Arrested recently for selling early dev kits of XB1, and unveiling parts of the system last year
Now SuperDAE is out on bail, and reports claim his freedom was fast, because of his 'deadman switch' on a FTP vault of secrets regarding Microsoft's new XBOX ONE console

We have all read the stories about SuperDAE trying last year to sell off a couple of Durango dev kits, the early models of the XB1, and then later on spilling out a ton of information regarding the 'insides' like 'specs' of number of cores, size of ram, long before Microsoft had their big event, and because of that, Microsoft was hunting SuperDAE down, and even raided him, and now recently arrested him, but this is weird the story turns weird, it seems SuperDAE has an deadman switch on his FTP server, and if he is not given a free pass, all of Microsoft's secrets regarding the XB1 will spill out into the massive world of the 'net, forever out there for fellow hackers and users.
So, scene ONE is now finished, Henry (aka) DaE is now on bail (step 1 to being a free man), but will Microsoft play hardball and throw him to lions of the court for Justice even though he gave the local police and FBI an ultimatum, either let all this XBOX ONE information leak totally, or let him become a free man with no charges.
Stay tuned for the next scene of 'THE HOSTAGE' playing now in an American Corporate Boardroom, and coming soon to your 'net!

According to a report from The Verge, Microsoft is killing off its Points system used primarily for the Xbox, in favor of a true currency and gift cards system.
So, similar to the infrastructure that Apple has in place, users will be able to make purchases with debit/credit cards, or buy gift cards at retail stores. The new system would work across the Windows Store, Windows Phone Store, and the Xbox Live Marketplace.
Apparently, an official announcement is expected at the upcoming E3, with a planned launch later this year, just in time for the next-generation Xbox.
If true, it was about time, don't you think? Stay tuned!

Amazing 'Scene' Drama has been unfolding on scene sites around the 'net. Reseller 'ModControl' makes claims that the reason he was raided recently in Germany by the police over selling RGH-enabling products and consoles, was because of Team 'Squirt360' helping the police out along with hiring an lawyer after 'ModControl' told its customers they are not going to support 'Squirt360' products as their product is crappy compare to other versions other versions from 'Team-Xecuter' and 'Matrix' suppliers. http://scmods.com/pictures/police.jpg We here at X-S decided to get the other side of the story from Squirt360 team before posting the news, and here is their answer: So there you have both sides, up to you to decide the truth between the lines from each party. -- Stay Tuned for more 'scene' drama!

It looks like Microsoft released a new Xbox360 Slim motherboard codename 'Corona'. This new motherboard was found in a Forza 4 250 Go Pack with black matte finish, a Liteon 1071 ODD and 2011-08-17 MFR. The PSU goes from 10.83A (for the orginal 'Trinity' Slim motherboard) to 9.86A. The biggest change it that it looks like the HANA chip is "gone". It is suggested the HANA and SouthBridge have been put together into 1 chip on this new motherboard. This could have (serious) implications for the Reset Glitch Hack (RGH) as it was using the HANA chip for the timing management (but there might be alternatives). But at this time it's too early to tell. However it is (very) unlikely this is a answer from MS to the RGH ... a motherboard revision takes months of preparation and this motherboard was manufactured before the RGH was even released. http://pictures.xbox-scene.com/xbox360/corona/photo3-3-200.jpg http://pictures.xbox-scene.com/xbox360/corona/photo4-1-200.jpgNews-Source: xboxhacker.org http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/xylG90nakkHyLYr6vhHLxcCiBO8/0/di http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/xylG90nakkHyLYr6vhHLxcCiBO8/1/di View the full article
