I think this is fake. The only way it could be possible this soon, is if there was a major leak within MS. But I'm still about 99% sure this if fake. There are just a lot of people that want to get free advertising making up lies.

When (if?) a proper modchip for the 360 becomes available, I hope it won't result in a bunch of early-adaptors losing their Live accounts. Having only just started using XBox Live since buying a 360, I'm loving it, and gaming without it wouldn't be the same now

TBH, if I could get the 360 to do everything XBMC does on a chipped original XBox, I could live without the ability to play "backups" if it meant risking my Live account.

yeah xbox live is the shiznit...so a working modchip will mandate a second 360

That's exactly what I said. If they had gone with HD-DVD, then for the time being, there wouldn't be any disc ripping because of the lack of HD-DVD rippers. And when they are created, very few would be desperate enough to download 15-30 gb image files and store those kinds of things on the HDD.

With regular DVD, they don't have a new technology and as soon as the 360 is cracked, all the DVD tools we have now can be used.

So, because of the lack of space as well as the wide availibility of dvd ripping software, I believe MS made a mistake here.

Wow. That fact that even that much progress has been made is amazing. I'm no engineer, but in college I did have some electronics classes where we would watch data pass through on the circuit boards through an oscilloscope, and it was fairly complex for me. I can't begin to imagine bypassing all the encryption and such the 360 uses. Kudos to whatever team has gotten that far.

Ditto: I'm still amazed by the full bit adder. Hell, the half-adder.

Show Me A Video

Not some random speculation . Yeah we all know that Mod-chips have become big bizz , and that their is a lot of money being dropped into it . I don't need some guy telling me this again . Thank you for your theories .

Wonder what the first clone chip will be called

I doubt that, people all already downloading them & storing them for when a working mod chip comes out that'll pay backups. Chk http://newzbin.com, you can read the comments from users there on each 360 release.

Enigmah360 anyone?

Would be fun to see the first mod in a month, but to be honest.... this is highly unlikely. MS didn't just coded a simple "easy to crack" type of protection in it. Just wait and see what happens....

It's just waiting..... and waiting, and waiting!

I don't expect a modchip so early.

Altima NEO · « **Reply #29 on:** December 20, 2005, 03:24:00 PM »

Im probably gonna wait for a later gen modchip, as well as a later gen 360

if MS was smart, theyll be able to break modchip support by updating the hardware (much like sony does) or possibly softwar
