Yeah, that was my thought as well. They aren't "pushing the original Xbox to the limit", they are pushing custom hardware to the limit. The title is super misle

- mrguyorama 3y agoEven worse, it's a commodity desktop CPU! They aren't running "Halo 2" on an "Xbox" in HD, they are running a heavily modified build of Halo 2 on a somewhat custom PC. We had that already, it's called "Halo 2 for Windows Vista!", and now we have MCC. Granted, Halo 2 on Vista had way higher hardware requirements to run at 30fps in 720p I think, though most of that was just Vista overhead. Actually it's worse again, they modified the Xbox kernel too! This is really impressive work but it's also way more niche than the title wants you to believe.
- shocks 3y agoAs per the article, the modded CPU isn’t required.
- iforgotpassword 3y agoErr what? The original CPU is a commodity desktop one as well, I don't see how the CPU swap makes this more of a PC.
