Could you build this?

No The project recompiles an Xbox 360 game binary into a native PC build. That requires deep reverse engineering of PowerPC code, a custom runtime, and graphics translation, which vibe coding can't supply.

What it would actually take: The build depends on static recompilation of PowerPC Xbox 360 code into x86-64 and a runtime that reimplements Xenon system calls, the GPU command stream, and audio. It needs expertise in compilers, binary analysis, and graphics APIs such as D3D12 or Vulkan, plus ownership of a legitimate copy of the game. Work of this kind typically takes a team months to years.
