Modded Xbox

PureDeceit · 08-17-2008, 05:05 AM

Anyone else have an Xbox with a mod chip? I have the Xecuter3 with a Seagate 250 gig hd, second gen Xbox. Over 70 Xbox games, 800+ SNES games, and over 1k MAME games, all on the box and I just signed up for a 30 day free GameFly trial so I can get some of those hard to find titles like Dynasty Warriors 3. I'll also be getting Phantasy Star Online in the next day or two and I've already got an offline crack for it. Not too sure what to expect... never played a console MMORPG muchless playing one offline.

Along the topic of playing online, has anyone played with Xlink Kai? Any other free online servers like Kai?

Commence discussion!

Sadly, my computer wasn't compatible, so I couldn't flash my drive. That's something I've been meaning to do though. Too bad you can get banned from Live by doing that though :/

I've never played on Xbox Live so I wouldn't know... I have heard, though, that you can still play on Xbox Live if your Box OS has the option to (un)lock the HD. At least I think thats what M$ looks for when they check for modded boxes.

Thats why I brought up the program Xlink Kai. Any game that you can play using a link cable can be played online, connecting via their servers. It's free to download and play, though the setup can be a pain in the arse. I had it working at my ex-girlfriend's but I can't seem to get it setup now that I don't have direct access to the router/modem from upstairs... just this crappy 10/100 hub.

I flashed mine and been playing on live for last few weeks and no problems so far. They say in the fall they may ban people with the big update.

Just because you use the new method, such as stealth, to make it seem like you're using an unmodded console doesn't mean it can't or won't be detected.

So I take it you softmodded? I've been wondering for quite some time now what the point of softmodding is. The Xbox has, what, 8 gigs? Thats barely one game, unless we're talking emulators and roms.

Does Microshit really care about the original Xbox still? I mean, I figured they'd be all focused on the 360 by now. Then again, I suppose they're a little more dedicated than, say Blizzard. I'm refering to the original Diablo and the painfully abundant duping there.

Actually 8 gigs could fit close to ten games, but I was referring to the 360. I don't think they'd ban your console from Live, but certain games will.
