IN THEORY:

You could find a linux distro which supports 3D games, then install WINE or another windows emulator, then install Halo. Then, as the Xbox processor is probably not powerful enough to run it you would need to find a way of clustering 2 or more Xbox's together so that they can share their processing power.

THE PROBLEMS:

-Even after doing this the framerate would probably be too low to use
-I'm not sure WINE could install it
-You would need a VGA box be able to use a higher resolution
-You would need a lot of linux experience to do it
