anyone got any good games for 360 they'd be willing to sell for relatively cheap?

generally, just using the box in your profile is the best way to do it. at least, that's what i use when i'm looking for something in particular. putting it in your sig with a link to some samples is a good way, too.

there's a hack for windows allowing the 360 controllers to be used as a control device (think arrow keys, enter, escape, and a few others). if possible, i'm doing that =) dd, i was thinking about fooling with a controller and seeing if i could hack it out and make it work in windows, but i'd have to hand-make a driver for it, and i don't think i'm going to have the time for that. xbox acquired (as of tonight), so when i get it i'll start posting pictures of the insides.

this is why my main desktop system, which is a monster, is going to be doing the grunt work for this. vintage is just going to be a display box.

the journey is a part of it, but i'm thinking about getting a low-profile graphics card to beef up hd content. it wouldn't be transcoding hd content anyways, since i back up all my dvds onto my desktop anyways. this way i can just have it hooked up to the home network and it streams them directly off of my pc.

while perusing the case mod section of overclock.net a few days ago, i came across higgins' great playstationpc thread. i dug around in the pictures a bit, which got me looking around at prices and stats for the new itx standard for motherboard design and the atom 330. which lead to this idea. being an xbox kind of guy as opposed to ps1, my plan is to take an original xbox (broken, they're way cheaper that way) and mod it into an HTPC/conversation piece for my stereo cabinet at home. i might add some adjustable cathode lights along the bottom for effects. i'll add a few fans (likely exhaust under the top logo and intake on the back), replace the controller ports with USB plugs taken from a few old cases i have sitting around, and generally attempt to keep it looking as much the same as the original as possible. i intend to use the original power button. the eject button will likely wind up being used for controlling the lights, if i choose to add them. i will also likely paint the case (my dad's an auto mechanic and has the tools sitting in our garage back home). parts: -used and broken xbox, purchased from ebay -intel BLKD945GCLF2 mini-itx motherboard with included dual-core Atom 330 @ 1.6ghz -picoPSU-90 12V DC-DC ATX power supply -dvd/cd-rw drive from my old school laptop (slim drive) -usb connectors and wiring from extra cases -slim cd-rom to 2.5" IDE adapter -ddr2 667 ram from newegg -80g hard drive from newegg (ideally a notebook drive) what do you think? i'll post pictures as i have them. i'm bidding on a few broken xboxes on ebay as we speak, so i should get one within the next few days. now, i realize that this isn't the norm for stuff that goes here - but i figure that people will think that it's kind of cool. considering that i might sell this when it's done, maybe an idea as to the work that went into it will make people think it's as cool as i do right now when i'm building it. step one: xbox acquired and disassembled. step two: parts purchased, en route till thursday. pics when they're here. thanks (so far) go out to: llamma.com's xbox mod section, www.mini-box.com

i love it when unknowns come out of nowhere to give us information that's actually worth reading =) good to see you, hoopy.

=) don't forget that xenogears started off much worse. i might put something in for this, if i hear something that piques my interest. let me get into the soundtrack a bit. if someone who has no musical talent wants to get in on a song, i'm sure i can help out.

hey, doug, where have you been?

wait, glitch?

don't troll, dumbass, if you don't care about the thread, get out. has anyone here been playing the pub games a lot? i've been doing poorly at them, myself.

i dealt with that recently. annoying as hell. lucky you didn't lose anything. that's what's nice about only having my windows installation on that disc...i can just format and start over if the worst happens, as opposed to backing stuff up constantly.

so i'm lazy and never do any work. i'll likely just sub the six that are done to OCR and be done with it, unless anyone wants to jump in and help me out.

fair enough. email or link?

i am so incredibly stoked about this, and i can't wait. like someone else in this thread said - even if it delivers half of what's promised, it's still going to be amazing.

thank god, i'm getting sick of wearing out my scroll wheel cause of people's monster sigs.

you know, if you'd just give me a due date, i'd have it done by then. way better than this wip date stuff =)

before i started tetrisphere, i almost did chrono cross by myself, but it's like 75 tracks...but with a percussionist onboard that makes it a lot easier. i actually think this is a good idea lol

chrono cross is worth playing a bunch of times in a row, i love that game.

wasn't this available for free on your site like a year ago? cause i definitely have it already.

hosnap burned...wait not really since this will be the first time in a while probably edit: just for reference, my personal dreamers track was done about a month after we started the project...about a year and four months before we were done.

great, go for it!

while i'm not really doing much on this particular project, my work on dreamers showed me that unless you constantly hound people to get stuff done, they won't do it (unless they're a really mature and well-known mixer, and got that way through hard work). so, pocket, unless you really put your nose to the grindstone, this project ain't going anywhere...and you can point your finger directly back home to yourself.

how much longer are you stationed there, anyways? and for that matter, where is home for you now anyways?

i lolled as well i used to pound ssb on the 64 pretty easily, but i wasn't that fast. same with starfox 64. been a while since i speedran anything, but my buddy and i about a month ago beat halo 3 in a few hours.
