Actually, as I understand it the Xbox version of Shenmue II has a pretty
high-level game engine that's cross-compatible with the data files from
the Dreamcast version. At least one hacker extracted the Japanese voice
tracks from the Dreamcast discs and inserted them into the American Xbox
game. If you're interested just in viewing Xbox disc data, the file format
is known as XISO and there are some Windows and Linux viewers for it.
Too tired to get into a deep deiscussion of the morality of console
modification, so I'll leave it alone for now.
-KKC, cutting up his EB discount card and mailing it to Pennsylvania, just
to make the point clearly.
