Anyone ever modded their videogame system? I'm about to mod my Xbox. I'm also getting software to save PS2 games to the harddrive. This is all for legal purposes, of course.

well, i wanted 2, but i dont got the money
i wanted to install mod chips, and stuff like that, also like installing other os in the game hardware, but what ur doing is cool 2

Modding? i thought u meant like making mods like Desert Combat for Battlefield but lol uhh i dont think ive ever modded a game system

i gotta modchip in my PS2 ^^ did it myself

yeah, i heard the soldering is easier than it sounds.

OshKoshPoshJosh, what legal purposes are there for installing a modchip in a ps2?

Yizaw!







It has an Xecutor 2.2 Pro Modchip,
Maxtor 120 GB 7200 HD,
Samsung 616t DVD/DVD-R/CD-R reader.
And everything you see on the outside :-D!

I meant that I wasn't doing anything illegal.

I had a mod chip installed in my psone so I could play import and "backup" copies of games.

The mod chip for Xbox is quite tubular. Can run Linux OS on it. "Hacking" the Xbox has become quite popular these days and actually modifying your system, I don't think is really legal. Your warranty = no more, so if you plan on busting your console anytime soon I suggest you don't proceed with your plans. However, there's A LOT you can do with a Xbox if you "hack" it. But if you play Xbox live with that modchip they can possibly ban you. So watch for that also. Ummm...no "hackers" have been sued by Xbox but a person who has been selling modchips on the internet with soddering directions has been: 5 months in the pen, $28,000 fine.

I had two attempts on modifying my Playstation 2. The first attempt was just gay so the PS2 was ruined and I had no other choice but to throw it away.


Then I bought a new PS2 and modded that one. It worked!

well, gamecube is so great, that you don't need to modify it. it's good the way it is, no modification required.

Haha I've never heard of anyone modding their GameCube, but I'm sure people have done it.

i dont play vidop gams/ know anything about them

my xbox is modded

kryogenix wants one of these:



mad expensive though

Very cool, indeed. Weren't those only coming out in Japan, though?

holy shit... give me a link to that

google "the panasonic q"

it's been around since gamecube's debut. but it's being produced in limited numbers so it's like $500. i want one!

I want one too.

I'm so tempted to buy one...

Best not to think about it...only makes it worse...


I want one!!!!

lik sang is a hk company. i wanted to buy dreamcast ddr pads from them, but the shipping was 20 bucks!

Whoa!! i wanna panasonic q!!

A Dreamcast DDR pad??? I never even knew DDR or games like that came out on Dreamcast. Time to go looking through good ol' Liksang.com

Xboxes are pretty awesome, i had mine modded a bit so my cousin could do lotz of wierd stuff... i think it had 2 b modded 2 play ddr 2

wow tofu! those are yummy~! I want one!

DDR 2????

yeah, void your warranty so you can play ddr. i would have just bought a ddr pad and played stepmania on my computer.

It's hard to find songs for Stepmania. I just bought DDRUltramix yesterday...speak of the devil. I am waiting for my universal controller adaptor to come in, though, so I can use my PS2 DDR pad on my Xbox.

I have a few hundred songs. From DDR 2nd mix to 4th mix. And DDR max. And a bunch of videogame and anime music.

whats installi g a moddding chip dun know what cha saying?

Where did you get all your songs for Stepmania from?

Sorry for the double post. Installing a mod chip is when you open up your game console to put in a chip or something so it can play import games, play backups, and do other things. Some cool things with a mod chip is that you can put one in an Xbox and save games to the harddrive. Only if you actually own the game, though.

xbox mod rocks!! not that expensive actually...100 bucks....all it is is replacing the xbox hard drive with a 200 GB hard drive so you can upload game onto it. i don't have one though because my mom isn't too hyped up about it.

Of course she isn't hyper about it...parents just don't understand. lol That's why I get those little giftcards that you can use to buy things online so I don't have to bug my parents to buy me things online.
