Title: boXcade - XBox Arcade Project
Post by: djohng on December 16, 2003, 11:12:27 pm: ;D
I just spent some time updating my website with the latest information on my boXcade project (XBox in an Arcade Cabinet). The real reason for doing this is to explain to everyone that it's very possible with a little engineering and know-how to use an XBox instead of a PC.

The website isn't as "crisp" as I would like it, but it gets the point across.

I'm still working on more pics of the cabinet and testing frame rates with the XBox emulators. (A few people have asked questions, like does "x or y game work..etc."

BTW; if anyone wants the graphics/menu program or further details on "how to do -something-etc." please email me.

-Happy Holidays!
-Regards

Quick question, why does the banner on your site appear to read,

Rectrocade?
