We've been working hard behind the scenes on EA and Xbox 360 B.C. for quite some time; to prevent burnout and for a change of pace, Luke took a short break over the past few weeks to work on something completely different, and has managed to restore Final Fantasy XI on the PS2. youtu.be/VAfy5wBSYXo

Here's my newest bit of fun: ABadAvatar, a fully automatic from-boot dashboard exploit for the Xbox 360, using Grimdoomer's BadUpdate exploit! This isn't the final release, but I wanted to get an official source for it before things got *too* out of hand :p github.com/shutterbug20...

We've also started research into Xbox 360 and Games for Windows Live support, starting with backwards-compatible Original Xbox titles. This will allow users to play over 100 Xbox Live-enabled Xbox games (once supported on Insignia), including voice chat, on their Xbox 360. (5/6)

I built a portable Xbox. This isn't a PC handheld, it isn't emulation, this is a real motherboard from a real Xbox. It has a 9” 480p display, pure digital video/audio, 100W USB C charge and play, and I'm currently adding WiFi 6 for wireless Xbox Live functionality. Yes, really.
