' Xenesis is a port from Gens to the xbox '
Whats New/Fixed:
- Completely rewritten
- New improved UI, better look and feel (no more purple :o( )
- New config file format - not compatible with previous version
- Improved favourite support - not compatible with previous version
- Improved cheat code support
- More graphics filtering options (including HQ2X which is a bit on the slow side)
No more rom path or rom sharing issues to worry about!!
New browsing ability - access all drives and folders including dvd-rom.
Add required roms/folders (from any source - local, DVD, network etc) to favourites.
Set 'Start in Favourites' option to automatically go to favourites on startup.
Full xbox save game compatability

- Control configuration can be saved individually for each game
Improved controller menus

may not work correctly with some games due to bugs in Gens source e.g. columns 3
SMB/Relax network share support
- load roms + sega cd images/mp3s from a windows/Relax share
