I have an older XBOX just lying around. I was going to sell it since I have a 360. Would it be worth holding on to due to the great homebrew capabilities?Quote:

If you don't beleive me, go to the compatiblity thread for pspvba, you will not find anyone posting settings for anything BUT commercial roms.

Which is the most important news to get out to the public :p
Damn, just think about it, look i have downloaded manymovies and psp games using warez and peer to peer but i dont care i'm not buying these expensive games and movies there not worth it and i dont need to go anywhere i can just sit here and think hmm what game should i download...the hombrew will never be able to shut down maybe this site or another but never the whole hombrew scene i mean torrents are still online and peer to peer is still online take it like this how will you get caught??

Voltron,if you can,softmod that xbox.It's not that hard provided your dashboard and kernal haven't been updated.I have a softmodded xbox and was planning on building a supercomputer cluster out of several of them.That could have alot of usefulness:)I really want to also use it for emulators but as you can see from this thread it somewhat difficult to find legal software for it:(But if you get into the xbox thing pm me sometime.Also after I softmodded mine I put linux on it for free,unlike sony's crap $200 linux kit.Although I can't say much bad about sony's kit I do believe it led to psp homebrew.

We at Dcemu DO NOT support commercial software piracy. We do not condone it. We do not encourage it. We make Homebrew, Games, apps, and emulators, Now picture an emulator like it where a tool. just a common tool you would find in your garage somewhere. Now This tool could be used to do some serious damage if it where used improperly or illegally in a vandalism act. But, Does one blame the tool makers for what (said Vandal) does with that tool? No. one blames the Vandal and his actions that brought about the illegal activity, This is how the law works as well. We at Dcemu Do not support software piracy, period-point blank, there's no clearer way to say it. However we can not and will not and don't really care to try to police what you do own your own time in your own homes, Because its your own business. period. The thing is. One can look for reasons to claim that dcemu does support software piracy, and one will find none. in those rare instances that something has slipped through the cracks it will be taken care of as soon as it is discovered. This rule about warez, no matter how much people wish it where different, WILL NOT CHANGE. The fact is that the warez rule that dcemu enforces, if for the protection of everyone, this entire scene, this network, its simply non negotiable non debatable. non transferable, non refundable, and non exchangeable, It is and will always be the case, Sorry guys, that's really all there is to it.
I don't mean to sound mean, Or anything,
Im just getting really sleepy. And people also need to understand, (ME) im just a guy who really really loves the scene. I would bleed for this scene. It has become on of my most cherished hobbies.:o
If you cut a man he bleeds. But if you cut shadow, he bleeds Dcemu..
I love the scene that much, And I just want to keep it safe. that's all there is to it,
G~night Guys:cool:
you can say this as much as you want, but that's not the point here. i quoted you talking about intentions as to why creators code emulators. it's not about justificating them.Quote:
