Default Playing ps2 games on xbox

Hi,

My sis got an xbox for her birthday but she wants to play ps2 games. I know its possible if you install a modchip and load an emulator, but I've only heard about it in theory. Can somebody please tell me which modchip I should get that will allow me to do this, and will also be easy to setup... and if I will have to get any extra accessories?

Thanks,

Denys

Trade the Xbox for a ps2 at a Gamestop...

Her birthday, her Xbox. Shouldn't have bought yourself games for your sisters gift.

Trade it in. Chipping like that is, I believe, atleast on the grey line of legal (when it comes to cross gaming and such).

im quite sure that crossplatform gaming would be a dark and defined line in terms of the legality, hehe, ill leave you to guess which side of the line it is =P
