So Phill Spencer has said he would like to bring Original Xbox games to PC in the future.

My problem is that there are two games (XIII & Galleon) that I doubt will ever come to PC.

Ubisoft no longer has the license to the XIII franchise and the game was removed fro GOG years ago.
Galleon was a flop and is not appreciated by anyone I have ever met. Microsoft will never put the effort into getting this game to run through emulation for the Xbox One or PC.

With that said, I have heard that it’s possible to have your PC run your Xbox Original discs. Is this true?

If you have the disc for it, you could try it out. I found Cxbx as an emulator that did the job (according to a YouTube video). Although maybe something different may work for you better.

This is all I know. You could buy a straightforward Pc version of the game if that is available at all and you can’t just throw an Xbox one disc into a pc as it won’t work, probably meaning that all Xbox discs won’t go in either Only the Xbox one games (and possibly a few 360 games) can be played digitally on Pc via the Xbox app/purchased via Microsoft store app. Judging from what I know, probably not.

The PC version of XIII no longer install on Windows 10 and Galleon was an Xbox exclusive.

I heard that you could install an Xbox emulator to PC that would trick the xbox game discs into thinking they were playing inside a console's disc drive and not a PC's.
