Dolphin is pretty fantastic, yes.

I really, really want someone out there to make a good Xbox emulator. I've read on emulation forums that the reason no one has done one yet is because of lack of interest, i.e., "all the good games already got PC ports," but I have a bunch of exclusive games by companies like Sega and From Software, among others, that say otherwise.

The XBOX have no documentation (of some specific components), so nobody knows how that thing works and can't emulate it properly.

This project seems to be the closest to it so far.

Elmofongo: Appearently you can just talk about emulators all willy nilly in these public forums that would frown upon the "promotion" of such material :P
Sorry, what? Emulation != piracy. Lots of GOG titles use emulation of one kind or another.

koima57: I have the RE4 game for my Wii and the PC HD version. Some months ago I purchased a wonderful bluetooth by USB "Dolphinbar" peripheral to use my official Wiimote with this emulator; I want to play it with the Wiimote, is the reason i have been waiting Dolphin fixes. Before the black squares bug of this game at every kick and dust effects got me waiting for a new stable release for my sitting, I really liked the first minutes to the village introduction playing with the Wiimote, moving, aiming... It is an experience no m & k, or gamepad can offer! Though It runs at 30 fps instead of 60 and the PC HD has better textures but i chose this setup for my long planned, first RE4 time. =)
Err, okay. I've completed the game originally on Gamecube, then Wii, then on PC. While the fairly accurate aiming part on the Wii version was nice - it also made the game super easy - all that Wiimote waggling was just irritating. Never again. I would definitely put the PC mouse & keyboard controls as the best overall.

Elisebathe: How can you play RE4 on an emulator knowing that the game is available for all the other consoles?
I could understand if it was not and you did not have a choice where to play it, but it is not, so why play it on a emulator where you definitely will have some troubles running than play it on your PC for example beats me, and do not tell me you do not have the game because even if you did not, it is really cheap to get it.

I see. Thanks for the answer and good luck with your playthrough.

It works even better on Direct X 10 though.

I only use emulators on games I actually own... My GameCube library was pretty light, but not barren. I'll try the new dolphin later today.

Emulators preserve games. If you're the kind of person who still likes to play on old consoles then they can be good for not wearing them out even more.
