Microsoft Xbox
Good news everyone, car boot sales have started up again, and at the second one I went to I spotted a box with an original Xbox on top, so £25 was quickly exchanged, and the box went straight to the boot of my car The box contained a mass of cables and Xbox related paraphernalia, but no games. At this point I had no idea if it was even working Anyway, here's the top and bottom, it's as you would expect Front and back, four controller ports, an eject disc tray button, and the momentary power button. The rear has a standard C7 (fig-8) power lead, video out and a network socket And the sides, which are just vents I have two advanced SCART cables, not sure what's in the box though, the TV said RGB on it's on-screen info panel And a normal composite video lead A Duke controller And two S controllers, I only got two detachable connectors though It works, I wasn't expecting it to Holy moly, it would appear this is a modded Xbox with some games installed, I have tried to show you all the games in the photos above An old version of XBMC (now Kodi) That's a somewhat "interesting" test screen for the 50/60Hz switcher It can play DVD's from all regions, I am in region 2, so that's the only discs I have, but they play fine Playing with different skins boXplorer (file explorer) Trying out some of the games, here's Sonic Heroes The Simpsons Hit and Run Project Gotham Racing Unrelated stuff that was in the box Some random cables An Xbox360 composite video lead and a Kinect A Xbox360 power pack And whatever this is Updates Another Xbox (Working but stock) Xbox Crystal (Gives Error 12 on boot, E12 is to do with the DVD drive) Another Xbox, bought at a car boot sale for £2.
