How to Put Emulators on a Softmodded XBox

A softmodded Xbox can run many homebrew applications including emulators that play older classic console games. Putting emulators on your Xbox allows you to choose from the list of emulators you would like to play from your Xbox hard drive and play the emulator game directly from your Xbox. You can transfer emulators to your Xbox by using an FTP program.
