Xbox Games on Android

The original Xbox doesn't get as much love as it deserves, but there are a few gems here. Halo: Combat Evolved has a fan decompilation, and both Knights of the Old Republic games are official releases on Google Play.

So setup comes in two flavors. The official ports are a simple purchase and install. The fan projects need files from your own Xbox disc, and each game page walks you through that.

Blinx 2 and Need for Speed: Underground are here too, as static recompilations. Both are still in alpha, so expect a few bumps along the way.
