    But microsoft have to have learnt from the normal xbox. There is a mountain of them modded and I'd bet that it has affected game sales...

    I hate the way they make this sound like a good thing for the consumer as if a 'trusted platform' is the only platform that wont bite your kid's face off.

    Feck them, I've got xbmc and that's all I need.

    from xbox-scene.com

    >> Gamasutra.com posted an article about what they learned from Xbox 360 presentation at the GDC Europe 2005 in London, most of which has been covered in our previous news items, but in their conclusion they have something very interesting. Andre Vrignaud, Director of Technical Strategy for Xbox Live, referred to modchips for Xbox360:
    More interestingly, a question from an audience member on the security for Xbox 360 in terms of 'mod chips' and other devices that modify for imported/illegal content prompted a reply that Microsoft took 2 and a half years on security this time round, whereas the Xbox only had around a year. Vrignaud prompted: "Never say never", but he thinks it's going to be a long time before the Xbox 360 gets modded.
