Cars Race-O-Rama Recompiled: an Xbox 360 recompilation
Cars Race-O-Rama Recompiled uses ReXGlue v0.3 to recompile the Xbox 360 game into a native executable. It runs with game data extracted from the user's ISO into an assets folder beside the executable. The author reports that it can be played from start to finish, with slowdowns and lighting errors.
