I just bought a used xbox with intent of modding it, but the box did not come with anything. so i will be needing a few things to make it functional. i want to buy:

any flash drive known to be usable to the xbox. Check the list

ANY xbox games, tell me what you have

post if you have anything listed you would be willing to sell, or anything you think i may be interested in. this thing's gonna be a linux beast

You would be better off getting your stuff off ebay or another online retailer. Your needs seem too specific. Plus the prices of shipping would add up, and I think you would end up paying much more then you need to.

how is "pretty much anything" xbox related too specific? or "ANY xbox games, tell me what you have"? there have to be plenty of people that have an xbox game lying around they don't want. after all, it was #2 in the console wars.

EDIT
just broadened the list EVEN MORE by finally finding the list of compatible usb drives

xbox a/v cable, preferrably composite

The price of shipping would cancel out the value.

Quote:

torx screwdrivers, t10 and t20

Same as above

Quote:

modchip- tell me what you have

What type? I don't know much about modchips, but there must be hundreds.

Quote:

any flash drive known to be usable to the xbox. Check the list

The chances of someone having any of those here seem pretty slim.

Quote:

controller extension cables

Do you mean the little removable thing at the end? Or something that extends it a few feet? Again, shipping wouldn't be worth it.

Quote:

Possibly a xbox power cable, i may have a compatible one

Shipping...again.

For being too specific, I'm not really sure about what I was talking about then.

Either way, most parts here would be best bought at a local retailer.

Oh and about being No. 2 in the console wars...that doesn't mean people are ready to throw away games. Numbers in this case don't mean anything-if people want an xbox, they aren't going to go out and buy whatever is # 1 and sell the xbox.

people are likely to be selling their stuff because the xbox 360 is out. new console, out with the old, in with the new. as for the modchips, anything for the xbox. there are more like 20, any of which i would have been willing to buy. i say that as past tense because i decided to do the free method and tsop flash instead. i see your point with the shipping, and bought an av cable for $10 at best buy and plan on getting an extension cable with gift cards i was not gonna use. as for the flash drives, there 125 different ones, which i think is a pretty good amount. i will revise the list later with what is unfeasable.

I agree with you on that point. I'm doing so my self infact.

But I thought you were referring to the previous consoles, Xbox, PS2, and Gamecube.
