I would LOVE to say that the xbox 360 is going to be a safe haven for emulation purposes, just like the original was but i doubt it. You have to look at it from a buisness perspective. The original xbox was just a toned down pc (without all the os-processing nonsense). Now, potentially, this can be good because it makes people buy xbox's to play their old school games and homebrew BUT, most of the people who have the cognitive ability to harness this ALSO know how to pirate xbox games (and have the means to do it) which these exploits make VERY very easy to do. I know i dont but, i also know, there are many that do. ALLLLL im saying is, i would be surprised if we enjoyed the same prosperity in the 360 scene as we have at the xbox scene. Micro$oft DAMN WELL knows about this and is, for sure, trying as hard as they can to try and prevent this sort of thing from happening on the next generation of Micro$oft gaming consoles. I KNOW it will be cracked eventually but i doubt the determination will be as high just because it won't be as easy (criticize as you wil, that's just the way the world works...). Needless to say, i am STILL very excited about the 360 scene...hopefully i am wrong.
