| 157089 | 2003-07-03 01:17:00 | I was wondering the other day, pondering some things I had read about people installing Linux on their XBox. How feasible would it be to install on an Xbox running Linux or some other OS, a PS2 emulator, to run PS2 games on the Xbox? I imagine there are compatibility issues, however, like finding a PS2 emulator for the OS, and so on. Anyone got anything to say on this? | Lizard (2409) | ||
| 157090 | 2003-07-03 01:28:00 | You can also run Win98 on an X-Box... A few things come to mind here... Emulators are mainly for Win32 OS's, Win98 included. Now, a few things come to mind here: Linux, would run fine, but if you dont have a Linux emulator, you'd then want to have WineX, as I have run a Gameboy Emulator under it (No$GMB) and that worked, so I was running RedHat 9, emulating Doze, Emulating a gameboy. Next, you'd need your X-Box Modded And lastly is the legality of the the ROM's/Emulators, which I wont delve into, but will say that there will likely be a performance hit when emulating apps on the X-Box. Hope this helps *Zips up flame suit, just in case* |

| 157093 | 2003-07-03 01:38:00 | Err.. But havent they already done that? (Released how to install Linux on the X-Box without modding it) Its got to do with the 007 Game and how it saves... There's a hole in it somewhere from what I remember reading!?! |

| 157094 | 2003-07-03 04:35:00 | I thought the PS2 emulator was a myth. The special parts a PS2 uses are too hard or damn near impossible to emulate. But if anyone knows of one, I'm keen. |
