RexGlue Xbox 360 recomps; a new way to recomp 360 games...kind of

Since I got a ton of questions and the dust has settled in the last 48 hours and the GitHub has been parsed through...let's talk about what RexGlue really is

XeniaRecomp tool? No. That is recompiling the entirety of the 360 game (Sonic Unleased) into a new PC executable with enhancements, a new renderer, etc etc

RexGlue is using Xenia Canary for all that...while static recompilation of the PowerPC code to C++ happens at run time

Thanks for all the teams for recomp and others
 
Hopefully someone recomps the X360 version of Deadly Premonition so we can finally have an actual working, and superior, version of the game other than the piece of shit "Director's Cut".
 


Sonic Unleashed Recompilation proved that Xbox 360 games could get Xbox 360 recomps...but that's about all we have seen from the XenonRecomp tool (or Xenon Recomp tool if you like spaces)....so now RexGlue, a static recompiler for Xbox 360 PowerPC code is here...as are two alphas of Xbox 360 recomps...a Blue Dragon recomp and a Dragon Ball Raging Blast 2 recomp...but first we need to explain what RexGlue does...and doesn't do! But this is why retro gaming is making a comeback...and now we have the first signs of life of a Ninja Gaiden II recomp!
