X-Box/PS2 Emulation
« on: May 10, 2007, 07:08:08 pm »
Hey guys,

is it possible to emulate xbox and ps2 games??, and if so is it as much of a pain as it is to do Dreamcast games?

Emulating Xbox games is a big pain.  You need a fast pc to do it.  It will only play one game too, Halo.  It;s not really worth it at all.  Same thing pretty much goes for the PS2 too.  I'm not sure even if you can play any commercial PS2 games yet.

I use PCSX2 as ps2 emulator and it runs the games right off the disk. it can run dvd games fine but cant read the blue ones. you need an ISO if you want to run the blue disk games

Well the Xbox uses the same processor family as a PC, and its OS is apparently a stripped down, slightly modified, version of Windows 2000. So theoretically it should be possible to run games just by emulating the API.
