i dont have them
but thinking of getting one myself

basically modded xbox allows you to play backups on your xbox
plus play media files like avi and mp3
you can also install linux and run it as a pc

plus if you add a big hdd in the xbox
you can keep the games in the hdd, so instead of loading from the cd/dvd
you load directly from the hdd

how much is the price you saw anyway?

yup i got one with xecuter 2.2 in it and it was a very good move...

the usual features, playing backups (honest guv)...running hacked dashboards which then let u run more software like emulators, multiregion dvd stuff....stuff like xbox media player that is good for mp3s and divx files (havent used the xbox media centre, that looks better but theres no final version released yet)...u can fit a large hdd in, i got an 80gig though u can now mod em with 300gig drives with the new bios...

well worth getting done basically

Hi everyone, just a quick one, never heard of x-box mods before.

Can I get my existing X-Box done?

Want to be able to watch R1 discs on it and play backed up disks, to keep the originals safe and scratch free 8)
How do you back up discs, assume it is done on your pc/cd writer with some special software

And finaly

What would this set me back and are there any risks involved?


All the best

Superted, yes you can get your exisiting console modded. You can make backup discs using your PC/DVD Writer, or optionally buy them from someone who sells them. This would set you back about £100 approx and there aren`t really any risks involved if you go with a good company.

Try Premodded or EliteConsoles. Two of the very best UK retailers of modded Xbox`s. I`ve used Premodded on about three occasions, all been very good but they only accept Nochex payment.

Arrrgggghhhh!!!

Anyone else notice that premodded.com don`t seem to be doing Courier modifications anymore - does anyone know if this is just over the Christmas period? I`ve asked all my relatives for cash this year as I was going to get my xbox done in January!

If they`ve stopped completely I know there are other places out there that do it but do you get the same fantastic spec of software loaded at other places?
