Asteroids & Asteroids Deluxe XBLA game (still only playable via the Xbox 360) gameplay using the xenia Microsoft Xbox 360 emulator (version canary / 2b49fc2dd / 11/26/2024) for Windows.

I plan on testing out games that are still only available on the Xbox 360 via the xenia emulator on my Windows PC. With my specs (see below), games I have tested so far run well at 2x resolution (3x resolution, i.e. 4K, maxes out my GPU to 100% usage and causes slowdowns).

MY PC SPECS:

AMD Ryzen 7 5700G CPU (24,689 multithread / 3,286 single thread PassMark score)
NVIDIA RTX 3060 12GB GPU
32GB DDR4 3600MHz (PC4-28800) CL18 Desktop Memory
2TB Samsung 980 Pro SSD
Windows 10 (I tried Windows 11 shortly after it released and found it to be too buggy for what I mostly do on PC, so I reverted back to Windows 10)

SETTINGS:

There's not much GUI configuration that you can really adjust with this emulator. You can, however, make some adjustments to a config file located under your computer's "Documents\Xenia" folder (if using the "master" builds--if using "canary" builds then it is located in the emulator's install directory). Open the file named "xenia.config.toml" in a text editor, such as Notepad, and you'll see a lot of things you could adjust... although I don't mess with anything besides two options:

license_mask = 1 -- This unlocks XBLA games (no more "demo" only mode!)

draw_resolution_scale_x = 2 -- You can try 1 (native), 2, or 3 here. 3 renders in 4K, but as noted earlier it maxes out my GPU to 100% usage and causes slowdowns.
draw_resolution_scale_y = 2 -- See above.

I am using my Xbox One controller, and everything is mapped/just works out of the box with xenia.
