[Asking How]Playing Play Station/Xbox Games on PC...Without the Consoles

Recently I heard that you can download Play Station and Xbox platform software and drivers I guess and with a blu-ray drive play Play Station and Xbox exclusive games on your PC with a connected controller.

 

Does anyone know of a detailed tutorial on how to do this because I would defiantly do it to play the exclusive titles like Dead Rising 3 and GTA V on my PC without buying the actual consoles.

The year is 20XX. Everyone plays Fox at TAS levels of perfection. Because of this, the winner of a match depends solely on port priority. The RPS metagame has evolved to ridiculous levels due to it being the only remaining factor to decide matches.

Only Abate, Axe, and Wobbles can save us.

There aren't any emultator for the PS3 nor the Xbox 360, so Dead Rising 3 and GTA V is out of the question. You can download a PS2 emulator and I think there is an emulator for the original Xbox. 

 

Edit: Here you have a guide for setting up the PS2 emulator: http://pcsx2.net/config-guide/official-english-pcsx2-configuration-guide.html

I origanaly heard this from my cousin and he said that you get the, I guess the OS for the console and then run that on your PC? I don't know but it sounded like it was possible as long as you can get a copy of a PS or Xbox hard drive.

The problem is emulating the Xbox 360 and PS3 hardware on a PC. Both of these consoles run on a different platform then consumer PCs does. The harddrives from the consoles doesn't matter in this, since it's the basic computing platform that is different.

wouldn't work since both are based on the Power PC archetecture vs X86. Think using older mac OS X on a PC, pretty much impossible.
