact that the world tour event selection menu runs at like 10fps for some reason, but it's no big deal, you can select stuff just fine, and as soon as you get to the car selection screen, it goes back up to 60.

    Xbox ISO Creation/Extraction utility. Imported from SourceForge.

  • P.S: xemu is a mess to set up. you're probably gonna need something like extract-xiso to make the game playable (for example, in case you're using a redump iso, which is like 7GB), unless you're dumping your own copy of the game using your real Xbox.
