Evidence scope
Upstream README describes a native port built from the Xbox 360 release’s own code, an installer that verifies the owner’s disc image, supported platforms and known issues, and states that no game files are included or distributed. No REA involvement is claimed.
Know before you try
Requires your own legally obtained Xbox 360 disc; only the USA and European Spanish discs install so far. Movies and speech stay in the disc’s language; steering-wheel support is experimental; the Windows build is a beta and needs an AVX2 CPU. We have not independently tested it.
Status
Active (0.2.x); USA and European Spanish discs
