Could you build this?
No Statically recompiling a closed-source game like GTA: Liberty City Stories to native PC architecture requires deep console hardware emulation, disassembly, and engine reverse-engineering expertise.
What it would actually take: This project requires building or adapting a static recompiler to translate compiled PSP/PS2 MIPS machine code directly into recompilable C/C++ ASTs. The developer must reverse-engineer the underlying RenderWare engine structures, audio drivers, and memory allocators while mapping hardware registers to modern graphics APIs (Vulkan/DirectX). This requires elite retro console hardware reverse engineering and low-level game engine expertise.

Same idea, different domain
Nobody's really built a dev tools tool for Sales yet.
