Xbox

cross-posted from: https://sh.itjust.works/post/53804920

It pains me to even post this here but apparently the xbox is "retro" now. oh boy.

Anyway - my problem. I thought for sure that OG xbox games would work on a 360s, as long as they were on the backward compatible list. well, my luck, none of the ones i got work and they're all on the list. I tried updating the 360 from a flash drive, it won't detect the update. I can't find a menu option to update. I would rather not connect it to my internet to update either if possible.

I tried reformatting the flash drive on the xbox itself then moving the update folder to it, that didn't work, neither did formatting on the pc first either. I cleared the cache of the xbox hard drive (it has an official M$ 250GB drive).

It is not modded in any way.

Anyone have a fix for the manual usb update? This is a glossy xbox 360 Slim, for reference.

Thought i should also post here!

I almost think I should just mod this thing, but is there any benefit to leaving it stock? I just wanna play OG xbox games man :(
