Riley @rycaster.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Life’s made it impossible for me to do big projects lately, but when I FINALLY have the time and money for them again, modding my 360 is likely my next big thing. That and getting a replacement PS3 for the one that YLOD’d and redoing that whole thing. 200

Believe it or not, until now, the 360 still never had a softmod and while some exploits in recent years had gotten most of the way, this is the real deal.

Riley @rycaster.bsky.social · 08/10/2026I might be the odd one out in that I want a Super remake more than Fusion. Fusion is totally fine as-is. I understand the reverence Super has, but its control scheme and physics not matching the rest of the franchise is becoming a harder sell with time and I wanna see its aesthetics cranked to 11. 100
