Re: Best place to find working PS3 controllers?

Depends on where you are in the world - As someone who lived in the UK and lives in Australia, I like CeX since they have a 6 month warranty on second hand goods.

eBay is pretty good thanks to their money back policy.

Re: What does it take to run a forum these days?

I'm with you on that one flatrute. Whilst I mainly use Discord as a means of communication these days - I do prefer a tech that's more open and preferable accessible from any platform (see: Retro PC's, etc).

Maybe I can just sit on IRC all day :P

Re: What was the very first console you have modded?

Mine would be doing the 007 Agent Under Fire exploit on my PS2 back in 2012.
I also had an OG XBox handed down to me by my cousins who had it modded with a copy Xecuter2 back in 2002/2003. I upgraded the BIOS on it a few weeks ago to allow Insignia to be used!

Re: help softmodding og xbox!!!!

Honestly, the Rocky5 method is so cheap and easy these days.
USB Drive, adapter cable and a copy of Splinter cell shouldn't cost you more than $20-30.

Re: What does it take to run a forum these days?

I haven't run a forum since about 2012, but from experience I always preferred running off dedicated or shared hosts VS your own hardware. With the amount of bots and bullshit out there I'd rather the onus be on the host to ensure my site is up and running. I constantly ran into having bots take ove...

Re: Obscenely Overpriced Vintage Electronics

I always wonder if anyone actually buys these? All I can think of is due to their use of "industrial" in the title, companies who's executive will sign off on just about anything are buying these.
