XBox Mech Softmod

Ok. So, now that I have a new XBOX 360, I had an extra XBox laying around doing nothing. So I decided to Softmod it using an exploit found in Mechwarrior, an awesome game, which I have played many time and enjoyed. Using the information found at the Xbox-Linux project, I was able to successfully replace the XBox Live menu on my original XBox, with a Linux menu, that boots up a version of Xebian linux. Add to it a nice clean install of MythTV to allow playback of video recorded on my MythTV box and we have an XBox that still plays all my games, and plays back video that I’ve recorded, in perfect quality. Absolutely Brilliant!

Trackbacks Dead?

Erik on NSLog() asked if TrackBacks are dead. I’d have to say pretty much. Although, I do like using them when I can, but the spammers do love them.

Mechwarrior Tournament

So, I just finished my first Mechwarrior tournament over at Tripple Play. I won. And came away with 2 new pilots for my mechs. Very nice indeed. I’m still interested in setting up my own tournamets over at Ray’s comic shop. I got some contact information that should help out with that. So we’ll see what develops.

Super Fantabulous XBox Day II

The second SFXBD was a great success and a lot of fun for all who came. I have a few pics from my phone, thanks to Aman for hosting it again, no better venue than a white empty basement. New addition this time around included a 600 point Mechwarrior game, go Kodiak.
