Dreamcast emulator on Original Xbox is looking pretty sweet! Needs work, but great first steps. www.reddit.com/r/originalxb...

It doesn't seem like this should work, but it totally does! You can even still video chat with others over Insignia (Xbox Live) in 2025. Here's a guide on how you can mod an Eyetoy to work on Og Xbox: consolemods.org/wiki/Xbox:Ey...

Xbox One thumbsticks on Original Xbox controllers are a winning combination. 👏 Feels so crispy and fresh.

P.s. the skins for UIX Lite are awesome too!

For people who want to mod their #OriginalXbox but keep the stock experience, check out UIX Lite. It retains the classic feel, but adds extra menu options and even renders in 720p! github.com/OfficialTeam... Video credit: @milenko.org

MakeMHz has issued a DMCA takedown against Pandora, an automated way of accessing Xbins. Xbins is a repository of homebrew apps, games, and BIOSes for the Original Xbox that has been around for many, many years. Xbins still exists, but Pandora is now unavailable to download or be developed publicly.

Context: LoveMHz uses this as an example that PrometheOS stole parts of his code. When I asked the author, Equinox, about this he has this to say about the apparent similarity (attached).

Hey @lovemhz.bsky.social looks like Microsoft stole your delay durations from Stellar too. Might want to send them a DMCA takedown or something. Idk

#originalxbox dashboard running in 720p looks so good. It's a shame the devs never made it run like this back in the day. It really shows off all the 3D work put into scenes. 😍

Exciting news from Prehistoricman. He's figured out how to flash v1.6 #OriginalXbox systems! For 20 years, this nut hasn't been cracked, but now, for the first time, all Xbox consoles will be able to be hardmodded without using a modchip.

He said it's derived from "startup chaos" and is "completely random"... so I wonder if he even *could* test it himself even if he tried. At this point, I'm leaning on it having been present at some point and then removed (without his knowledge).

I try hard to keep the natural speaking rhythm of our guests intact so that it doesn't sound artificial while making it more pleasant to listen to. There were a few weird cuts that happened where someone gets cutoff mid-word but most of those are actually just Discord cutting out for a split-second.

Jordan Chase @goteamscotch.com · 06/01/2025

A peek behind the scenes -> In this episode, I made a total of 764 cuts totaling 18 minutes. I trimmed down pauses, umms, accidentally talking over one another, and other oddities that come from having a conversation over the internet to help the conversation flow better & be smoother to listen to.

"Bass Pro Circuit" was also on the console. I assume it's a port? Seems to be made with RenderWare, but doesn't look like the other fishing games I could find that were made with RW. en.everybodywiki.com/List_of_Rend...

I found an unreleased game on this debug kit. Rampage: Total Destruction. This game was published for GC/PS2/Wii, but never came out Original Xbox.

I got a debug kit original Xbox in the mail today. This one was used at Pipeworks. I wiped down half and looks like it should just be superficial dirt thankfully. No cracks or scratches. 👍 Going to open it up and give it a thorough cleaning. Stay tuned.

Yeah I'd agree. Documentation generated based on summaries provided in comments in source... and those comments themselves may also be auto-generated.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: if your documentation on a parameter simply explains "turns on or off obscure cryptically-named feature", then you don't have documentation. 🙃

Tonight on The Usual Places I'll be interviewing the founders of Pipeworks to discuss the creation of the Original Xbox boot animation. Microsoft enlisted Pipeworks to create this now-iconic animation for their new console, and it was their first project as a company. Episode dropping in 1-2 weeks

Happy birthday to the Original Xbox! On this day in 2001, Microsoft released the #Xbox in North America along with 19 launch titles, including Fuzion Frenzy, Halo: Combat Evolved, and Project Gotham Racing. A year later, Xbox Live was launched, revolutionizing how games are played online.
