Ask anyone who has been to my house, this is a great modded xbox. He used it once. It is a perfect working first generation xbox with a Executor mod chip and a 200 gig hard drive. It comes with the original power cord, the “safer” replacement power cord, the original AV cables, the S-video AV cables, a official big microsoft controller, an official small microsoft controller, and the remote control/sensor attachment.
The system still plays original games no problem. The console has a switch installed to boot up into the original OS, if desired. It then has EvoX installed, which is the “hacked” OS. From here, you can load games, emulators, applications, ftp files to the console, etc… For example, it has around 15 xbox games on it, that run great, and faster then normal, since there is no CD load time. It also has emulators for NES, SNES, Sega, N64, and the Arcade (MAME). These include almost every game for those systems ever made. I also have Xbox Media Center, which is an all in one media player. This plays every media format out there, so you can run DivX, Xvid, quicktime, mpeg, etc… Included are many shows, including futurama, sopranos, seinfeld, etc…
Of course, since you can connect and FTP to this, you can add/remove whatever you want. Just download a game/rom/movie and put it up there, and if you dont like what I have, delete it.
This is about as good as it gets. Last year, I upgraded the power supply, so it will last forever. That is the only thing that goes bad in these first gen xbox consoles.
I want $250 for it. Probably wont find a better deal. The Xbox sells for ~ 100 on ebay, mod chip is 50, hard drive is at around 80 - 100 , plus the labor to have someone solder it in, plus the time to load all the software, and knowing that it actually works. Don’t be ripped off, this is the one to get.
