No, not directly. xemu emulates the hardware of the system, so you'll need to have a disc image of your game backup. You can use [extract-xiso](https://github.com/xboxdev/extract-xiso) or qwix to create an image. #### Q: Does xemu support "redump" style ISOs? No, not yet.

When a game exercises a piece of code in xemu that has not yet been implemented or verified, xemu will `assert` which forces execution to stop. The reason for this is that anything happening beyond that point may be unpredictable and significantly increase the debugging burden. -#### Q: Is sound working?
