Xbox 360 security partially broken again

Hackers will never stop hacking the 360 until it's open for use to everyone, an ongoing cat-and-mouse game between Microsoft and the hackers. This time the hackers succeeded to downgrade the dashboard version. By downgrading the dashboard it is possible again to go back to the exploitable dashboard that got fixed last February.

"the 360 core security is still in place"

"the xbox 360 hackers still have a long way to go..."

WafflesID6880d ago

Uhm, Every console in history has been hacked. Guess you should stick to Tiger LCD games.

sanderFVCKINcohen6880d ago

its better if you wait for the Elite with the Falcon chip. My brother has a 360 but im waiting for the Elite.

gta_cb6879d ago

the word broken and 360 are synonymous.

"The Xbox 360, The Ford Pinto of game consoles"

gamehendge6880d ago

gawd the 360 is such a joke. and to think they have yet to even turn a profit on it. if MS didn't have deep pockets this thing would of been discontinued some time ago.

FordGTGuy6880d ago (Edited 6880d ago )

it took hackers less then a day to hack the PS3. It took over 6 months for hackers to even scratch the surface of the Xbox 360 and they have still yet to hack the firmware.

@doshey

What security problem? All the hackers have been banned and there hasn't been really any hacker breakthroughs.

Mario186880d ago

People fight over the dumbest things...

doshey6880d ago

and the last time i checked sony does not wait 6 or how ever many months to fix a security problem

WafflesID6880d ago

and last checked there is no security problem with the 360. Even when they get this working there is no way you can use this on XBOX live. so what does it matter? Let them hack away. As long as it stays off of online play (which is WHY we pay $50 a year) then who cares.

Apparently the Sony fanboys because it gives them ammunition in some way.

WilliamRLBaker6880d ago

they just never fix it, they dont wait they just never fix it.

Ps2's online was hopelessly broken and cheater filled you could cheat in any game with a gameshark or action replay or modchip, and they never EVER banned any one, I had over 30 people i reported to sony via emails, rpeorting services! hell I even sat in a game of socom 3 while a guy cheated, and was on the phone with sony online customer reps...and those guys never got banned.

Lets hope to god this time on the ps3 they actually do something about it.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

DarXyde65d ago

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy66d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

Pixels in the Blood: The Journey of Rob Hewson

The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
