ps2 modchips have been out for a while now. i read about the xbox modchip a while ago too.

The best PS2 mod-chip is the DVD messiah..
it directly boots DVDr, CDr, Backups, imports..
If you have some knowkedge/worked with internal hi-tech electric circuits before i think you can install it and here's a link showing you how: http://www.china-messiah.com/

as for the XBOX i dont know.

xbox, i couldnt really care less but for ps2 the messiah is the best. Its kinda rare and you usually have to order from another country like japan.

I don't know anything about the messiah chip so I can't comment but it looks like mod-chip.com has the same "type" of mod-chip. As long as you don't have to swap anything out from your console its good like the ps1 mod-chips.

I've been hearing though that the ps2 linux kit will have mod-chip protection detection on it, so It would be useless to buy a mod-chip now, thats if your going to eventually get a linux ps2 kit.
