Hi all,

I'm currently tossing up between going the full HTPC option or a smaller Android box running XBMC.

One of the things I am very keen on is the ability to have a video games emulator, and play the games using a controller (probably XBox 360 one).
Now I have read this can be done with a full blown HTPC, as you setup drivers and what not for the controller.

Can this be done with an Android XBMC setup? And if so does any one have any instructions?

Thanks heaps

It should be very possible with Android, but all of that is so early in development that you'll be waiting a while before you can really use it, let alone find out how well it works (along with the rest of XBMC). It's too early to give any advice regarding what someone should and should not purchase when it comes to android hardware (and comparing it to other options).

My gut tells me that if you really want a multipurpose device then you should get something with a desktop CPU.

Cheers mate! Will look at the Desktop option
