Could you build this?

No Running a 2013 Xbox 360 open-world game natively on other devices requires decompiling console binaries, reimplementing the game engine, and converting proprietary assets. This needs deep low-level reverse-engineering expertise and carries serious copyright exposure.

What it would actually take: Would require extracting and parsing Xbox 360 disc and PowerPC binaries, reverse-engineering the proprietary engine and asset formats, and rewriting the runtime for ARM with GPU shader translation. Building it takes a team of experienced reverse engineers and graphics programmers, and the work is legally fraught.
