Gran Turismo 5’s Multi Monitor mode links three PlayStation 3s into one continuous view across three screens — no special hub, and it works in full GT career mode instead of just Arcade.
Back inside the Xbox Series X that kept shutting itself off — this time going all the way to the die itself to find out if the theory from Part 1 was actually right.
My Xbox Series X started powering itself off mid-game, but only in some games. Working out why turned into a proper electrical diagnosis, and it ended up somewhere I didn’t expect.
A Sapphire Radeon RX 580, then a PowerColor RX 6600 XT, wired into a Raspberry Pi 5 over OCuLink — a custom kernel, a patched memcpy library, and Half-Life 2 at 4K on a $60 computer.
An i.LINK Battle mode hidden inside Gran Turismo 3 links three PlayStation 2s into one continuous view across three screens — and, later, one genuine ultra-wide picture stitched from all three.
A GitHub find, a beefy USB-C power supply, and an official Active Cooler — the full story of building Valve’s Source Engine from scratch and getting Half-Life 2 running natively on a Raspberry Pi 5, no emulation involved.
Retiring the optical drive on a Japanese GameCube in favour of a GC Loader — an SD-card ODE that replaces the drive assembly entirely.
A Hong Kong roadside electronics stall, some haggling, and a genuinely grubby Sega Dreamcast — cleaned up, brought back to life, and rescued from an early retirement.
