Fun fact: On the lower right corner there is the Xbox logo emitting waves to an imaginary surface below. The pattern is a watermark for the serial number of the device to be identified in case of leaked footage. Only during development of Xbox.
It's certainly not the real one[0], but looks a lot like the Winamp AVS/MilkDrop stuff. My Inspect Element -fu was however insufficient for getting a closer look.
Is there any chance the music section is legal? I would love to be able to put songs on my own pages, but I assumed it would be a legal issue? Is there a way to license songs at a reasonable price.
Best Xbox console. It had pretty good games. Sad they were unable to keep that momentum going and are basically nope’ing from the console business altogether now.
I was able pull together a Halo 3 LAN party last year, although the "consoles" were Linux PCs and the game was the MCC edition (60fps instead 30). Split-screen was resurrected via mods. I bought some Microsoft gamepad receiver to bring Xbox 360 original controllers under Linux. Some people insisted they get to play on the original gamepad (otherwise it was a mixed bag of PlayStation and newer Xbox/PC controllers).
I also realized that Halo 3 itself would have been old enough to drink with us!
I don't know if the Altair 8800 would count as my first home computer, as I was too young to really understand what it was and mostly just liked to play with the paper tape feed on the Teletype attached to it. By the time we got the PET 2001, I was old enough to actually use it as intended.
