New XBOX easter egg leaked after two decades

According to an interview between Kotaku and an anonymous Xbox dev, there is a hidden easter egg that hasn't been discovered for 20 years. The easter egg is similar to triggering the <<Eggsβox>> easter egg, which involves ripping a CD and naming it <<Eggsβox>>, after which a credits roll will play. The dev said that they wanted to avoid the same disappointment with the <<Eggsβox>> easter egg being found.

When we shipped [the Xbox], there was no real plan on how to leak [the ‘<<Eggsβox>>’ trick], but somebody on the team did an interview and hinted that there was something ‘cool’ in there,” the developer said. “It was a terrible way to do it. People went crazy thinking there was a free game, or something to that effect, stuffed away in the Dashboard/console. After a day or two he had to just leak the trigger due to all the speculation that was spinning out of control. Due to the way he leaked it, when it was ‘found,’ people were so disappointed.

The trick involves ripping a CD and naming the track Timmyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! (with the y being repeated 26 times). Afterward, going to the system info will show a hidden credits sequence for the Dashboard team.

Never make easter eggs too obscure and or hard to find. It makes the Easter Bunny upset when no one finds his spoiled rotten eggs for over 20 years.

this was probably added as a last minute thing, so stop crying that you didn't get a hidden game that you would've forgotten of in less than a week and just admire the fact that it even exists, I bet that 99% of you didn't even know who the devs where.
