Gens ported over to the X-Box

[chubbito]

Just read that Gens was ported over to the X Box, but couldnt find any details on it. Anyone have an X Box to try this on and let us know how the Sega CD emulation is, or if it works at all for that matter?

Got any links about it?

[edit] did the Google thing; people are talking about it, but I couldn't find any download links.

I heard that it was going to be ported over. I didn't think it had been done yet...

 

[chubbito]

I had read it over at www.zophar.net , it was on the front page, but said they couldnt post it for download since it was made with the official Microsoft XDK, but I don't know what that means, I'm not up to speed on my XBox lingo. I'd assume some kind of developers studio for XBox.

They link to this website http://www.geocities.co.jp/SiliconValley-SanJose/4851/

it's all in japanese though..

Sweet, this was 90% of the reason I got my XBox.....just to mod the case and HD and everything to look cool, then play a bunch of oldschool games on my TV w/ filters and progressive scan output Ü........keep us updated if u can get anymore info on this....

it's done, and working well.

segacd only works off iso/mp3 at this time, and has some resolution prob (pic is shifted to the right).

32x needs autoframeskip on some games.

genesis emulation is damn near perfect.

overall, for a second version, it's pretty damn impressive.

downloads, as for ALL xbox related downloads, #xbins on efnet.

if you don't know what that means, go eat a book about irc.

kinda makes me wish I had an Xbox...

 

[SuperKing]

I need an Xbox, maybe i can convince my friend to mod his so I can mooch and load his harddrive up with sega cd isos

 

[IceDigger]

Sounds cool. Maybe sometime when I get a mod board for my xbox I'll try it out.

 

[racketboy]

no mod board needed -- at least maybe in the near future

EA’s Bond delivers $100,000 penguin to Xbox hacker 1st Apr 2003

Sounds like a great discovery, but had it been posted anywhere before the 1st?

[update] no, it seems that it was first reported on the 29th.

Ya, my SCD runs em perfectly too, BUT it does take up a lot of room......and plus GENS plays 32X, which I dont have....and 1500+ genny games that I dont have either......Ü

I know, I was just highlighting the fact that it was posted on that site on April Fools Day. Didn't you notice?

 

[Arakon]

it's valid and works 100%. no april fool's day joke.

btw, gens was also ported by xport now, without sound problems. and considering he got real cd support working in hu-go now, I'm sure gens-xport will also support actual cds instead of isos very soon.
