Warning: Xtreme Boot Maker v0.5.4 Pulled

Warning: Xtreme Boot Maker v0.5.4 Pulled
Published by: forahobby on Tuesday, June 05, 2007
Tagged: Homebrew, Xbox 360,

Klutsh from x-projects.org has just released a very important message that all modders and homebrew guys should read.

Xtreme Boot Maker 0.5.4 has been dropped.
Stoner who took over from 0.5.3 has tried to take XBM in a direction that was never intended.
I did not realize that Stoner altered the Samtool executable (without permission) and released it for public use.
DO NOT USE XBM 0.5.4 it may destroy your 360's drive.

I apologize for this error in judgment on my part, from now I will be the sole developer of XBM, working in conjunction the Caster420 and the Xtreme firmware team, to bring you stable and tested applications.

Releases of XBM can be trusted from here, X-S and 360mods.net.
If you see mention of 360hax anywhere in any future release it was not done by X-Projects and should be treated with caution.

Microsoft chairman hints at motion control for Xbox 360

Microsoft chairman hints at motion control for Xbox 360
Published by: forahobby on Monday, June 04, 2007
Tagged: Homebrew, Xbox 360,

Microsoft chairman Bill Gates has offered further hints at the direction Microsoft's gaming division is taking, and if his comments at last week's All Things D conference are anything to go by, Gates wants to outdo Nintendo's Wii.

"Software is doing vision and so, you know, imagine a game machine where you're just going to pick up the bat and swing it or the tennis racket and swing it", he said.

A bit like Wii then, Bill? "No, that's not it. You can't pick up your tennis racket. And swing it." Oh, right.

Earlier this year Xbox boss Peter Moore hinted that Wii-like motion controls might be in the Xbox's future. "We have plans. This does not come as a surprise", he said.

Frankly, we're quite happy with our bog-standard 360 controllers as they are, but with these increasingly common comments considered, E3 could just be the place where we see Microsoft shake things up

Need for Speed ProStreet officially named

Need for Speed ProStreet officially named
Published by: forahobby on Monday, June 04, 2007
Tagged: Gaming, Xbox 360,

Claiming to take the successful driving franchise in a new direction, Need for Speed ProStreet has been officially named after rumours surfaced following last week’s release of EA’s trailer.

Street racing and head-to-head showdowns are the order of the day this time, along with an expected next-gen ‘photo-realistic’ graphical overhaul. Also new is the fact that alterations made in the Autosculpt mode, which alters the look of a gamer’s car, will now effect the performance as well as simply the aesthetic stylings.

Need for Speed ProStreet accelerates street racing culture by providing the ultimate stage for the pursuit of street racing supremacy,” the game’s executive producer Larry LaPierre stated. “This is a game about building the ultimate performance-tuned battle machine, taking it to multi-disciplinary showdowns all over the world and pitting your skills and reputation against the very best street racers.”

Need for Speed ProStreet will be out later this year on Xbox 360, PS3, PS2 and Wii.

(Removed #4 Motorstorm JPN Import)

The bold games are exclusive to that console.

PS3 Exclusives above 8/10: 5
Xbox 360 Exclusives above 8/10: 39

Xbox 360 has 7.8 times as many 8/10 games exclusive to their console. Also, NBA Street Homecourt and Tiger Woods PGA Tour 2007 are the only ports that rank higher on the PS3 and are above scores of 8/10.
Does this, for now, prove that Xbox 360 has better games than PS3 at this point? Also, will the PS3 be able to catch up and then keep up in the coming years? There's a long way to go, but for now, the claims that PS3 doesn't have many good games... is true.

Ratings taken from MetaCritic.com. To be in the top scores for each console, each game had to have at least 5 ratings from seperate sites.
