    A while back I got ahold of a copy of this floating around these forums, or possibly someone who haunts here. It's an unreleased Xbox Need For Speed type prototype. (So I've heard)

    First, I'd like to credit and thank whomever it was that released it. Second, I wanted to ask that person if they ever got it up and running, because I have/can not. I've downloaded two dozen or so "patchers" and tools, nothing gets it running. There are a couple XBEs in the folder that run intro graphics for a moment, then go black. The default.xbe just reboots my system. Any ideas?

    You have to run it on an xbox 1 dev kit, i can't exactly remember if it will work on a debug kit, but it may. I know for a fact that it wasn't successfully ran on a modded retail.

    It does work on a Standard Debug xbox. I would also assume it works on a dev kit, but I do not have one to test it on to be able to confirm it. It have that running on my debug, but for some reason it is INSANELY SLOW! Not sure if that is just me or what, but that is what it is doing so...

    I ran into a similar issue with it, but if I recall it was a simple issue of selecting the correct region to run the debug in. It speeded the title up and no longer crashed.

    I've also had a few debug titles that wouldn't run on a Debug Kit, but were happy on a Dev unit, but this wasn't one of them and it came from the same source :)

    Ok guys, thanks! I tried patching it with a debug to retail patcher, but no such luck. I guess this one will have to remain in my background collection.

    I came across another called "DinosaurHunting" which appears to be an unreleased Japanese xbox title. It boots to a black screen, so it's doing slightly better then Project Velocity. Has anyone else heard of or gotten this title working? I can upload if needed.

    Project Velocity needs 128MB RAM, IIRC.

    Dinosaur Hunting: http://xbox.ign.com/objects/569/569658.html

    Released in Japan and the US.

    hhhmmm, weird. Perhaps the person who released or uploaded it didn't understand it was released. Either that or it's an early copy. Regardless it doesn't work.

    I'd be more along the lines of ignorant. If anything, I'll megaupload it later and put it up so that it can be looked at by someone more seasoned then myself.

    Ok, I got the green light and uploaded it last night. it's 1.5gb so be prepared.

    edit removed lul, leaning towards retail

    edit: also no promises this is an english version, prototype or otherwise. I've just been led to believe so and I haven't managed to run it yet so I cannot confirm. If someone gets this running or gains any info exploring it, let me know. I'd really like to know wtf is clogging up one and a half gigs of my prototype folder =\

    Oryginal uploader say Quote"Tested on NTSC-U xbox. All the text is in Japanese, however all voices are in English. I don't know much about this game, all I found out is that it was cancelled, and have no idea how far this version got before they canned it but from what I played its probably close to final."

    Well hello, take time away from bragging to visit me? How flattering. I was wondering when you'd goosestep into another topic that had no concern to you.
