Just saw this video on the tubes. Is there something to it, or is he just simply, uneducated?

Haha, no. Uneducated.
Welcome to 2013PS4 hasn't been released yet and people are already talking about emulating it?
This is an odd world we live in...
Even though original Xbox uses x86, no decent emulator exists. One of the reason is that despite using x86, it also incorporates a lot of undocumented instructions, instructions that were not found in x86.Emulating the CPU and GPU will not be required as PC's will be able to run all of that code native.

Xbox (original) isn't complicated at all. It's basically a consolized PC. PS2 has a far more complex CPU system than Xbox and it's been emulated. Only thing I can think of holding it back is no real demand for Xbox emulation. Most of the wanted games have ports on other systems (or PC).I know that one of the main reasons that we still have a hard time emulating Xbox (Original) and the old Sega Saturn, is because they're operating via a different, complex CPU system, so... In that sense, it would be logical that the PS4 would be ''easy'' to emulate.
