Could you build this?
No A native Windows port of a PS2 game requires reverse engineering the original MIPS binary and recompiling it, which needs deep low-level emulation and decompilation expertise.
What it would actually take: The approach is static or dynamic recompilation: disassembling the PS2 executable, lifting MIPS and EE-specific instructions to C or C++, and reimplementing the GS graphics and SPU audio and the PS2 kernel calls. This takes reverse engineering skills, knowledge of console hardware, and months of debugging against the original disc.
