Could you build this?

No Porting an Xbox game to native Windows with HD textures, a higher frame rate, and extended draw distance requires reverse engineering the original binary and engine internals. Vibe coding cannot substitute for that low-level expertise.

What it would actually take: Requires disassembly and reverse engineering of the Xbox executable, probably with Ghidra or IDA, to understand the engine's timing, physics, and rendering assumptions. A working port then needs a Windows-side runtime or wrapper, a rendering path that replaces the original pipeline, and asset-level texture replacement. This takes specialized low-level and console-reverse-engineering experience, plus legal care around distributing derivative work.
