What games are played online on the XBox OG nowadays?
OG Xbox Live is dead
Which is a shame because Mechassault was insane
>>333525937
Well, there are workarounds to play online.
halo 2
Can you play pcsx2 online btw? Since nearly every fag nowadays can run it relatively fine
>>333526112
too bad that takes too much work
>>333527583
I think this work is worth to play online.
Why was the early 2000s so fucking silly? I used to think that dashboard looked cool as fuck and that he little voices or whatever were awesome. Now I realise it was just cringy as fuck.

Shit dude, I think you might have missed the sale by two years.
>>333529212
Why didn't you mod your Xbox already?
>>333529414
My OG Xbox died 2 months after the 360 launched. It got thrown out.
>>333525854
Unless you specifically set something up with your friends, nobody plays online. XQEMU is your only hope.
>>333529584
Oh, sorry.

And Xbox costs $20
The USB adapter you need to load the save file onto your system costs $8
Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell costs $5
An IDE HDD (if you really, really want to) costs $30 - $70 tops
Removing the capacitor that kills the OG Xbox requires you to open the system (Hey, you'll be doing that anyways) and just snap it off the board with your fingers.
Come join us, anon.
>>333525854
none because it was killed almost exactly 6 years ago (holy fuck). halo 2 had like 15,000 concurrent players when it went offline. bravo microshaft.
>>333529970
>Removing the capacitor that kills the OG Xbox requires you to open the system
Bumping this in home of saving more Xboxes.
I wish my modded xbox didn't die, so much shit on there I'd like to play again, I put a 200 gig HD in it.
I think the power supply took a shit and died and I hear they're difficult to replace in this specific model
>>333530224
No, it was probably the clock capacitor that did it in. Some people will try to say it was the power supply, but it's almost always the clock capacitor.
>>333529212
>not keeping all your old games
Come on bruh.
the best thing you can do for your xbox is to
a) remove the clock capacitor (every model except the latest ones)
b) replace the hard drive (you will be cloning the old one and can keep it as a backup)
c) installing and running your games off the hard drive so as to lengthen the life of your disc drive (you can even ftp games from your computer to your xbox and you can install a sata hard drive with the right sata to ide adapter)
>>333529202
Shit taste on this level should be a bannable offense.
>>333530361
Nigguh I was 14, I needed the cash for muh 360
>>333530456
Only cucks have a waifu who hates them.
>>333530470
Just rebuy an Xbox then. System is cheap as hell and the majority of the games for it are incredibly cheap as well.
Most of my Xbox games I payed 2 to 6 bucks for.
>>333530317
It doesn't power on at all tho, would the clock capacitor do that? Are they easy to replace if I get a different xbox? Or can I just take it out?
>>333530697
if you just take it out it's fine. you will get the clock prompt every time you start it though. maybe you won't if it boots to custom firmware though.
>>333530437
ok, I'm just going to remove it then, everything else I got on that list
What games would you guys recommend?
I still have physical copies of Conker, Halo, Halo 2, Return of the King, MvC2, and Metal Slug 3.
>>333530791
yeah, I got all that custom shit, i forget what it's called it's been so long
>>333530697
The capacitor oozes acid all over the motherboard, it could very well result in the console refusing to power on.
>>333530437
>installing and running your games off the hard drive so as to lengthen the life of your disc drive
This is a moot point because once you get your hacked Dash on there, you'll never need it again.
Also, do you have any recommendations for an IDE to SATA board? The IDE HDD in my PS2 is dead, and I'd rather not play the 10+ year old HDD lottery again.
>>333530697
>It doesn't power on at all tho, would the clock capacitor do that?
Yeah, because that little asshole leaks it's capacitor goo everywhere and fries the board. You gotta remove it BEFORE it kills the Xbox, because once it's happened, it's too late.
>>333530791
>you will get the clock prompt every time you start it though. maybe you won't if it boots to custom firmware though.
At the very least, UnleashX (the only dash worth using at this point) keeps track of the time just fine without the capacitor.
>>333529970
>And Xbox costs $20
xbox on average goes for $50, you're lucky if you find it cheaper
>>333531028
I don't see any ooze on the board, but I haven't identified the capacitor yet
>>333530361
I always forget that Blood Money was on the Xbox and PS2.
>>333529970
Need 2 GO USB and that's not easy to find dude.
>>333531285
Just google, I'm sure you can find a video/guide to help you identify it.
>>333530802
one more thing i know of that's easy to do is to change the ide cable to an 80 wire one. this will increase the data rate by like 20%. it's not hugely important though.
>>333531403
Ebay it m8, they're not hard to find.
>>333530456
Want to be banned on /v/ asukafag?
I really need to dig the old modded Xbox out again and play some Otogi.
>>333529970
which capacitor is it that needs to be removed and why? i've got my modded xbox sitting next to me but i haven't used it in like 3-4 years.

if you want something crazy try and get steel battalion, game is hard as hell but the crazy controller it uses really makes it.

Welp, placed an offer for an OG Xbox and 34 games
>>333529970
>Removing the capacitor that kills the OG Xbox requires you to open the system
You can't do that for the 1.6's, though.
>>333531626
>which capacitor is it that needs to be removed
The capacitor responsible for maintaining the clock
>And why
All Xboxes except the final 1.6 model have really shitty clock capacitors in them. Not only do they die young, they leak elecrolytic fluid onto the motherboard which can cause major damage over time.
>>333531745
Most of that is garbage, sadly
>>333531832
when did the 1.6 model go into production? the console i have is from 2004/2005
>>333530906
Whacked!
Jet Set Radio Future
Project Gotham Racing
Return to Castle Wolfenstein
>>333531838
Out of the 34 there, I would happily replay 11, plus the game at the top of my list is in there. CoD 2: Big Red One. Means I don't have to buy it separately.
>>333531968
http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=367210&seqNum=2
If you've got a 1.6 the system won't boot without a clock (or so I've heard), but that's fine because they don't leak.
>>333531838
>most american games are garbage
the sky is blue
>>333532094
wow mine is actually from 2005, i didn't think i'd gotten this one that close to the 360's release. guess i'm okay then.
>>333531745
>those shits at gamestop that put the stickers directly on the box art
>>333531838
looks fine. at least it's not 50% sports games.
>Tfw waiting for a kit to disassemble my OG Xbox in order to lift the curse of the capacitor
>Tfw it may already be too late
It's one of the oldest models ;-;
>>333532446
I have a launch model, and I removed my capacitor only under a year ago. You'll be fine
>>333531745
>that dvd remote
man thats giving me a nostalgia boner
even if it's eaten through a trace, you may be able to repair it.

You could just buy the torx screwdrivers needed much cheaper at a local hardware store than by buying a kit, but doesn't matter all to much in the end.
I softmodded my Xbox last year but haven't taken the compacitor out yet. I still play JSRF to completion every year on it rather than my 360 because of the frame drops.
>>333532056
>Whacked!

Remember kids, Ninja Gaiden Black is the best version because Sigma for the PS3 tones the difficulty down and is a shit port in general.
>>333533345
>>333533662
that xbox had a rough life.
>>333533662

>>333533662
is that under the disc drive?

Could you elaborate?
>>333533864
http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/digitalfoundry-ninjagaiden2-faceoff-article
>>333533864
He's wrong on the shit port. Sigma 1 is a fine port on PS3. It's just lacks the challenge of Black.
Sigma doesn't require an install but I'd definitely recommend forcing it. Otherwise the load times are unbearable.

2006-2009 shit terrible iPhone bieber Hannah montana garbage
>>333534526
thank you
atleast someone gets it
>>333534526
I don't think you're in the right thread
>>333533662
Mine looks different, I think I have a 1.6 according to this reference table
http://www.informit.com/articles/article.aspx?p=367210&seqNum=2
I have an excalibur chip and the serial number match to the 1.6
so maybe it's not the clock capacitor?
>>333535153
I think you're safe anon.
>>333535153
Then that makes even less sense because the 1.6 models are the models with the good PSU's that don't just up and quit.
Your box might just be cursed
>>333535260
>>333535273
Well, it doesn't power on so there's something fucky with it. Fucking thing sucks
>>333531832
>they leak elecrolytic fluid onto the motherboard which can cause major damage over time.
this happened me after playing 16 hours straight. After a month I turned the Xbox on and it worked again.
>>333530906
THPS2X
>>333533478
Forza 1 is still fucking ahead of it's time. Car Clubs in that was dropped from FM2/3/4/5/6/... and haven't been back. Drive Club was apparently gonna take that concept and run with it, but not the same thing.

Does anyone want to talk the about ambient noises? Why can't newer consoles do things like this? It's all bland with Microsoft One. PS4 is more angelic, I like that
you can play any of the system link games online through xlink kai.
I mod Xbox's and sell them. Here is mine with a 500GB HDD with about 200 games.

>>333538470
For parts or labor? Getting a 500 HD seems like it'd be way cheaper now along with shipping it out. What do you do? Softmod, unlock the drive and go for it?
>>333537291
>it will never be 2005 again

The thread is about the OG xbox, a staple of early 2000s culture
>>333537886
I've never played that game. I must get it for my collection.
>>333538213
Only played the second. Been looking for the first.
I fuckinglikemy original xbox. I need a larger collection of unpirated games for it though. Will be picking up >>333538213 and NGB soon
>>333539426
the first mercenaries was so much better than the second one. i wish they would make another good one.
for your collection you need is Freedom Fighters and Splinter Cell 2 + 3
Anyone else play this gem?
>>333537289
I don't like the PS4 ambience myself. Plus they don't do the game start jingles anymore, they even removed the PlayStation 3 one once the slim models started coming out
>>333538603
Actually it is still expensive, that shit goes for more than I want to pay on ebay. I actually use 320GB drives cause they are a bit cheaper, it's bullshit how much people charge for old tech. The whole process takes over 20 hours because the games transfer so damn slow.
>>333538651
I use IDE drives so there is no need for an adapter, but a good one is the SABRENT SBT-STDB. I too have gathered quite the collection of OG Xbox games after buying lots after lots over the years.
>>333539956I played part of Freedom Fighters on Gamecube and didn't like it

>>333540532
Hmmmm... I've been meaning to upgrade my drive. But I never have opened my X-box up. Mostly because it's a 1.6 and the whole unlocking the drive resigning shit confused me in the softmod process. I'm wondering if it's even worth it given how old the system is now. If the IDE's are still shit expensive I dunno.
>>333533038

It's the way of the Sega
Hell, every port of Sonic Adventure and Sonic Adventure 2 are ports of the GameCube version, even though the Dreamcast version had better lighting and effects
>>333538213
Good graphics, shit gameplay.
Did anyone play Morrowind on the OG Xbox? It was actually an extremely decent port. The GoTY edition is pretty expensive now too.
>>333527295
Just private servers these days. Resident evil and Openspy stuff.
>>333543003
I had 3. Wish i had saved the cash.

>>333543249
you can actually play modded morrowind on a hacked xbox. don't run too well though.
>>333526112
Only on games with system link
And all you ever get are Halo 2 matches with spics and their modded consoles
>Ctrl+F Phantom Dust
>Phrase not found
Depressing. Phantom dust was an amazing game far ahead of its time.
Too bad the only sequel it MIGHT get is some butchered DLC thing that seems to be in development hell.
Suffering.
>>333543896
I still love how Microsoft announced it thinking that it was a beloved system seller that everyone knew, and we would be so grateful and hype for a sequel, but the overwhelming consensus was "What the fuck is Phantom Dust?"
Man, the original Xbox gave off such a creepy aesthetic and vibe. It was so fucking cool.
>>333543068
Yeah, it was just kinda weird.
He also bought an original GBA and an old IBM laptop.
>>333543249
Thats how I beat it and its just not the same on pc...
>>333543249
Yea. That's actually how I played Morrowind. I didn't own the PC version until some years later.
>>333544248
It's got a hard core niche following, myself included, but even I realize it sold for shit. Hell, microsoft didn't even want to bring it over from japan, despite it being fully translated. So another publisher snapped it up and sold it for like 20 bucks or something on release.
Fucking arena based, destructible environment, online pvp with 300 unique skills and moves you build into TTG like decks.
I want it back.
>>333544456
I still remember trying to dance around that one guard in the tower at Balmora to steal the Sword of White Woe without being seen. That was tough.
anyone that's put a sata drive into their modded xbox got any knowledge they could bestow for picking an adapter? not entirely sure what my options are and the few resources i came up with didn't give me much faith in any of them.
>>333543249
Istill play itsometimes.
What can I say? It's full vanilla Morrowind. I think it had some minor UI or sound changes that made it comfier. Like when you're scrolling through NPC text it made a sound that is not present on the PC version.
>>333544328
man that's fucking cool, my dad refuses to use a computer, i'm not sure why exactly

Spam the Flying Swallow. You can beat Very Hard/Master Ninja in vanilla Ninja Gaiden with just that move. Black is when they introduced the prevent people from Flying Swallowing to death counters.
(And Black is when they introduced the broken as fuck Interception move that they quickly dropped in an X-box Live update IIRC)

Jokes on Tecmo, my daddy never let me get XBL because he was afraid of people trying to diddle me
>>333544248
Anyone that owned an OG X-box loved Phantom Dust. And if they say different they should kill themselves.
MS has done the series dirty since Day 1. They planned to publish it in America and then got cold feet to where Majestco published it. IIRC the story goes that MS paid for the translation and backed out in the eleventh hour to where Majestco paid to publish/print the discs.
The "remake" shit is just the top of the shit cake that MS has done in regards to their game studios abroad.
>>333546726
yes give me your email.
>>333546741
No, you misunderstand. One of the DLC packs (which were FREE. *mind blown at console DLC being free like PC of old*) introduced a counter-move that broke the game. The next one "Hurricane Pack 2" didn't have that move.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pdN3I1lMn0
Sadly, if you have it/HP1 you have to make a new save somewhere from the first save point because 1) you can't make a new game save with it if you beat it and 2) X-box Live is gone.
>>333525854

Yes, such good memories from that game. How come its expensive nowadays? traded that game after i finished it several times.
