Ravenfreak Posted July 25 Share Posted July 25 Many people hack their older Xbox consoles so they can run emulators on them. Heck you can run your current Series X/S in dev mode and get access to Retroarch. Back in the day though, you had to install either a mod chip on your Xbox 360 or hacks on your original Xbox hard drive. I have a modded original Xbox that I got from a co worker years ago. I've been thinking about opening up the console, giving it a good clean and getting a new hard drive and installing a newer mod on it though. Once I get some better soldering skills, I want to get a 360 and mod it. I have a 360 E but I don't think I can mod my model. Do you have a hacked Xbox?

Anders Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 One of my original Xboxes is hacked, and has bunch of games on the hard drive. I did't actually know that it was when I bought, I just wanted it because it was the limited crystal version. A lot of the games on it doesn't seem to want to boot at all though. I looked into adding some games of my own to it, but it seemed very complicated by today's standards, so I'll just play my discs instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killamch89 Posted July 26 Share Posted July 26 No - I don't. I've always been curious about it but it's the fear of having a hacked device start infecting my own network that made me kind of hesitant. Granted, give time and patience, I probably could've learned to do it myself like how I used to jailbreak my IPhone and had Super Nes and Gba emulators on it back in the day.

Lens Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I don't have but my friend does have a soft-modded original Xbox. He installed a new hard drive and he then load it up with emulators and classic games as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Button Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I’m absolutely interested in modding my Xbox consoles. It's like you're breathing a new life into old hardware and exploring the world of retro gaming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
