(sorry the pics are so crappy, im workin on gettin a better cam and updating the pics)
SHIPPING:
came in a WELL packaged envolope with bubble wrapping. the mod it self was taped onto a pice of hard cardbord. In other words, it was secure and probally wont be damaged in the shippin process.
>PIC<:
PIC 1
PIC 2
CONTENT:
what i recided was JUST the mod chip it self. no instructions. although instruction are not needed for a guy at my level, but a newbie mite want em. Even a note saying check www.x-elixis.com for instructions would have been good. BUT considering i am testing this and NOT buying it, it seemed ok.
MODCHIP: (quality etc.)
the modchip is actually VERRY flexiable , and that is GOOD. i found tat i ended up lookin unger to check if my points were conected. I actully took my soldering iron and pressed it on the plastic to see, and guess what, i timed it for 60 seconds, and all i got was a LITTLE plastic melting and nothin really happeneing.
>PIC<:
PIC 3
PIC 4
INSTALATION:
TIME Installing: 5 mins
TOTAL time: 10 mins
total time included me opening my case, goin on the net and lookin up instructions and truble shooting.
The instalation was as easy as promised. I HAVE NEVER INSTALLED A MODCHIP B4.( i DO have SOLDER practice tho, with circuits and such) but i found it REALLY ez, all i did was. put my chip on the LPC area. tuch my iron there for 1-1.5 seconds and done....BUT i did have truble on one point. and thats this point:
(IMG:http://www.x-elixis.com/images/installation/9%2B1.jpg)
the point is the bottom right most.(one right above the sideways "2") in this pic u can see that it had solder. but in real life(my 1.0) xbox it did not, while the rest of the points did. Well i dident knw that when i slapped this guy on it, and obiously it wouldent stick. so i looked under(by turning the modchip, this is where flexability comes in) and i wus able to bend it enuf that i could solder a wire in that hole(EZ AS HELL) and solder the wire to the modchip. (this step could be avoided by dropping a ball of solder in that hole b4 puttin in the modchip. aight. NEXT
I used this site to figure out how to do the alternative D0 point with a switch, (EXTREMELY EZ AND SIMPLE)
PIC 5
DONE.
end result. workin w/o a hitch, amazin modchip, actually uses the flex-a-bility
SCORE:
4/5
Pros:
EZ to use(BIGGEST PRO)
flexable
good idea,
EXTREMELY FRIENDLY SERIVE
and good shippin
Cons:
Price
Nasis-x tellin every one its "3d" :P
Over all: good modchip, definately recomended to any one, bringing down the price a lil would give this modchip a 4.9999999/5 and including a instruction manual, or pics would give it a 5.
(again im reallysorry the pics are so crappy, im workin on gettin a better cam and updating the pics)
Thx every one for reading. pls tell me wut u think of the review.

need not big say what was ontop of the X-Elixis!
all consumer-eaters need to know
is that it is hardened
and tough!
does the flexi-plastic melt?
NO
does the X-Elixis ever become 2D?
NO
$50 is a deal
for the programmer came in
and weighed $1000!
No worries....
if you do not love-dove the X-Elixis
just tiny wait for the
LUCIFER-XDEMENSION!

cannot get braked
with an X-Elixis in the BOX!
even if would
the X-Elixis would life-bring the MuBo
and stop shock-static!
Does the Matrix do this?!?!?!?!

What is all joke
about expressing features of the X-Elixis?
I was stating
that the X-Elixis prevents shock-spears!
And that the Matrix
which is 2D
cannot prevent spikes!
Simple!

I would take this review with a grain of salt, heck, with a bag of salt. Hell, I wound't trust a review coming from just anybody. What I couldn't understand, no matter how I tried, was that Nasis-X said he sent a sample to the admins of this site for a review but I couldn't find a single mention of it on the main page. Hell, even the two modchip based on the cheapmod was mentioned, why not this freaking 3D, do-it-all, all-in-one, one helluva chip?
Post by: nazis X. on January 08, 2003, 01:14:00 AM
Only the X-Elixis!
Do you not knowlege the pluses now?????????

Huh??
Have you actually read any of Nasis's posts?? Alikaz write and spells NOTHING like Nasis. One can actually understand Alikaz!
But, if the review led you to always question reviews from people in these forums... I guess that can only be a good thing. Truth is, you never know who's writing these reviews, and whether or not they have some vested interest in the stuff they're reviewing.
Nazis's impression of Nasis isn't far off. Though, I too wish he'd give it up. It was funny the first time... but now it's just getting annoying.

Glad to see I got fans.... or fans of the 'genre' or whatever.
The only people who think it isn't funny is the people who think I'm doing it to mock a 'foreigner' or one of his very few fanboys EDIT: Forgot mentioning those who dislike the joke because they're jelous of my m@d c0m3di skillz. Let me note that I don't do this to make fun of how he writes.... mostly what he writes about. Tell ME that you weren't sick of hearing him post that stupid '3 Demension' and 'Fantasy World' crap. Ever since I started this, he stopped posting here. All of you should thank me.

First of all I would like to thanks Allikaz for reviewing X-elixis on his console
and I am glad to see that he is satisfied with it!
Then I have to say that samples has been send to xbox-scene also,
in the same address that we have sent Devil mod in the past,
and we hope that they will receive it and post about it in the news page...
