Xbox 360 fall dashboard hack could lead to piracy
Ah yes, the much highly anticipated fall dashboard update that will bring us avatars and a new spiffy looking 3D interface has been leaked onto the Internet. I have to ask who in the world is leaking this stuff? I can only assume its all internal code as of right now making it virtually impossible for the public to get their hands on it.
The dashboard seems to have penetrated the usual places such as bittorrent seeds, modder and hacker sites. There are even some such as XHavok87 who claims to have hacked the dashboard update. We checked out XHavok87’s site and indeed we found videos on how to hack the update to be executed. There is no way for us to know the extent of the supposed hack.
Judging from the video the dashboard update seems to be an early beta version with bugs still present in the software such as font and feature issues. Doesn’t seem like a big deal right?
