A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

It depends on Xbox model and your skills in soldering.
Mine was Corona (2010) and it was quite easy. The most difficult part was to solder to a tiny pad that is covered with green varnish. It is easy to break and it is bit difficult to solder to.
The best part today is that you won't need any mod chips. Only wires is enough for most of the console versions.
But even more so, you don't need to even solder if you want to soft mod it (non permanent solution). Just plug usb in and wait a little and it's done. Unplug usb and it boots to stock.
