ScummVMx 0.5.1
==============
Here it finally is, the XBOX port of ScummVM.
Sorry for the VERY long wait but the maintainer of ScummVM didnt want me to release the source just
yet until he read every word of the
K eula (which was a 40 page long fax he told me
to make sure
it didnt breach the GPL license.
I have not included the ISO9660 support, it's laggy/buggy and its much better to just play from HDD.
I might try to improve it later if there's much request for it.
The sources for the xbox port are available in the downloads section of
http://www.scummvm.org
- Guybrush
