View Full Version : Browse the Internet on Your Xbox360
Anthony Park has invented software that will allow you to browse the internet with the Media Center Edition remote. This means, technically, that you can go to the more programs tab on your Xbox360 and run the program. Then you can use the remote to surf the internet on your Xbox360. Images included.

They should just give up and put a damn browser in there and sell a wireless trackball/keyboard.

Looks about half as useful as the PSP browser. And that thing is gimped.

Err, isn't it only rendering the image of a PC browser running on a PC:
It is using the MCE PC to render an image of the Website which it displays on the 360, but you will not be able to enter any text. (For Example, google wouldn't be useful because you cannot enter text.) However you are able to follow links. No, the USB Keyboard does not work with this as of yet. This also means the likelyhood of getting a virus on your Xbox360 is next to nothing. The browser is basically showing you an image of a browser running on your PC.
I might have quoted a liar so forgive me.

Com'on, y'all need to understand that the 360 is merely an upgraded XBox. Don't be so hard on it!

Lame. As if the PS3 isn't just an upgraded PS2.
