Could you build this?
No Static recompilation of a closed-source Xbox 360 title requires reverse-engineering PowerPC machine code, re-implementing DirectX/Xenon OS abstractions, and deep systems/graphics programming expertise.
What it would actually take: Requires deep reverse-engineering of Xbox 360 XEX binaries, lifting PowerPC assembly to LLVM IR or C++, implementing custom HLE (High-Level Emulation) runtimes for Xbox 360 system calls and Xenos GPU shaders translated to Vulkan/DirectX 12/Metal, and extensive manual game-specific patching by specialized low-level binary analysis engineers.
