ScummVM 1.3.0git for Xbox1
>> A600 released a port of ScummVM 1.3.0git for Xbox1.
ScummVM is a program which allows you to run certain classic graphical point-and-click adventure games, provided you already have their data files. ScummVM supports many adventure games, including LucasArts SCUMM games, many of Sierra's AGI and SCI games and many more.

From the Xbox port readme:
[QUOTE]
This is a ScummVM port for the Xbox1, possible thanks to the hard work of the ScummVM team and the SDLx libs by Lantus.

It features all the engines except Broken Sword 2.5, and supports MP3, Vorbis, Flac and FluidSynth (the MT32 emu isn't included because the Xbox lacks the power to handle it). All HQ scalers should work and the Monkey Island 1 and 2 fan patch is also included.

The file xbox.patch is the diff patch against the latest SVN (r44744 - http://svn.github.com/scummvm/scummvm)

Small Changes on Maximus 360Lizard Batch 2
>> From 360lizard.com:
[QUOTE]
At this time you should be getting your Lizard Units from batch 2, we have made some small changes on the kit contents that we want to comment on.

Changes on the Scorpion 2: We included a plastic case with it, this will help you to do a more safe job and to preserve the probe tip of the unit. Also we have changed the grabbers for a new type "jaw" that allow a stronger and easier connection as now the Grabbers can be placed side by side (check picture bellow). We will update the tutorials to include reference to this new grabbers but meanwhile here you have them for fast reference.

Changes on the Kit: We have removed the minispear from the main kit as the scorpion covers the key read functionallity of all phat liteon drives. The Minispear will be still available as separate item on stores for those who might need them.

XCM Re-Mapper
>> From xcm.cc:
[QUOTE]
To some, the Xbox 360 controller is most arguably the best controller, but the button location may not be the perfect place for some games. In order to fix this, you may need to re-map some buttons that will suit your preference and gaming style. What if you're left handed and like to use the left LT as your shooting trigger and RT trigger for throwing grenades or even switching weapons? The XCM Re-Mapper allows you to re-map ANY button on a wired Xbox 360TM controller (except SELECT, START and Guide button) making gameplay that much easier, enjoyable and playable now.

*You MUST use a wired Xbox 360TM controller. XCM Re-Mapper will NOT work with wireless Xbox 360 controller Play & Charge Kit.
