A fellow forum member recently decided they would stop hosting their repo of Xbox apps/homebrew software, I was given the opprtunity to clone the repo and will now host it myself. The link is below. Original Xbox Repo Although this is a fairly large collection of OG Xbox software past and present it may not be fully complete/upto date. I am unaware exactly when the last time @RetroEmulationNation updated it. So, if any of you have any other apps/software etc that you notice are missin from the repo them please forward them to me via pm and I will get them added. Credit will be given to anyone who contributies anything. I will host on my onedrive for the foreseeable future and eventually will push the whole lot over to archive.org. Thanks @RetroEmulationNation for all your work in putting this together. It is very much appreciated.

Does anyone know where I can get Spear of Destiny 1 and 2? I actually own the original Floppy disks for this game which I've backed up to hard drive so I don't need the WADs just the homebrew port to run them. An old favourite game of mine. Thanks in advance.

I ported my Dreamcast game Matterrun, written in 2016-2017, to the original Xbox. If anyone is interested in trying it out, you can grab it at http://atari.vg-network.com/fuseki No CD image, FTP only. Here's a video of the game running on the Dreamcast while it was still in development, just a few days from release. It plays the same on the Xbox:

I'm going through and updating old synopsis for every homebrew and have a few questions. I'll publish them here once finished. Developer/Publisher links are often outdated and the site is no longer, xbox-scene.com, for example. Should I include the outdated link for nostalgia purposes, or update them with working links, if they exist? -aftershock.xbox-scene.com (Should I change this to xbox-scene.info, or xboxscene.org? Or keep the original and add xbox-scene.info/xboxscene.org beside it? If I can't find who ported a game, do I include the developer/publisher of the original game, or just put Homebrew? There are lots of X's in most of these names, should I remove them so it looks cleaner on the dash? AmphetamineX, xArtShot, BarrageX, Battle Pong X, etc. I can keep the actual names in the description screen, but keep it clean while scrolling. Does anyone know anything about the OpenBOR games? I see multiple names of each, wondering which one is correct: -CNSV, Code Name Sailor V, or Sailor V? -Sailor Moon, or Pretty Soldier Sailor Moon? -Rhythm of Destruction-BORR2-Blue, or Rhythm of Destruction-Beats of Rage Remix 2-Blue? -Vampire Rage, Vampires Rage, Vampires Rage-Hide, or Vampires Rage-Alteration? (Are Hide and Alteration the same game?) -Tomb Raider, or Tomb Raider (OpenLara). Should I keep OpenLara in the name, or just Tomb Raider? -Out of This World, Another World. This is named differently for each region, do I keep them both? -Star Wars AfterShock, or Star Wars: A New Hope For Homebrew? AfterShock Pool SX, or AfterShock Pool SX: Lantus Birthday Release? Super Mario War: Halloween, I've found multiple people that helped make it, General Guy, Link901, KingPepe, MC Jimmy, Mr Mister, Tanuki, XS197, Asgardreid, Gadouken, LKA, Jjames19119. Do I include them all in the description window, or does someone know if one or two were the lead? Is there a list of Homebrew that are online enabled. I've found two so far, xConnect4 v1.1 and Quake III: Arena. xLime is System Link as well. When a game states that it's a clone of an original, do I label it as a Port or Homebrew? Are Duke Nukem 3D and Atomic the same game? If not does anyone have a link to Atomic? The following are known to exist, if anyone has a link they can pm me... -Dead Pygmies/Pigmies (Is Dead Babies the same game?) -Double Dragon Returns (I have every other variant) -Golden Axe Remake 2 (I have v1) -Heroes Snakes_V1 -MegaMan Extreme Legend (I have v2) -Primal Rage -Super Mario Brawl -SuperMonkeyBallDX Note: If you've ported or made an Xbox homebrew, and I haven't messaged you, please contact me. I'm trying to get in contact with XPort, A600, ShiZNO, and Mr.Q!, if anyone knows them. Thanks.

Hello, it's me again, now bringing the port of Sonic CD to the Original Xbox. For it to work, you need to place the game assets in the same folder as the .xbe. There is more information on the github page. The next Retro Engine ports (v4 and v5) should take a little longer to come out, as I need to rest a little and focus on other points in my personal life, but I promise it won't take long to return with the ports. https://github.com/danielgpinheiro/RSDKv3-xbox

When I thought about the idea of starting ports for the Original Xbox, I had (and still have) the desire to port the decompilation of Sonic Mania (RSDKv5), but I saw that this would require an experience in ports that I don't have (yet). So I decided to go in baby steps, to gain experience, so I studied and made my first port for the Xbox, Celeste Classic (https://github.com/danielgpinheiro/ccleste-xbox) After this port done, where I learned a lot, I'm starting a series of Retro Engine ports, which will start from version 1 (which runs Sonic Nexus), next version 3 (Sonic CD 2011), version 4 (Sonic 1 and 2 2013), and version 5 (which runs Sonic Mania). The first port of this series is complete, which is the RSDKv1 for the Xbox, which runs the Sonic Nexus fan game. Who is interested, the link to the repository: https://github.com/danielgpinheiro/RSDKv1-xbox

I just finished my Xbox port of Celeste Classic so thought I would share. This is my first Original Xbox port, so it's not the best port, and it can have problems. https://github.com/danielgpinheiro/ccleste-xbox

whiel i stated in my introduction post i had a Modded OG from the late 2000's to just about 2 years ago, i kinda kept to a handful of emulators (didnt wind up updating much)and played a few HDD Ready games. used it up till i got a RaspberryPi 3 for a Media Center. I Just recently snagged another OGXbox and upgraded it's HDD, i'm blind pretty much to what's changed in the intervening years. whats the best way to approach Emulation now? has there been any decent Homebrew games? outside Youtube, has any other Media service been restored? (Netflix/Plex) (i've got a nice Huge CRT TV to set this Xbox up with..)

Looking for the homebrew Artwork pack. Someone all ready posted it here... but the link is dead now. Any one can help me ?

Hey guys, it seems that a few of you were looking for this, @KaosEngineer sort of set me a challenge to find it... So a couple of hours or so later.... here it is Link: Mad Dog McRee Xbox Homebrew Port by Jago138 Credit goes to jago138 the original creator Let me know if it works as i have not had time to test it yet but the files all look good to me

What's the best homebrew games you can get for the system?

I downloaded Prince of Persia 2 from the massive google drive link on this site. It plays the intro but when it gets here it freezes, when I push any button. I tried to find another rom to see if this one was bad, but I don't see it listed anywhere online, when I look for a list of XBOX Homebrew games.. Has anyone here gotten this game to work? Thanks

Ok, when I start to load POP 2 I get this error. Where are the checkpoints saved? maybe I am missing the file? Any suggestions

Hi, I search since very long time an homebrew game named Mad Dog McCree. It was developped by "jago138" for "gueux forums" (french site). More informations here : Gueux and 1emulation Thanks for your help !
