lol, I'm really talking like 20 years in the future when we live in a post-apocalyptic world where I have the last surviving XBOX. For some reason I have this mindset that in like 3 years there will be no more retro systems and if I don't get it now, It'll be gone forever or ludicrously expensive. Is yours soft or hard modded? I took extra precautions to make sure I had the latest and greatest soft mod (not subject to clock loop), though there are a few touchy areas like accidentally deleting an important file. I'm also kinda worried about the Splinter Cell saves, what would happen if I ran the Linux profile again after installing? The thing I hate about this the most is that no one really knows much about this stuff, its all a bunch of sheep just passing on what someone else said, no one fully understands any of this enough to explain what everything really is or does, I think that's the part that really worries me: not fully knowing how this mod works. I'm also worried about my modded PSP because I didn't actually mod that myself (I still can't find a damn site that tells you how to make the recovery mode memory card that doesn't require a modded PSP at some point, and I know its possible) and I hear about people bricking stuff all the time. I just never have enough time to find out what I need to know anymore...
