If this game can be emulated on a PS4 and Xbone, is it really much of a stretch to put it on PC?

When did it get emulated on ps4? It probably wouldn't be that hard since the Xbone is supposed to be basically a pc

It will never get emulation support on the playstation the cell is too powerful

Emulation on PC is coming along well if that's what you mean. Game's spaghetti code though, a native port was never planned nor will it happen.

I understand the code is bad, but is it really SO bad? I mean surely it wouldnt be THAT hard to fix?

I actually don't get it how Xbone backward compat works, programming wise. Xbone/PS4/PC architecture is like the same. If they got around to doing it on Xbone to begin with, isn't a lot of the work done? I was hoping 1 would have been remastered to PS4 before 2 came out, but seems like it's never happening at this point. 2 will absolutely come out on PC and you're underage if you disagree, but I can't see 1 ever coming out there either at this point

When RDR was being developed, R* was using an engine that was going through major revision. Because of this, there was a constant need for code revision straight to the last minute before shipping. R* devs talked about how surprised they were that the game ran on anything at all. Knew a guy who worked on the game who said the grind leading up to launch was crazy, had to work weekends and put in 10hr shift pretty regularly. The housers called in their secret weapon Benzies who wasn't even meant to be working on the game to put the fear of god into the team. Shit ran at like 620p 25ish fps on the PS3 and had some of the craziest glitches I've ever seen. If there was to be a pc release it would be remade in RDR2.
Worth it for the insane euphoria physics - which are of course gimped to high-heaven in GTA5 to spare the technical headache.

Its an emulator. Basically when you play a 360 game on the xbone, a program is pretending to be a xbox 360. Now each game has tailored settings or programming so thats why you cant play every 360 game.

Imagine Microsoft has the source code for the X360 so they have a leg up on emulators made by random Joe on the internet, Microsoft knows the inner workings of the 360 so it's easier for them to create an accurate emulator.
