Hello World! Hacked homebrew on 360 - Xbox 360 Fanboy

Hello World! Hacked homebrew on 360 - Xbox 360 Fanboy

Check the comments. There's some harsh words against "modders" which is mistakenly being interchanged with "homebrewers". If anyone needs clarification, "modder" means someone who modifies. Soft Mods are software modifications (map edits, weapon edits, etc.), while Hard Mods are hardware modifications (such as modchips). A homebrewer writes code themselves (not just modify it). The DS and PSP have plenty of awesome homebrew apps, such as remote desktopping or custom media players.

I'm not trying to insinuate that modders are bad, but they usually end up ruining the fun everyone else, whether it be piracy or software hacking/modding. Don't hate on someone who hard mods to enable homebrew, but rather hate on those who go online and cheat. There is a big disparity there.

In any case, it's good to see a little progress on the 360 homebrew front. The machine is plenty capable of more apps than MS will provide.
