Sunday, November 29th, 2009Here is the News right from the Team Blackbolt Forums themself’s
For over a week or so now, we’ve been testing Ellipsis in a closed beta program. With the help of testers we’ve been able to fix bugs, add much needed features we left out and also improve our designs and graphics. Due to the excellent response from the testers we’re confident we will be able to release Ellipsis to everyone Friday December 4th 2009.
Some time in the evening (UK Time) we will go live with what has been one of the most interesting projects we’ve worked on. So we hope you will join us then and enjoy what we’ve created. Before then you can look forward to a preview video by ActionCorp.TV, the guys who did the podcast preview for MC360, we’ll let you know when thats available. Just keep an eye on this site.

Last gasp for original Xbox?
Monday, September 17th, 2007When Microsoft introduced the Xbox 360 in November of 2005, it killed off the original Xbox, a decision that contrasted with Sony’s strategy to keep supporting the PlayStation 2 even as it threw most of its marketing muscle behind the new PlayStation 3.
That meant the Xbox fell quickly off the sales charts and video game makers stopped producing titles for the machine in order to focus on the Xbox 360. So it was a bit of a surprise to see the latest NPD data for video game sales for the month of August. It turns out that Electronic Arts figured there were still enough people playing the original Xbox to justify making a version of “Madden NFL 08” for it.
It looks like it was a smart move. According to NPD numbers provided by Microsoft, the Xbox version of “Madden” sold 122,000 copies, making it the 11th best-selling game for the month. That beat “Madden” for Nintendo’s Wii, which sold almost 116,000 copies.
Oh, and it looks like there are still a few big black-and-green boxes trickling out of warehouses: Microsoft sold no fewer than 80 Xboxes in August.

Monday, February 26th, 2007
>> SICKmods released a new version of their XERC IR-mod for Xbox1:
[QUOTE]
The latest update to the XERC family is now for sale – the XERC 2 XE. This version includes a diode onboard so you can directly connect the MS DVD Kit dongle to the XERC to share the same IR receiver.
SICKmods XERC 2 XE
If you are unfamiliar with the XERC, it is a small device which allows you to turn your Xbox on and off with your remote. It also allows you to eject and emulate long and short power presses, to enter different boot modes if you have a modchip installed. The MS DVD Kit dongle can be internally hardwired to share the same IR receiver as the XERC 2 XE.
The XERC can be configured to work with many different remotes, and you can change the button setup at any time without opening your Xbox. It also includes a bonus LED Fader feature on the status light. For more info on the XERC, and to view a video of it in action, visit http://xerc.sickmods.net/.
