altezza Veteran Posted June 12, 2002 Veteran Share Posted June 12, 2002 Read this article: http://news.com.com/2100-1040-935092.html?tag=fd_top Here's an excerpt: The first homemade software to take advantage of new hacker add-ons for the Xbox has started to dribble onto the Internet, including a media player that purportedly runs DivX video files. Hehe the hackers always a step ahead...but the popularity will grow very quickly. Nothing to stop them from re-inventing the product using the finished product as an add-on. Kinda good news for XBox owners. *Edit: Should this news goes to Neowin frontpage?* :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Osiris Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 Good, I think 3rd party software like thius, maybe not a divx player but other descent 3rd party software will be great for the xbox. Will certainly open the market to some new lil apps on consoles I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underscorebios Posted June 12, 2002 Share Posted June 12, 2002 yup and linux for the box is in development but it might still be a while before it pops up though, but since drivers allready exist for most of it's hardware it shoudn't be THAT hard (not that i could do it myself lol). On a sidenote drivers and mods for the xbox pads to use them in your pc allready exist to and the future is looking brighter and brighter for xbox gamers ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
