Actually, I think the modchip will allow for this.  IIRC it translates the instructions (same for PS2 modchip, it can translate instructions from GCN and XBox1).

Exactly why I said it's not plausible. Besides, writing the instruction set to change x86 to MIPS wouldn't be cost effective.

Whatever.  I've heard it translates instructions.  I'll have to take your word for it.  I really have no clue what's going on inside them.

actually I'm pretty sure you can play PS2 games on a Xbox360 ... at least I know you can on normal Xbox... I just put in a modchip than dled some rom files and if I put in an extra hard drive POOF I can play any PS2 game out there.... end of story, GG   Tongue(same goes for N64 and SNES and w/e the fuck else there is including gameboy color" Shocked Kiss

This is not plausible because the Xbox uses the x86 instruction set, and PS2 uses the MIPS instruction set. This is why you'll see the implementation of the 360's compatibilty with regular Xbox games to be spotty at best, because the 360 uses PPC cores which don't run x86.

So, in essence, you're full of shit.

uh actually you can come visit Minnesota sometime dude...  tell me a game u want to play from ps2 and ill put it on my xbox for you.

Yea I go into the sea sometimes just to fuck around with the sharks. I have this thing called a shark rocket, and I shoot it at them. And It really annoys them. And then I just wade there in the water, and they come at me but im really good at alluding them I know this hit move its something porpoises do and then I pretend i have a bottle neck and I stab him in the gills and its really effective.

One must ask oneself: "do I will trolling to become a universal law?" And then when one realizes "yes, I do will it to be such," one feels completely justified.
