xk3y 'Unlocks' Your 360!

4.4
Hey guys, Rickshaw here, I am pleased to announce that our friends over at xk3y have sent us over a brand new xk3y which is allowing me to introduce it to you guys, right here, right now! Some of you guys may have already seen this, heck some of you guys might already own this! Basically the xk3y is a ODD emulator which allows you to play backups of your own games off a USB stick! Right out of the box I knew this thing was going to be one of the best ways to play backups on the Xbox 360. It was boxed with care, amazingly compact, extremely user-friendly, and was setup in no more than 10 minutes!




With all the random products that are released its hard to know what is a good product and what is a complete waste of money. The way the xk3y team takes pride in their work reassures me into fully believing that this is going to get continued support and the dedication something that is always changing needs. Once I got the product home I very quickly noticed that they had an 'Authorize your xk3y' button on their site. In able to gain access to their forums for support and updates you must verify you have purchased an authentic xk3y.


They have a full team dedicated to helping others aswell, which is a huge bonus in my eyes. Even though this is plug and play hardware it still can get frustrating at times.


How it works:
The xk3y works by bridging in between your 360 motherboard and your ODD, it then splits off to where it can accept a HDD or a SSD and emulates the drive.


    Requirements:

  • You will need your DVD Key which can be easily grabbed.

  • You will need an Authentic xk3y product.

  • You will need a MicroSD USB/Card Reader.

  • You will need a Computer.


My final verdict on this xk3y is going to be that it is an amazing product. When I first seen it I figured it was just going to be an alternative to people who cannot flash their drive to play backups of their own games, but once I got one of my own I realized I was very, very wrong. This is a must, not an alternative.


It has an extremely clean case, they put a lot of time into constant development and updates, and you can tell by the product itself that they are genuinely proud of their product. This is well worth $130.00 in my eyes.


Below you will find some pictures from the assembly and unboxing of the product, aswell as a picture from the completed product and a link to purchase your own xk3y!
