He has X_cast as a half DONE project as well! Impressive, though I have not really heard much about this site. I hope it's credible!

The X-Cast developer is SNICK, The developer claiming to work on the project called epsxeX is EmrobRollo, two completely different people.  It is not the site claiming the projects anyone can create an account and post that they are working on a project.

Project Description:
   The best PSX emulator for PC is coming to XBOX!!! Will use edited versions of the variety of plugins by \\\\\\\'Pete\\\\\\\'


i think that line right there says fake. pete specifically said on his site that he won't open source his plugins, and i belive he specifically said xbox dev with the XDK is one of his reasons.also the emu he is trying to port is closed source, so more then likely, he is either BS'ing everyone, or is a complete n00b and doesn't know something has to be open source to port it (in which case he probably wouldn't be skilled enough to port it even if he could obtain the source) just my 2 cents wink.gif

why dont you think it is real?

WQhat is so impossible?

Because the source code is closed....... without source code, it would be impossible to port.

The only way around this is to persuade the dev's to release the source to one trustworthy person only.

However the dev of the plugins (which are the main stumbling block when it comes to emulating playstation on XBOX) said they will not due to the legality of it.

PS: Dont pester the devs for source, they have already said no)

That being said, i really hope it's real, i'd love to see it.

not impossible... just very hard to port

it is possible with reverse engineering, but illegal

Yes but i didn't want to go that route.

Im no expert but from what i hear, it would be so hard that you may as well just not bother.
