Yesterday a divine miracle happened and a wild Xbox360 S phased into reality in my apartment. What cool and neat things I can do with it?

      As far as I know, there is Clone Hero homebrew.

      I used to have full rockband set and an jtagged phat console. It was epic!

      I also own rocksmith cable with pc version of the game. Hope I can use it with Xbox too.

    Halo 3, and black ops 1 zombies were my favorites. Halo reach and ODST are great. We also used to play Left 4 Dead 2 at LAN parties

    Those are all on PC though (BO1 PC port kinda sucks)

      i really like the delidded image that shows that the “combined chip package” shows that it’s literally just two chips in the same package

    Play old Minecraft and Forza Horizon 1 and 2. There are lots of good games for the 360.

    There are bunch of good games for it. You could also mod it and look into homebrew and emulators.

      I am specifically looking into modding. Is there anything cool I can do with it besides ABadAvatar? I am planning to expand storage to 1TB SSD. Drive also can be flashed but it seems to be super expensive to get flashing tool for that.

      Also, if I go ABadAvatar route, is there a way to lock xbox into autobooting directly into Aurora without waiting for ABadAvatar to perform unschackle?

        If you want a mod that persists, you’d need to do a hardware modification called the RGH exploit. It’s doable on an Xbox 360 S, but you need decent re-soldering skills to pull it off. I haven’t done it in years, but it sounds like ABadAvatar could make the process a lot easier than it used to be.

          I possess soldering skills so that is no issue.

          I been reading and things are confusing for me. Some say that I only need 2 wires to run across the motherboard and run ABadAvatar. But if I read ConsoleMods wiki, it seems that I need a programmer. I have ordered rpi pico for this and will dive into it once I figure out the process.

            I know things have changed since I last did an RGH setup, which is probably where the confusion comes from; things are changing even though the scene was most active 10+ years ago.

            I imagine you don’t need a NAND flasher now that ABadAvatar exists, but I could be mistaken. The process used to be, at a really high level: solder the NAND flasher/dumper, dump the original NAND, solder the RGH timer, then flash a NAND with a good timing profile for that console.

        I don’t know the program names anymore, but a buddy had his 360 homebbrewed with emulators and that was a good time
