Maybe it's time to replace my old and loud console 👀

great way to celebrate 20 years of the introduction to HD gaming! I have FIFA 06 and Quake 4, that are launch titles for 360

Wow, so no more RGH. That would be amazing

mansen.bsky.social•24 days ago

Well.... not quite. It's not persistent, so you're looking at a 10-20 minute boot time with a non-100% success chance every time.

It does make RGH a lot easier to do, since you can dump NAND and keys without soldering first.

Thanks, I didn’t know that. In that case I hope they keep developing it and can hopefully improve it. Although I know my hardware I’m not comfortable with soldering, so will probably never try to RGH one of my 360’s.

it’s a ~30-35% success rate, if y’all didn’t know just yet :)

Just gotta get it working once as far as I'm concerned. To grab the nand and keys without even more soldering than what RHG needs.
