Xbox modifiers?

[olliedude]

Can you get modifiers for the x-box version of MP? I know you can get online with one, and I know you can get mods for dreamcast games so I was hoping that you can (eventually) do it on an x-box. images/icons/confused.gif

I don't know about mods, but add-ons will be possible. Check out this MS page for Halo. Notice the "Enhance Halo" heading part way down the page? Looks like add-ons will be common like they have become for PC games. This is a good thing IMO. Some of the best gaming levels are created AFTER the initial product ships.

No, the console versions of Max Payne don't have mods available for them, nor will they.

The "online" thing for the Xbox is only a viable option for games that have multiplayer built into them.

Would it be so hard for some h4x0r to make an HTTP or FTP client that works on the Xbox? What better way to use that monster-harddrive than for game mods?

So, you just reverse-engineer Xbox-Max, and alter it to make it check the disk for mods, burn it on a DVD together with an HTTP-client run from within Xbox-Max images/icons/grin.gif

(I know nothing about the stuff I'm talking about heh)

The current Max Payne X-Box release has not been released with Enhancements in mind, so obviously it won't be Enhanceable. You may have noticed that no Enhancements are available for any other X-Box titles at the moment either.

They haven't even seemed to explain what the Enhance option exactly does?

Umm... Amped (http://www.microsoft.com/games/Xbox/amped.asp) and Oddworld (http://www.microsoft.com/games/Xbox/oddworld.asp) are the only games which have any "Enhance" content available and both games only have the "fan site starter kit" available for download.

AFAIK, Microsoft hasn't allowed any content changes or additions after a game has been released.
