Running PC games on Droid

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone knew any apps (currently released or being developed) that would let you play old PC games on our phones, particularly the Moto Droid 2.0 XD I was looking specifically for games like Fallout 1 & 2, or even games like Syndicate or Crusader: No Remorse. For people who've never heard of those games, they're 3rd person point and click games, would work great on a touch screen!
 
Wont be possible unless someone comes up with a virtual machine for this. Those games are for either x86 or x86_64 architecture, android runs on the ARM architecture.
 
Well, I found out that there's a dosbox community that's trying to work it onto the androids, they creatively call is aDOSBox :), but it seems to be stable on my moto droid even tho its still in alpha. I was actually, after probably 4-5 hours, finally able to work fallout on my phone!, well, ok, so I actually only got the install screen to load and choose install and it froze, but, hey, progress is progress!
 
Hope they finish the emulator in time for the Droid X release , I cant wait to use the HDMI output on that baby to play Crysis on my 50" HD TV :)

hahahahahaha and then your phone melts after 2 minutes of trying to push the graphics of Crysis hahahahahaha.

I could see this being cool for like starcraft, or C&C, or any of those less memory and graphic heavy games.
