Gonna be annoyed if we somehow focus so much on this compared to 360 that we get working persistent softmods for xbox one before my beloved 360.

Either way, GG to the people who can use this to crack open that machine and really figure out the internals. Or create cool homebrew or whatever else people decide to do in the future, assuming this goes somewhere.

What this means is clean room reverse engineering can happen on the console’s software . So custom firmware and other tools are now possible (without relying on data leaks from hackers).

This is still probably years from now, but exciting to see.
