Has anyone extracted the 360 emulator 'Frisson' or the original xbox emulator microsoft are using for backwards compatibility?

[momodora]

I've seen from the datamines that the internal name for microsofts 360 emulator is called Frisson, used to run 360 games on Series X systems.

Anyone working on removing it or using it to play non-approved games?

There's something like 1400 other games not available in the official backwards compatibility program, so it'd be cool to see what else the emulators can play.

AFTER the 360

Best bet for Xbox emulation is PC, just last year xemu exploded and now over 60% of games work. But of course you need a decent PC to play it.

To me it makes more sense to invest in a PC than an Xbox Series X because you get so much more and all Xbox exclusives are now on PC. For the price of an Xbox Series X you can get a decent computer although better ones will cost more.

He is asking about Xbox 360, not OG Xbox.

They might be hackable, but Microsoft opened up their systems to the consumer starting with the Xbone and continuing forward. Meaning that the ability to run homebrew and even emulators on the latest Xbox has been easily achievable without a single hack. I have to imagine that this move alone killed a huge portion of potential interest that there might have been in hacking the latest Xboxs. I think it doesn't help that there aren't nearly as many amazing exclusives for Microsoft's systems than Sony and Nintendo have, which probably makes their systems all the more attractive for full blown piracy over the Xbox.

that's over, right?
at least for ppl, who do not publish games on their dev-account

Yeah I thought the news was Dev mode is going to be disabled for anyone who isn't uploading to the xbox store.

The 'clarification' statement from microsoft didn't clarify anything. It just said if your account was disabled you could ask for it back. That doesn't answer whether or not people who don't upload to the store will/will not lose access to dev mode....

They said they will reenable them all, but that it will take some time and if you need your account back faster, you can contact them.

right but will they disable them again after 90 days if you don't upload a product to the store? that's the part that wasn't clear

He said that it was an accendent, that they got disabled in the first place, so they probably wont disable them again.

I gotta be honest I'm pretty skeptical of that, time will tell

I mean i'm sceptical about it being a mistake, but they probably won't disable them again in the near future, after they backpedaled that fast.

It probably wasn't a genuine 'mistake' but was a decision they quickly decided to backtrack on.
