MGS (PSX) on XBox

[Parha_ha]

OK this thread reeks of noobnesslikeness but meh I dont care

How would I go about making an ISO of MGS, I have the game but my PSX has shit itself and being the noob I am I dont know how to make a PSX Iso. Or better yet, is there a way I can play it on my modded XBox just by chucking in the CD? Any help is appreciated

I use Alcohal 120% to rip all my games. Haven't had a single error with it.

EDIT: I don't think there's a way to play it on your X-Box, but I could be wrong.

I heard 64 and PSX emulation on the xbox wasn't good at all.

MGS does not run well on Xbox, in fact, i couldnt get any of my ISOs to run on it. First off, the emulator is illegal to have since its built with the XDK (Xbox Dev Kit). Also, in order to even have a chance to play it, you need to make it into an ISO, as you cant run from CD. E101gamma: PSX and N64 emulation is great for certain games, crappy for others. Taking examples, Paper Mario and Xenogears both run great. PM me for more info, but im limited on what i can say, Ill take screenshots if need be though

From what ive heared you make a network wit your comp and then set up a FTP and transfer it over to the Xbox HDD i might be wrong thou

The emulators legality isn't at question here. I don't think anyone's worried about wether or not you discuss all this, unless something's changed since last I was here. I may be wrong, and I'm sure a mod will tell me. But I'm willing to bet it'd be alright...

XBox emulators are TOTALLY different the PC emulators. They are built with the XBOX DEV KIT! Thus, the compiled version of the emulator is illegal. PC emulators, however, are totally legal as long as they dont contain any code not belonging to them (as with the Xbox Emulator for PC, which has some part of the MS code, making it illegal to distribute) Xbox emulation is a specialty of mine, dont try and hold me back when i know what im saying And you dont HAVE to network with your Xbox to play emus, although thats easiest. You can make a CD-RW or DVD (depends on your DVD drive in the xbox) of the emulators, with modified .ini files and the isos on the disk. Doesnt work for big disks obviously, unless you choose DVD. And if you want to see screenshots of some Xbox emulator, tell me.

Please consider where you're posting this, and then consider wether or not anyone here is going to give a shit wether or not you talk about all that. Don't be so paranoid.

As for wether or not you know what you're saying, flaunting your knowledge doesn't impress me. It's nothing I don't already know myself.

My point was that you're not going to get in trouble for discussing this stuff here. At least to the best of my knowlege. Again, a mod will correct me if I'm out of line, but I'm pretty sure you're aloud to discuss emulators using XDK. And unless a mod tells us differently, you can drop the pretenses, you dig?

[Borman]

My point being, you wont just find the emulators on any site, because of their legalities. So, unless you can get you hands on one (you gotta know where to look ), its not even worth discussing playing MGS on Xbox.

For makin an ISO of any PSX game you don't need to pay for something like Alcohol, it does not do anything special for PSX games, any ISO creating software will do including ISObuster

Yeah PSX emulation is not great on X-Box

PSX on PC is rather good and it is for that game though MGS is one of the games that Dual Shock does not work on when ran through emulation

[Cyberxion]

Your whole point was, at least as I saw it, that you couldn't go into specifics because the emulators used XDK, and even suggested that people PM you for further info. Hell, you even went out of your way to point out to me the illegal nature of XDK, whereupon I suggested that you relax and post whatever it is you have to say on the matter.

Now, you don't have to have the XDK to run these emulators, as I've a co-worker that runs several emulators on his XBox, and he doesn't have it. The emulators were WRITTEN using XDK, and don't require it to run.

Eh, whatever. If you're adamant that you can't or won't offer help, then don't. Again, I was just trying to assure you that you wouldn't get in trouble for discussing the emulators simply because they were written using XDK. I've done that, and now I'm done with this convo.

EDIT: I will point out that at no time did you mention that you won't find the emulators on any site due to the fact that they were put together with XDK.
If your point was that they can't be found on anything other then warez sites, then that's another matter. However, you were rather vague on the issue.

[Zorlon]

Basicly if it's emu related it's fine

Welcome back Cyberxion

Heh, thanks Zorlon.

Sorry if I overstepped my boundries. I guess I just fell back into old habits. I'll try and curb that. Gotta remember that I'm no longer on the staff.
