Well, in answer to {Ron!n}'s original question: difficulty of coding doesn't have anything to do with gameplay length or content.
The coding that is done in a game is for models (the people and objects on the screen) and the engine (which controls movement and animation).
Once the engine is complete, the programmers then write a "script" which indicates the story line. If you've used the Warcraft or Crysis map editors - it's very similar to those. The engine and script are 100% separate, a 1-hour game takes the same amount of code as a 100-hour game, provided you're using the same engine.

^ maybe
but i dont think so yet
the PS3 would be a something to emulate with its 9 cell processors
and the 360 wouldnt be as hard, the biggest problem would be making your machine better then the 360 thats all
it should trash your computer if its faster and more powerful then the system you want to emulate ^_^

Well i have several Emulators/ROMS. 4 Full systems at least. I can get more as well. Just don thave the room for them all. Overall all the systems i can get have over 150GB worth of stuff for them. No small task.
But on a side note i installed XP fresh and did a massive game install. then went and isntalled Vista SP1 so that i could run Vista and leave XP for gaming.
I installed:
FEAR
Star Wars KOTOR (Knights of the Old Republic)
CS:S
Ut2004
Halo 2
Doom 3 & Expansion
Enter The Matrix
That is about all i can fit. Since i have re-arranged my ssytem again. Using my 160GB drive for system drive and my 2x320GB drives for storage and data.
So i have XP on a 60GB partition, Vista on a 80GB partition and Ubuntu is ready for the 20GB Parition.
