Xbox Emulator...
« Reply #15 on: August 21, 2002, 04:05:00 PM »

I can run Windows XP and Mac OS X at the same time on my Mac G4 PowerPC using Virtual PC.  XP doesn't run fast at all though, but it's still cool to see.  I'm basically running two totally different platforms at the same time.  Why wouldn't it be possible to create "Virtual Xbox"?

The bad thing about Virtual-PC, much like Bochs, is that it emulates an x86 CPU. Even the x86 version emulates an x86 CPU!

Emulating the xbox is not impossible and wont require massive hardware, sure there will be SOME overhead but IMHO a 1.5GHz+ & GF4 would be able to do it. The 2 main problems will be HyperTransport and the REAL TIME DolbyDigital encoding...
