JAPAN: Xbox 360 250GB Hard Drive now Sold Seperately

JAPAN: Xbox 360 250GB Hard Drive now Sold Seperately
Published by: forahobby on Monday, February 01, 2010
Tagged: Gaming, Hardware, Xbox 360,

Microsoft is bumping up the size on the external hard drive accessory for the Xbox 360 to 250 GB. The downside? It’s only available in Japan…so far.

Normally only sold as a part of a bundle with a new Xbox 360 gaming console, interested gamers will have the option to buy the larger hard drive as a stand-alone accessory.

Set to be release in Japan on March 11, the new storage space key will cost ¥15,540 ($172.10)

Right now, the Xbox 360 Elite has the largest HDD capacity at 120 GB. All of that extra space would be great for downloading content (TV shows, movies, games, etc.) from the Xbox Live Marketplace, so maybe Microsoft should get cracking on shipping this accessory across the Pacific.

Iso2God v1.0.6 - ISO Convertor

Iso2God v1.0.6 - ISO Convertor
Published by: forahobby on Saturday, January 30, 2010
Tagged: Gaming, Homebrew, Xbox 360,

Iso2God is a tool which automatically converts Xbox 360 ISO images into Games on Demand containers ready to work on your homebrew enabled 360.

Following on from Team XeDev's release of NXE2GOD, here's a new PC app for converting Xbox 360 ISO images straight into Games on Demand containers. While it's possible to extract ISOs and run them off USB using replacement dashboards, it's nice to be able to run them as GODs as well. This functionality has only been available through the Xbox 360 SDK until now, so we thought it was about time a legal app was released to perform the same task.

Thanks go out to Team XeDev/Dstruktiv for NXE2GOD which helped us figure out what was needed for CON->GOD converts. Special thanks to rolly poly for testing and putting up with my endless ramblings about file formats!


Whats New/Fixed v1.0.6
+ New GDF/XDVDFS code to improve stability and prepare for removing padding sectors in v1.1 release.
+ Taskbar icon now flashes when a conversion finishes
~ Fix: Access Denied errors when trying to open ISO on network shares.
~ Fix: Crash when locating default.xex on certain ISOs
~ Fix: Proper checking of fields in the "Add ISO" GUI
~ Fix: Trying to use an Xbox1 ISO won't throw unhandled errors. (Xbox1 still not supported)
~ Fix: Lots of other minor stuff.

Whats New/Fixed v1.0.0
* ISO to Games on Demand container conversion
* Support for XSF and GDF/XDVDFS ISOs
* Automatically reads title info from ISO default.xex
* Multiple I2G conversions can be queued up to run
- Requires .NET Framework 2.0

Known Issues
Redundant sectors in the XDVDFS are not removed when creating the GOD container, so they will be bigger than NXE rips. This will be sorted in v1.1, be patient.
* PNG thumbnail is not extracted from the source ISO and used for the GOD container. This will be in v1.1.
* Xbox1 ISO->GOD is not supported.
* Title Name is not currently extracted from default.xex so you will need to enter that manually.
* No check is made on how much free disk space you have. Yes, still!
* Maybe some other bugs. The cake was a lie, but keep on reporting bugs and they'll get fixed :)

This application was developed completely seperately from the 360 SDK and in no way contains any source code, or other materials, created by or belonging to Microsoft.

Mass Effect 2 Face Database Launched

Mass Effect 2 Face Database Launched
Published by: forahobby on Saturday, January 30, 2010
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360,

After pouring so much time into crafting your Mass Effect 2 character's face, why not flaunt your work? A fan has launched a new database that allows players to share their creations.

When you design a face in the character creation screen, the toolset generates a unique code for it. Another player can then punch that code into their game and get the exact same face. The database is a collection of these codes uploaded by users. Most entries provide pictures and descriptions as well.

"This was done very quickly (took me about 3 hours) so I know it looks a bit ugly right now. I'll try and get one of my graphic designer friends to whip up a header or maybe even a full skin for it later this week," wrote the creator in a post on the official ME2 forums.

Considering that BioWare included the face code generation in the game, it's surprising they didn't make a similar resource. They've stickied the link to this fan database on their forums so it seems they're content to let gamers do it on their own.
