All I heard were bad things. Today while boar while my internet was down I popped it in my 360 and could not have been happier seeing it on 360 for the first time. Mainly because the fucking bloom bullshit is gone!

It was never as bad as people made out. It's virtually Shenmue III!!

I still prefer the look of S2 in VGA Mode over 480p in S2x, which is odd as technically it appears to be the exact same resolution. I also think the Japanese soundtrack (with english subtitles) makes for a better experience than the dub. Never the less, I'm glad to hear the emulation isn't a total disaster and as a result I might check it out again some time. 
M$'s emulation is pretty hit and miss. I could hardly stand it playing KOTOR again, the bugs only seemed amplified on the 360.

Ahem, look at my favourite title
But the only issue i had back when it was all relatively new, i wasnt happy with the aspect ratio, and before a 360 update, if you had a PC/HD 360 connection, you to replace them with the standard composite connection to get a full screen display.

It still has issues, wait till you get to an area where the music gets all messy before all sound cuts out
But yeah on my HD tv it looks lovely.

Going in and out of the start menu fixes that.

Doesn't work when doing the crate job and you cant hear the QTE noise which causes a lot of cock ups.

Was the out of sync audio issue not due to the wrong region setting? Try switching bewteen NSTC and PAL

Yeah, the whole crate carrying thing is ruined by that voice. "How can we make this already mundane job even worse, I got it, hire that dude with the annoying ass gay sounds, you know the guy that imitates the sound of a guy taking it up the butt so well, yeah, him".

To be fair, it's just as bad, if not worse, in the DC version. "Hyush! Hyush! Daidadegen!"

Pointless job anyways so apart from when you are forced to and when you get the uppercut move i never do it.

I JTAGed an old 360 of mine I got from a friend when it was red ringed and I got to say that the homebrew BC emulator is much better than MS's retail one.
No audio glitch and the color filters work.
