First, I don't think this is the right section to post this in, but anyway...

MAME on xbox is pretty basic, and a lot of games don't run full speed. The xbox doesn't have enough RAM to emulate a lot of arcade games. If you really want to play MK2 on your xbox, get Shaolin Monks or MAT2. If you still feel like trying, you should be able to FTP the rom files from your PC into the MAMEoX folder on your xbox.

MK2 doesn't really need a lot of power. I have a Pentium 4 3.2ghz, and a gig of ram and it plays fine. I've never used any kind of front-end so I can't comment on Maximus.
