After a team of hackers admitted that their XBox360 hack was not really practical, another team has said that it is closer to a practical solution.
In hackerland getting a useable 360 hack is a bit like finding a cure for cancer. An outfit called Team Xecuter claims to have found a way to managed to write to the DVD drives firmware, without the need to de-solder the chip, flash, and replace it.
The group’s hack works by hooking up to your PC drive and flashing it over the S=ATA bus.
True you need a custom connector, because Vole uses a lot of proprietary stuff, but it is a step closer to the XBox360 being wide open, the group claims.
