w00t won a BBA on ebay (these things are hot property there), and saved me some pennies :lol:

So now all I need is PSO right? Any particular one better than the other for booting? I got a couple of DVDr with ISOs on so I've got something to get me started then, and it will be a doddle hooking it up to my router.

AFAIK all versions work the same, go for which ever you can get cheapest (PSO II for me ?19.99 second hand)

spudthedestroyer · **Posted:** Mon Jul 05, 2004 8:43 pm **Post subject:**

on ebay they sell 1 &2 for ?19.99 too.

I'll have to scout around i guess.

Come on Spud ?20 for the key to a hundred games? STOP BEING SO CHEAP!!! :mrgreen:

Spud, maybe you should wait a bit until Datel release their Max Drive Pro or Codejunkies bring out their crazy device....

the Codejunkies catalogue wrote:

MAX Media Player? is the cool and new way to transfer
and play movies, MP3 music, game saves and even retro
games on your GameCube?.
Use standard SD media cards (available separately) to transfer
your data between any PC and your GameCube? console.
With one 256MB SD card you can watch over 3 hours of DivX
movie footage. The supplied software makes it all so easy.
Play retro Genesis/Megadrive games with MAX Media
Player's? unique emulator function - direct from an SD card!
MAX Media Player? is also perfect for budding programmers,
allowing you to load and execute your own creations.
MAX Media Player? comes complete with an SD Media
Adaptor which fits into a GameCube? memory card slot.

Hopefully when those badboys get released we'll be able to load up Animal Crossing loader without PSO...

...maybe :wacky:

Grr and I thought it looked cool, then you have to point out that 256mb card size :evil:

Just looked on a French site and they reckon there is a modchip coming soon! See for yourself: http://www.gc-hack.fr.st/

Basic translation/explanation by me: Some guys called Oragi who made the first PS2 modchips have announced there modchip, which has been proved to people over webcam. all it does at the moment is bypass the copy-protection barcode, no isos boot yet.

NOTHING PROVED YET...

Yeah I saw this a little while ago posted here : http://www.maxconsole.com/?mode=comments&newsid=2386

Krug · **Posted:** Wed Jul 14, 2004 4:25 pm **Post subject:**

I edited my last post with a translation, but Maxconsole say it all anyway. Let's cross our fingers...

spudthedestroyer · **Posted:** Wed Jul 14, 2004 5:50 pm **Post subject:**

yeah but they are french... probably lying out there asses. :wacky:

See stories like that all the time, of of yet, all have been fake

Regardless I just need to get hold of phantasy star online ep1 and 2. If anyone see's it in a shop somewhere let me know.

Krug · **Posted:** Wed Jul 14, 2004 6:13 pm **Post subject:**

People seem pretty convinced on the various forums, apparently the guys were giving demonstrations over webcam and shit like that.

But yeah, I've seen some fake things too - the pirate discs in HK on Apple Media etc, but the funniest ones were these videos were some losers in crash helmets burnt the disc on the PC, took it to the GC and just loaded a game straight up! There were like 4 different versions from different people when it came out and people were going ape on the forums, but they were ripping them to pieces and spotting flaws straight away, but this time, people do seem quite convinced. We'll wait and see anyway...

...and are you still moaning about having to spend ?20 spud? How much do you think you are gonna get it for? Just get some scally kid to go and rob one for you if you want to get it cheaper :lol:

I paid ?25 for mine so at least you can take comfort in that :wink:

spudthedestroyer · **Posted:** Wed Jul 14, 2004 6:18 pm **Post subject:**

no where has it, at all. ebay goes up to ?40 which is rediculous.

Krug · **Posted:** Wed Jul 14, 2004 6:21 pm **Post subject:**

Amazon has it used for ?30, but I guess you want it cheaper :roll:

spudthedestroyer · **Posted:** Wed Jul 14, 2004 6:24 pm **Post subject:**

it didn't last time I checked! Great stuff

edit: its bloody computer exchange selling it too... they don't even have it stocked on their own homepage :roll:

spudthedestroyer · **Posted:** Wed Jul 14, 2004 10:22 pm **Post subject:**

is there anyway to manage the memory card too and from the pc using this PSO boot dealie?

I only have one card and don't want to buy another.

PC_Arcade · **Posted:** Thu Jul 15, 2004 8:42 am **Post subject:**

AFAIK there is a memory manger for the PC, not used it yet, but I remember downloading it :lol:

Krug · **Posted:** Thu Jul 15, 2004 5:28 pm **Post subject:**

You can definitely do it Spud, and you can even convert them between PAL and NTSC

So did you buy PSO?! :-o

spudthedestroyer · **Posted:** Sun Jul 18, 2004 9:59 pm **Post subject:**

Does anyone have a site with all these tool available for download. It's hard trying to track down a resources that lists and hosts the files. I mean, something that keeps you up to date with exactly what you can do with the gamecube, a proper scene site.

Would appreciate a list of the various softwares out there.

I got my bits and pieces from http://www.maxconsole.com, it's not as organised a "scene" as the Xbox though, the other place that you'll nned to bookmark is : http://gc-compat.webhop.net
