Thanks for the replies! I didn’t get the scale before, it’s smaller than I thought - again, well done!


Respect, this is quite an achievement!
I got out of building models because I never figured out what to do with the results afterward… It was fun planning/building/painting stuff (I did warplanes mostly, integrated them into dioramas in the end) but once I was done they just took up space and became dust traps. Tried getting into Warhammer but never had enough interested friends to make it worthwhile…
So what I’m building up to is: What are you going to do with it now?


Thank you for taking the time to write that out - those are all good reasons to go for a hard mod. I’m intrigued now, I will most likely pick up another 360 locally on the cheap to tinker with and go the easier route of A Bad Avatar with my “main system” until then. Dream Theme does look amazing and just having the console customized and ready to go right after booting (instead of having to run an exploit etc. every time) is a huge plus. It will be glorious.


I’m currently looking into hacking my 360 - why did you go with RGH and not A Bad Avatar/Bad Update?


Depends on what you’re looking for. To me the 3000 has the best screen, the 1000 has pretty noticeable ghosting. The 1000 might a be better fit for your hands, the screen does not have “scanlines” and the colors are somewhat more accurate.
You can put a replacement into the 1000, but the colors aren’t as good…
The 3000 has more RAM so games load faster and the speakers are placed better.
I’d always go with a 3000, but that’s just personal preference and an argument can be made for each model, I guess (I’d stay away from the street though).


PSPs do Start without a battery (unlike PS Vitas), so there definitely seems to be something a miss. But if you want to hack your system later on, you’ll need a battery anyway (as far as I remember).
What is beneath it you ask? Why a house on the ground (that’s two more coasters), which is standing on four elephants - another, very very huge coaster. All this so we don’t have to worry about spilling our drinks over the giant turtle that carries it all.
Another option would be Thermal Grizzly’s Kryosheet. It is a thin graphene pad (conductive!) and supposedly lasts even longer and performs only slightly less good.
I recently installed one on my PS4 Pro and it’s working very well (the fan stays so quiet that I’m now noticing a frequency shifting coil whine which is driving me nuts - pretty sure it’s coming from the VRAM too so simply switching out the PSU won’t help… but whatever).
