 if you dont release it then great "your work your rules and EVERBODY should respect that" if you do release it then even greater just dont make it to easy for the script kiddies.

I honestly had a laugh at this part. Anyways it seems things are going forward quite nicely, there hasn't been any solid BAD NEWS on IRC or xbh, and that's a pretty damn good sign. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Can't we all just get along?  I mean really, how cool would it be to be able to install MAC OSX on the 360?  It's based off of macs power pc architecture anyway.  So that would be the most easiest to port over.  Sure vista may follow later on but I look for OSX first.  And that would be really sweet to run an Apple OS on an Xbox.  I know this is a ways down the road but it will all be possible once this is released.  It's smaller then 90% of pcs out there easy to carry around with you when you travel, you can have a wireless internet adapter connected to it, the possibilities with homebrew and everything else are endless with the 360's power.  So here's to hoping that it gets released and that I have all the stuff on hand to do it as soon as it comes out.

Just finished reading all 20 pages here.  I cannot wait for homebrew to finally hit the 360. I love emulators to death, and I've been dreaming of the possibilities, of emulators running on the 360. Imagine N64, MAME, *crossing fingers, Sega Saturn*

I hope the devotion we saw with Xbox1 will show up again when this hack is out in the wild. Thank you to everyone involved in this. I'm going out tonight and buying a spare 360 just for this occasion!

Bring On Homebrew! Go Emus, Go!

To everyone who feels bad about updating their 360, I was in the Beta so i just picked up a used "Broken" 360 from ebay for $53 shipped.(console only) Only problem with it is it "Makes Noise" while playing a game, Either a bad fan or DVD drive and i can replace either for $20-30. No graphics errors or RROD, Just "Noise".

Anyway, If your handy enough to do this mod when it drops then a simple repair should be no problem for you so you can get a great deal on a 360 from ebay.
Better yet find a cheap 360 that had its drive key lost and recover it after you install the coming hack. 360 DVD drives go for $20-30 on ebay right now.

If you can't do the mod yourself then save up your pennies to buy a pre-modded 360 if this hack gets that far.

Can someone with some real knowledge on this tell me how legit this is, and what kind of timeframe we're looking at for this to be released(days, weeks, months)?  That site last had a update 1 year ago, and then 1 year before that.  How credible is this really?  I don't want to not be able to play any online games for 6 months just for a chance of this being released.

5. Sometimes I really wonder if you know anything about the xbox 360 at all. The exploits are not the same stop assuming things. Also how can you make it boot an xex? Can you please explain that process to me to indicate to everyone here you know the slightest of what your rambling about?

i dont give a damn about an xex u moron. the point of this exploit is for us to be able to run linux from boot and have *full* hardware access while in it. stop talkin like u kno shit, u friend of a friend of the guy who made the exploit. do something productive with ur life other than leaking secrets.

Whether the system runs a PowerPC or Intel chip has no bearing on whether it can run OS X. It's all about the bios. Mac's don't use a bios, it's called an EFI, which is why you have to do some OS X patching to get it to run on hackintosh's.

*sigh*
props to anyone dedicated enough to break the security on the hv again, but you're not really going to gain any respect by refusing to release the hack. Especially if Microsoft's latest update really blocks it. Now you're just wasting our time. Either release something, or be ready to loose all credit for your work. No other hacker is going to be giving you credit when they're forced to redo your work!
I don't want to say that you have to release it or even that you should without reason. But since now everyone is waiting, you might as well suck it up and show us what you've got. It's already blacklisted by Microsoft, so the only thing left to loose is credit for your work. I suppose I should be impressed if you're not after fame, so please prove me wrong and release it anonymously
Seriously, just release this hack, or some more info. At least your work can't be stolen once you give it away to the world for free! Sure, it might be used for things you don't like, by people you despise. But does it really matter? It will also make a lot of people happy and entertained, and we can get to work developing all sorts of things.

p.s. If my xbox is going to brick, it's gonna be from failing to install linux, not microsoft's stupid patch. I'll be waiting optimistically for some development on this front.

 It's really more like "load some kexts/delete some kexts" rather than actual patching. In fact, I bought a board with an Atom 330 on it that is a mostly vanilla install; I only needed about 5 kexts total and it works just like a normal Mac would (including updating). The only thing extra is the bootloader (you can choose from a few; I went with Chameleon, of course).

 I really see no reason why the same thing couldn't be done with an open Xbox 360 and a PPC version of Leopard.

Nice looks like its going to be released.

Right, stop the abuse or this thread WILL be closed and every involved member will receive a vacation AT BEST.

You have been warned multiple times, this has gone on long enough. Calm down or don't post, simple (IMG:style_emoticons/default/love.gif)

Wat.

That quote wasn't even directed at you it was directed at leo or if you are leo then you have multiple accounts which is against the rules...
As for leaking secrets I am the guy keeping things from being leaked but the things I take care of are completely unrelated to this thread. More flamebait. Posts like these are what is making this thread uncivilized and causing stir on the forum.

Too little and too late, plus the Xbox 1 was easier for PC geeks to develop on due to the nature of the hardware.
This hack isn't going to be anything big, mark my words.
