I really think it is emulation as I said before. There isn't another possibility technically. And again - we have to forget what we know about emulation from other systems. These emulators are made by hobbyists who do a great work but of course can't provide the same performance as professionals who have all the documentation. Example? Sega was able to emulate Sega Rally Model 2 with a PS2. The system was more powerful than Model 2 but it was amazing what they achieved on PS2 with it. Or Rosetta which Apple used when they switched to x86 and left ppc behind. Edit: btw, Rosetta is made by the same company as the company mentioned by the neogaffer I linked. Edit 2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_%28software%29 Well, given by this it's not exactly "emulation" as we know it but you can still call it though, I guess. |
Even if they made by hobbiest it's still under the same principle, i will just wait for other expert to explain this and how the damn thing work , and for Roseta it's another different mater both are more simpler then games with a lot of code, and also we are discusing Xbox One spec and not just PC, and even until now no one able to play smoothly Xbox 360 games on high end PC, i cannot imagine how this things will work on Xbox One spec. But that's already prove on how limited the games that will work on this backward compatibility.
