tbh the wonders of the Feral PC Army include several groups writing console emulators. I am successfully running: Wii, Wii U, Switch, OG Xbox and PS3 emulators as we speak. I understand Xbox 360 and PS4 are also out there, but I haven't got 'round to them yet.

Interestingly, a lot of media for these emulators is just kind of laying around on the internet for anybody to download.

360 might be the single most buggy emulator I play. Shit runs on thoughts and prayers

[-] ExcessShiv@lemmy.dbzer0.com 24 points 4 days ago

So it the perfect Xbox 360 emulator?

[-] DdCno1@beehaw.org 1 points 3 days ago

Worse than OG Xbox emulation? Last time I checked, it was rough to say the least, with absurd hardware requirements.

[-] lka1988@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 points 11 hours ago

Which IMO is very odd, considering the OG Xbox is quite literally just an x86 PC and at this point has been cracked wide open.

[-] DdCno1@beehaw.org 1 points 3 hours ago

Common misconception. It's not a PC. Many of the components are close to standard, but their implementation isn't. Lots of proprietary shenanigans going on. It also lacks a typical BIOS, which alone makes it not an x86 PC.

Honestly, yeah it is. OG Xbox emulator has gotten a lot better, but 360 still has the frame drop issues and a LOT of texture fixing problems. So you can spin the camera in just about any game and the textures are flying at you

We do have decomps in the pipes apparently for those exclusives that keep me hopeful. Fable 2 has one halfway running as of I think a few months ago.

It's kinda funny to me because the OG Xbox is what I still use for emulation. Mine has a 2 TB HDD and runs XBMC (what eventually became Kodi). I love that thing and it is still my media server as well. Having to use FTP is a little annoying in the modern day, and it has gotten hard to find disc's to burn to it, but it still runs like a champ.

Wow that's impressive. The thing was built like a brick. I had one back in the day and had several games (all of which I downloaded and am running for the nostalgia hit).

One game I found I never knew existed is Tron 2.0. I can't believe I never even heard of this game, I would have been all about it. The nice thing about the emulator is it has an upscaler and games in HD are absolutely dynamite, especially Tron 2.0.

Also flies as well.

Tron 2.0 is the true sequel to Tron. All others are inferior.

When I was in highschool I was a huge Tron nerd. I actually sanded down my laptops lid and etched TRON in big letters on it, painted it all up in black and blue. Wish I had a picture of it.
