Maybe as part of a limited adition box set they could include a free copy of the arena remade for xbl? It could be like a card giving u a free d/l. Also before anyone says i've tried installing the free copy from the elder scrolls website but for some reason the emulator dosent work.

Yes, the emulator does work.

Your just "doin it wrong"

When I followed the guide it told me to open a file that didnt exist. I did nothing wrong. Besides i find controller play easier anyway so having the arena on my 360 would be better for me.

Well, it works for me.

I couldn't figure out the emulator either. But it would be really cool if they put Arena on the XBLA, . I enjoyed Phantasy Star 2 on XBLA and was kinda hoping more older games would come for the arcade. Arena would be a great addition.
Edit: Congratulations on the 4 Tal.

Ah well, maybe my computers messed up. But while im on the subject, maybe they should offer daggerfall as well. Seeing as Bethesda is giving that away too.

Time to Bring on the Payne!

Use DOSBox emulator and run the batch file and you won't have any problems.

Well, it did take me a good 30 minutes to get it running. If you skip anything in the instructions you are screwed. I learned that the hard way.

And thanks I guess? I honestly never thought I ever get past two, with all my hatred for Oblivion LOL.

From Wikipedia:
"An emulator duplicates (provides an emulation of) the functions of one system using a different system, so that the second system behaves like (and appears to be) the first system. "

Wastelander was claiming that Dosbox (the emulator that is used to run The Elder Scrolls 1: Arena) doesn't work. As I use Dosbox regularly to play Daggerfall I knew he was wrong and corrected him.

I would still rather see it on XBL. No hassle, no fuss.

Actually i was saying i couldnt get it to work, But whatever. Anyways the sum of it all is i think they should bundle the arena and daggerfall with tesv for free seeing as they r giving it away on their website.

Time to Bring on the Payne!

That would be great, seeing as how I also can't get Dosbox to work either. Tells me to use a file that doesn't exist, I create it, it still doesn't work. Arena and Daggerfall are pretty small files compared to Oblivion, so it could work, I think. I'm no expert when it comes to computers, as is probably evident in the fact that I can't get Dosbox, the supposed easiest emulator to use, to work. But I did try to watch the video that explains how to use it, but my computer sucketh greatly, so videos don't work. A text document would help. Or, as is said above, adding Arena and Daggerfall to TES5.

Arena should be included in a limited/special edition of TES 5. Kind of like how Call of Duty 1 will be included in the MW2 package.
