Pay a little more and get a DMS 4 Pro SE, Crystal Chip 1.1, or Matrix Infinity. Hell, you can get a Ghost2 for $20 from consolesource.com. The G2 is superior to the Duo2GT in every way. It supports DVD-9 backups, and boots games with no swapping/resetting.

I don't have as much long term data on the G2 as I do the other three, but it's definitely a better buy than the Duo2GT. Consolesource has reliability issues over the last six months according to resellerratings.com, have a look for yourself:

Nope. Homebrew for the PS2 is nothing like the Xbox. ToxicOS is as close as you come to a dashboard, but it doesn't have all the features of an Xbox Dash. The media capabilities are limited, and the homebrew generally sucks. I have a modded Xbox and PS2, I don't play one anymore, can you guess which? :)

Yeah I rarely play Xbox games, I use it a media center primarily, and as an emulator. Recently played thorugh Zelda 2, now playing Super Mario 3 lol. It makes a terrific media center, XBMC is the greatest homebrew ever. The games aren't bad either, though I'm more of an RPG fan, and there's only a handful of quality Xbox RPG's. Ashame, it's a real powerful machine, console RPG's could've thrived if they had any support.

That's cool. I'm waiting on the 360 to be modded reliably, not half assed chips which simply inject firmware on the fly and firmware hacks. They work, but backing up Xbox 360 games is really difficult right now, two methods, neither is good. I've heard there could be a reliable chip by December (one that allows homebrew and backups), I've also heard it could be a lot longer. We'll have to wait and see. I agree with you, until the X360 is cracked, the original Xbox is better in almost every way, except for raw horse power.

Yeah I've heard the UP chip is starting to become pretty popular, must be nice loading isos off a stick with no loader. I think it might be set to blow up as the next big mod.
