    It’s crazy that you can now play 360 games which used a Power PC CPU but still can’t play most original Xbox games which was a regular X86 PC and Nvidia GPU.

      Xbox emulation is mostly bad because there wasn’t much need for it. Many Xbox games got either a ps2 or pc port. For the few exceptions, Xboxes are very hackable and were pretty cheap for a long time after the 360 released.

        There are over a hundred Xbox games that never got a port. Virtual Boy had only 22 games and got an emulator. There are obscure arcade games, that by their nature are a single game, and have been emulated.

        Being hackable is why I would have expected ports to be easier.

      I have definitely been using my own legal copies of games to play on PC with PCSX2.

      Definitely, totally, ripped the BIOS from my own PS2, as well.

      Completely legal here.

    potentially my wait to replay Army of 2 40th Day is coming to an end

    (The lighting doesn’t work on emulator)
