/vr/ - Retro Games

What's the difference in terms of available hacks between a hardmodded and a softmodded xbox? Can I plug in a new hdd without unscrewing the whole thing like the ps2?

The Xbox was everything the Dreamcast wanted to be but failed at, it even got the same Sega games but in higher quality.

It had:
>DVD player
>big controller but actually good
>powerful
>had DOA, Shenmue, Panzer Dragoon, Sega GT, Jet Set Radio, PSO etc
>actual local multiplayer games
>actual online service

How is the emulation scene on this on Linux? I am emulating PS2 on Linux and I'm very happy with the quality of that. Thoughts on this?

Also side question; installing an HDD on the physical OG Xbox that is modded. Is that possible? I have one at my parent's place and would like to have it available when I'm there but am worried the lazer and original HDD are going to cave on me soon as they are original.

Hey /vr/, I just got my mom to start playing games on my old Xbox and Im looking for recommendations. She has a chronic pain condition and cant play high stress games so Im looking for
>low stress, casual games
>has single player mode
>preferably not reliant on reaction times

So far, Shes enjoyed Tetris Worlds, so puzzle or adventure games would be preferable as well although anything will work.
