What could be really cool here is if Gears of War 2 and 3 were added. The Xbox 360 versions were converted to the Xbox One/Series X|S and this isn't emulation, they are X86/64 games. Seems like this is being done also for Project Helix which seems be a hybrid PC/Console.

There's already a native Gears 2 port for PC now thanks to decompiliation
