xbox...there are hundreds of things you can do with an xbox and it has been streamlined and can now be done very easily. PS2 on the other hand is very difficult to mod and there is very little to do with it once it has been modded
xbox by far i've seen what you can do with an modded ps2 and it suck xbox you have play dvd,mp3 anythign you can think of and there alot kind of thing
OKAY SO WHATS THE BEST MOD CHIP AND HARDDRVIE FOR THE XBOX.ALSO SOMEBODY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE A CHIP FOR THE XBOX THAT WILL LET YOU PLAY PS2 AND GAMECUBE. IS THIS TRUE? AND IF SO WHATS THE NAME OF IT BECAUSE I WANT IT.
Dont bother getting a mod-chip if all you plan on doing is playing back-up games ...emulators...dvds....movies and such....just soft-mod it ...and there is'nt a best hard drive just the size that is right for you....also you have been lied to ...impossible to play ps2+gamecube on xbox although you can play nes,snes,genesis,gba,n64 and many others...
Not true. What the XBOX can emulate is the PS1 and pretty much any system before it but it's not the chip that does it, it's an emulator. You can softmod your box and install emulators and have the same capability. XBOX is the better system to mod. If you want to get a chip, Xecuter 3 is the best, hands down. TRUST ME. If it's too expensive, there are alternatives. But the advice given was correct, if you want to play backups...save your money and do a softmod. More efficient for that need.
I feel that I had the opurtunity to learn alot modding a ps2 . This is not a vote for ps2 being the best, Im just saying it is good learning experince. And it was my first system I modded . I did get bored with it quickly. Thats what pushed me to take a crack at a xbox.I never thought of owning a xbox till modding a ps2. I have had a great time modding and remodding my xbox.There are by far many more things you can do with the xbox. I have bairly skimmed the inventory at xbins. But plan on trying as much as I can. Thanks guys!
I found this website to be very helpful while softmodding http://www.techfreaks.org/articles/modxbox.shtml softmodding^^^ http://www.techfreaks.org/articles/modxbox2.shtml adding larger hard drive^^^ you can softmod any xbox.... when you buy a hard drive to go with it just make sure the hard drive is lockable http://xboxdrives.x-pec.com/ website that lists lockable hard drives
Hey puffdank ! Those are the same websites I have used. Most excelently written, and no bs just thebasic steps to getr dun !
The only con i would haev to say for softmoddign versus modding with a chip is softmodding can really screw up an xbox for many first timers and once their screwed up they ususally involove a modchipto get back. So why waste ur money on to things. When you can buy a 15$ chip from www.divineo.com, solder it in and go to town. @marble (or should I say MARBLE!) you dont use a chip for softmodding you use exploits in the system and the games to make xbox do something it wasnt inteneded for. btw caps lock is located below the tab key.
yea people do mess up there systems a lot but thats becuz they rush into things and dont read how to do it right.if u softmod make sure your reading as many tut's as u can to make sure u do it right the first time.i mean softmodding is not hard in short all u do is put save game files onto your xbox and put in the game that the saves require very simple.and with the new krayzie/ndure 2.0 softmod u can even play on xbl with it which is great.
is this mod chip (Muppet-X with LPC PCB Rebuild) a good one to play downloaded back up game in my xbox.
Again if all you are planning on doing is playing BACKUPS then dont bother w/ a modchip....just softmod
well both systems are nice as i have 2 PS2's and an Xbox My V7 PS2 uses Swap Magic and a fliptop, cheaper way to go but it gets old having to swap discs and patch or rebuild games to work with Swap Magic. Then there is my V12 with DMS4 Pro chip, which i just love. No muss no fuss. Just stick in your back up and go. but since i have had my Xbox, which is not real long just a few months, i have found that it seems to be much more versitile. You just seem to have a lot more you can do with that system then you can with the PS2 You can play games off the HDD with no compatitbility issues that i have found, listen to internet radio while you work on your PC, and a bunch of other things that i just have not learned yet. copying games for Xbox is a bit more complicated with the Xbox than it is with the PS2 for sure. But all around i think i like it better than i do the PS2.
WHATS THE DIFFERENTS BETWEEN THE EXPENSIVE CHIPS VS THE CHEAPER ONES WHATS SOME OF THE OTHER THING YOU CAN DO. I WANT TO GET A MOD CHIP FOR MY XBOX TO PLAY GAMES, DOWNLOAD GAMES,MOVIES,MUSIC,PICS ETC. FROM MY HARD DRIVE, AND LEARN SOME NEW THINGS TO DO WITH IT. CAN ANYONE HELP ME IN CHOOSING A CHEAP BUT REAL GOOD MOD CHIP.I HEARD ABOUT THE MUPPET X, SHADOW X, ARE THEY GOOD? XENIUM ICE IS ONE TOO BUT MORE EXPENCIVE. I NEED HELP PLEASE (LOL)
