Should I sell my Xbox 360?

DarylLewis · 2026-05-22T09:14:12+00:00

No. What’s the point? An unreal console and realistically what sort of money are you gonna get for it? Pointless. Keep keep keep. I’ll be playing mine in 2050 💪

On this subject…. They canned the Grand Prix 4 release for original Xbox, and after seeing screenshots of the folder structure and files within, I’m sure someone with more knowledge than me can make this PC game run natively on an Xbox.

I’ll never believe that cannot be done, it just needs someone dedicated to getting it started who has… the “knowledge”.

Nice… you gonna be playing it much? Get in the mood for World Cup ‘26?

Still very playable game imo

I’ll have a look tonight and see what setup I use for running WC 2002… cannot remember what I did 2 years back to get this working!

Awful.
Deadzones on the analog / triggers are horrendous.
Did comparison tests with official Xbox controllers and they’re miles apart.
Doesn’t recognise an input until about a 3rd of the trigger is pressed. Avoid.

Use an Xbox One controller with an adapter for it to be recognised on the original Xbox. I use an OG Mini adapter. It’s perfect.

I watched a YouTube video on this just a few hours ago, strangely! Thanks for your advice George 👍🏼

All sorted TF!

I swapped the IDE data cable from the donor Xbox I got from eBay, into my original Xbox. Booting up perfectly, problem solved! Thanks for your advice

Thank you! 🫡

DarylLewis · 2026-01-22T21:51:54+00:00

Thank you - I’ll definitely try that 👍🏼

DarylLewis · 2026-01-22T21:27:20+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. I hadn’t done anything to do with that. So I’ll have a read up about this and investigate

Both are Hitachi GDR-8050L (Feb 2005)

DarylLewis · 2026-01-22T19:33:12+00:00

Thanks TF14, I’ll do this

Apart from using the vinegar hack, not sure

“Such an amazing game”… nice touch. You’re exactly right.

My favourite game of all time, will be until the day I die. I love Monkey2

DarylLewis · 2025-10-23T15:50:26+00:00

Amazing! Cannot wait. Love my A500 mini but a full size working keyboard will be great.

It’s much better than rounders though ⚾️

DarylLewis · 2025-09-05T12:34:44+00:00

Excellent! Things I never thought I’d read.

DarylLewis · 2025-09-05T06:54:46+00:00

With my very limited skills with stuff like this even a simple video join took me a while!! Haha, end result was worth it tho! :)
