Other issues include that fact that you can't rotate games ect.... basically 50% of mame's options are no longer configurable.  Not that this is a bad thing.... you just need to be aware.  

Of course now the xbox is a mere 140 bucks, so There isn't any harm in playing around.

It has been fixed  some time ago they managed to program a virtual memory system in MAME so even the 80MB roms loads up...

Allright so whats the new one called ?
Any related link?
(Send a PM if its illegal or anything)

 ;D

(somebody wanna move the thread to console section)

Would it be worth modding your x-box and placing a larger hard drive in there to run MAME and other emulators, or is the PC still the way to go?  (from the prosepctive that the load times of newer MAME games are bearible on the x-box)

What would the quality look like of just a normal X-Box game like halo on an Arcade Monitor?

Modding isnt hard,you can buy non solder chips(Although I did solder cuz I wanted a differnt chip).Yeah I think its worth modding,you really dont need a larger drive though.8gb is enough for mame.I mean how many games will you REALLY be playing anyway...

Not sure on the arcade monitor part but  I use this vga box and a vga monitor,couldn't be any happier.

I only play very few games anyway(just fighters) so I think I will install mameox tomorrow,load a game or 2 and post result  :)
