Does XBOX Live on the original XBOX Still work

[YoshiM]

Time to necrobump this baby because the answer to the OP's query is YES!!!

Xbox Live on OG Xbox does lives again!

Insignia Live is now live in "closed" beta form, but they are currently still sending out invites. If you have a modded system, pretty easy to set it up. Unmodded you have options as well!

I got my code but haven’t had time to try it. I have to find an XBL headset!

Does voice work? I have a mangled headset somewhere.....

Biggest annoyance for me is I cannot get COD Finest Hour to run on my console since rebuilding the softmod using the Rocky5 one. It immediately crashes. I think the Star Wars Battlefronts are being added Monday!

I want to say that MVG said it does but I can’t confirm ATM as I don’t want to watch the video.


I did not get a chance to try this weekend. A couple of my kids wanted D&D and so that was my focus. Maybe tomorrow night if I can find a headset.

Voice DOES work, I heard some people on BFII the other night. I need another headset though, mine is mangled.

Ooooo....now I'm REALLY interested to hear folks taunt me as I crash to the ground flaming in "Crimson Skies".

I couldn't find a headset locally so I went to the 'Bay and ordered a supposed "new" one: Check it out

More than I would love to pay BUT if it truly is new and works, I'm not going to scoff too much.

It feels like a flippin' lifetime ago since I played the old XBL. I think I played a demo of it first on XBL and met a really cool guy that was helping folks get their feet wet with the game. All he wanted was to be air lifted to the top of a spire on some tower (it was a desert level with a small town/base). I was able to fly by it and he jumped out, landing on the spire in a comical balance act. There he stood and sniped at folks. For a long time no one thought to look up after their soldier got a long-distance brain removal procedure via bullet.

I barely used it back then. My PC games had better multiplayer and they were FREE.
