FYI
Xbox games are not actually coming. I don't know why anyone would take that idea seriously to any degree, but apparently some people have. Just wanted to quell that this was a joke I started.
I really like starting jokes, or making jokes, and I saw the website being down as a great opportunity to start a seriously ridiculous rumor. As cool as it might be to see actual original Xbox games on this service, I do believe that Microsoft would really take issue with that idea, and I think they would come out on GFWL instead of GOG.
I know that many of you may be disappointed or find it frustrating that I would start a rumor, and think it kind of malicious, but you have to understand that I really love making jokes.
tl;dr
Xbox games like Halo and Halo 2 are definitely coming to GOG.
Official Statement from GOG
