View Full Version : I.C.E Chip For Xbox 360 Sparks a Media Frenzy - Update
Upon browsing one of my personal favourite websites called <A href="http://www.gamesindustry.biz/content_page.php?aid=13937" target="_blank">Gamesinudstry.biz</a> I was a little bit shocked to see that my previous article on this supposed chip called <a href="http://www.maxconsole.net/?mode=news&newsid=5845" target="_blank">Fake I.C.E Chip for Xbox 360</a> inspired some mainstream attention for this fictional chip. They claim this chip to be a hoax as they pictures released are just industry standard components. However as the I.C.E team read my article, they asked me to edit the article and be a little less harsh...
<center><img src="http://www.maxconsole.net/content_img/icex360fakechip1.gif"></center></a>
<center><i>Those damn incompetent webmasters ey ? They accidentally uploaded the pictures of standard components and watermarked by mistake! Now they can kiss their jobs goodbye :-).</i></center></a>
So we got talking on an instant messenger and here is a summary of what they said :-
1) They have fired and replaced their webmaster, who was guilty of supposedly uploading those pictures to their website and who also decided to watermark - complelty out of his own initiative.
2) Their team consists supposedly of a strong colloboration of 12, including 3 engineers, marketeers and web related staff.
3) Infinity mods is an affiliate, hence they they are heavily plugged.
4) They have been in touch with one of largest Xbox chip manufacturers, let me re-iterate someone inquiring as to whether they are really fake or not does not add any means of credability to the team.
5) They have released a picture of their supposed OS, no offence guys but anyone can make a simple image in photoshop.
6) Whether what I say or anyone else says, the chip will be released within two weeks and samples will be available, they are just working on fixing security of the chip ;-).
7) They don't want to scam people at all, they are not taking pre orders or anything of the sort right now.
8) The hack was found by looking where no one else has thought to look!
9) I refused to retract on my article and as a result was referred to as a 'useless editor'.
It's up to you to make up your own minds on this one, but I say you'd have to be pretty darn insane to believe this.
5) They have released a picture of their supposed OS, no offence guys but anyone can make a simple image in photoshop.
And also one point , it can only boot backup, not homebrew and the modchip have an OS ===> find the error !
edit : if you don't understand , i mean that's a contradiction so the modchip is fake !

yep i was thinking the same thing
and there bios looks like a 10 second photoshop work of a 5 year old.
Why put so much effort in your modcip and include a butt ugly bios.
anyway this was a bad marketing idea of infinitymods to draw people to there site

Mebay its just the bios of the chip and not a replacement bios(just boots before the real bios das,like something on gamecube viper)
Erm.... something erm...

hmmm well for it to output to screen, it wud need to go through the 360, and for features such as update bios which was on the screenshot, it would need to access the internet or at least the network. All of this requires the 360s hardware. So if it worked it wud be homebrew. Unless they attach a mini ethernet port and a tv out im not seing how its possible :p

only time will tell, end of the day we gain nothing from calling the scammers, and also gain nothing from calling it real.
personally i dont belive its real, not for any other reason than the way they have marketed this, etc.
my whole opinion is based on the fact that these `samples` have been released to `unknowns` in the scene.
surely your first area would be to send them to someone connected with xbox-scene, not some obscure `back-o-the-woods` webshop, but like everyone else , i just hope and pray i`m wrong. ;)

I still don't trust them, till i get concreate evidence them that site is as good as a template with a nice bit of music on it. The so called custom os is put together into photoshop, program for the expert programmer, lol. A proper picture of there chip, a proper picture of the os working on the 360 work change my mind, This is still a big fat hoax to me.
THIS IS A HUNDRED PERCENT FAKE - I KNOW OK ?
They had a meeting with a potential affilate and bailed with an armful of excuses. They are full of crap and please do not give a bunch of pathetic idiots the pleasure of feeling that they are fooling you. From the day I saw this crap, I knew it was fake - we all have to get out of the world of make believe sometimes and into reality...
WAKE UP - It's FAKE!

remeber they (the so called ice team) are not taking any preorders at the moment?
but who is to say their reseller will do the same?
the best way to scam in this situation is to get the hype up for the fake modchip and makeup some fake reseller website and put them on your own "official reseller" page, now do some fake reviews and "bang" reseller start to take preorders and just wait and see the money to roll in....
see this happen all the time with counterfeit MEDs...but if it does happen this will be the first for the modchip scene.
by the way i guess we didn't have to wait for too long ...i just checked the website and now it has emails for preorders on their contact page
preorders at icemodchip.com ...man what a joke

01-09-2006, 04:26 PM
they stopped me believing wen they showed that dash or bios or wotever. Especially with the features on it. I mean update through network? you would need to write your own code to interface with the network card in the 360, then ur own code to use the controllers etc and the hypervisor wud probably detect this code neway. I cud seriosly have believed it, if they said right it boots backups, put an original in, let it boot the dvd will eject put ur backup in and ther u go it plays. But now ther talking about a bios screen or dash? i mean this was only possible on the orignal xbox because the bios was leaked.

mksoftware, where are you coming up with those pics, or are you demonstrating how easy it is to photoshop an "upcoming" modchip?
and divineo said this today....
We have now received the following confirmation from Divineo as follows: "The 360 chip is 99% a scam, we had booked tickets to go meet them, we were ready to make huge prepayment and more after we meet the guys at their office and see the working X-Box 360 with back-ups they 100% confirmed they had and it was no problem to show etc. Now at last second they cancelled, with some lame reason, those guys are scammers I really believe. They did the same to Xenium, backed off and changed completely what they said."
With that being said, it appears the RUMOR can finally be put to rest. This just goes to show that once you submit news to major Web sites like ours, you'd better be ready to back up your claims when word spreads and investors who mean business won't tolerate anything less. Of course everyone suspected it all along, so this third update is only necessary for a laugh.

so what if infinitymods and team ice are the same ppl (as ip tracing shows) Maybe they do it because those at infinty are easily contacted so they make a false identity to try and hide the identities of those who circumvented the milti billion $ coorperation MS. would you want that kind of power coming down on you if you cracked the uncrackable 360 (you know ms will try to come at them legally) so they tried to hide their identities, but you guys destryoed that idea. this is just my theory, bc its what id do. ps why are they still insisting that that it is going to launch and that there will be a video soon?

NO so you stfu! now if i were ice...i would have already taken peoples money. yes they have fishy things going on with their site, but so what! at least they have a site. how many groups put up a site while starting up a new chip production? again if i were ice i'd already have taken the money, and would not continue to say there will be more info/proof released soon. why would they continue to pay for hosting and BW if they had been figured out? come on tony what do you have to say about that? well since you got everything figured out already, can you please tell me how to cure HIV/AIDS? cuz i have heard on the news that they have made progress using epilepsy drugs, but that must be a hoax too. please fill me in

So, what makes it offical? WTF is offical??? Why should anyone take you seriously if you can't even spell correctly. AND the video is NOT up, its 404. You can't even maintain the site, how can you develop a chip??? Videos are not proof, look at the dozens of downgrader videos for psp, or the dozens of gamecube videos years ago before there were chips out. Videos are easily faked, as I suspect this one is (altho I cant confirm that since the video is not up). There was at least 1 fake 360 video, now I guess there are 2. Everyone knows you are a fraud, why do you continue? Divineo just outed you, you are the laughing stock of the scene. Please, just leave. Shut down your sites (infinitymods and icemodchip) and leave.

I really wanna see this video now. A dark room, a huge entertainment center, and wireless controllers... hmm... It's pretty difficult to hide a second xbox back there, and since the controllers are wireless... just use your imagination. I mean, I thought they would at least have everything close up like the psp fake video with the bad edits, but to do it in a dark room with an entertainment center? That's just lazy. I'm not surprised tho, everything about them is half assed. They even use an infinitymods.com email address to register icemodchip.com, so its not surprising.

By the way, what methods of shipping do you offer, and if you accept outer Seas Credit Cards or only Credit Cards from USA or Canada. Since i have both outer Seas and American credit card, but do you guys offer Pay Pal Aswell. thanks for your answer.

The video is now up and working, and let me tell you, its HILARIOUS!!! First of all, the unit is already set up and you don't see any wires coming to the tv so there is no proof that the unit you see is playing what they put in. Second, the whole thing is shot at a distance, in pitch blackness. Third, you can see the disc he is putting in is a burned disc, but you cannot read what it says, and it could be anything, including a dvd movie they burned (which the xbox can read natively) of some cod2 footage. Fourth, THEY DON'T PLAY THE GAME! They just let it start to show the opening footage (someone confirm if that is what the opening of the game looks like, I don't have the game), it could just be a trailer converted to dvd. Fifth, they are like 12 years old. You want me to think that a 12 year old made a chip? Give me a break. This proves nothing but the fact that this is all a scam.

The link is working fyi. I think I figured out what they did. They most likely took the cod2 demo off the kiosk disc, repacked the iso and burned it to a dvd. We already know this is possible. Now, if they took, say, DOA4 which is not on the demo disk, it may be more believeable.

01-10-2006, 03:41 AM
Well, what they boot is not the COD2 demo, I have it myself (the cd-r version), and it doesn't display any sort of intro movie... it just loads with a screen where the controls are displayed, whereafter you can press start to play, so it's deffo not the demo.
Anyhow, we don't actually see that it is the burned disc they put into the X360. It could be the original game, or?

Because the movie is fake.
Anyway, I just played with the kiosk disk and ya it goes straight to the game with no intro. It is very possible, however, that they just hacked up the kiosk disk to play the intro movie, or just downloaded a trailer and converted it to a dvd, or they are running it off a second xbox. Since they don't actually play the game, and even if they did that's far from proof, its hard to tell what they did.

i want to see a tv in the middle of a room and music playing in the room as to listen for any cuts to the vid with the 360 hooked up to it and the cam pans around 360 to show only the 360 hooked to the TV then with a wired cont turn on the system boot to dash then show my game burning on my laptop take it out put it in my 360 and play. thats how id make a vid if i had a REAL chip but if i had some fake ass chip id make a vid more like this one.

Is that thing gonna stop ?
Those assholes really think we are that stupid
and the now the video muahahahahaha
Guys that would build such a chip (don't remember how many engineers etc ...) are not able to make a better footage ?
it's dark , blurry . The best thing is the time it takes after the dude pressed the power button to get a image on the TV
(i bet it's not a HD that one :) )
So this is pretty obvious , it's just because what you see on the TV is a working version of Call of Duty 2
but it's for sure coming from a second Xbox 360 that is really connected to the TV and those guys are even too dumb to synchronize the moment they push the power button of the consoles !
Really that's too funny and we will still laugh in a decade !

They simply replaced it with the original game when they cutted the video lol.

more fake info from team ice if anyone cares anymore, now they say ftp is possable, whatever.
from P.O.S.chip website(from their new forums):
OK people here is a little information.
This modchip is a basic solution, once installed will allow full backups to be played, the xbox supports dvd-R (if ripped to dvd5), and DL disks.
Pal and NTSC support, Hard Drive Support, and Ability, to use FTP as well (currently being perfected).
Wires are currently consisting of 29 wires, (we are trying to shrink that down before release)
Chip is Currently working now on v1, and v2 consoles !
Media, and pictures have not been released due to security details that can be reveled, expect alot of them soon !
Hope everyone has a great week, and we enjoy seeing you all in the near future.

It IS the retail game with a white sticker on it. As he is putting it in the 360 (which, btw, is still unopened and we never see the "chip" soldered in and you don't see the back of the tv so there still could be a second xbox), you can see the reflection of the dye in the glass door and its obviously gold. It's the retail game. If you remember the first video it was a burned disc and they just swapped in the original with a video edit, but it was a burned disc, now its the retail disc with a white label on it.
