Hidden and Unlockable Games for The Original Xbox - Easily play with a modded Xbox | MVG

The Original Xbox has a small library of titles that contain hidden and unlockable games. In most instances you need to complete the main game to in order to play the unlockable game.

In this video with a modded xbox, and a copy of a custom dashboard, like Unleash X, i show games that i have that contain unlockable or hidden games and how to play them without needing to unlock them in the main game.

Thank you so much for supporting my channel!

Dead or alive ultimate comes on 2 disks, one for DOA2 the other DOA1, what they dont tell you is that the disks are identical and they just renamed the XBE between the two disks, you only need one of them to play both games on a moded xbox XD

Remember when you could unlock things in games and not pay for them.

Note: I am aware of Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Terminator 3 containing unlockable games too but they cant be played with this method as they are embedded inside main game rather than a seperate executable.

There's also Ninja Gaiden (Original) and Ninja Gaiden Black. Ninja Gaiden (Original) has three unlockable games, they are the NES Ninja Gaiden games. Ninja Gaiden Black has only one unlockable game, and it's the arcade version of the game. And Ninja Gaiden Sigma (Remake on PS3) removed these unlockables.

Great stuff MVG. I think my faves were Maniac Mansion inside Day of the Tentacle and the magic carpet style flight sim hidden in Excel 97 :D

You mentioned being able to play classic arcade games in Yakuza 0 but don't forget that in Yakuza 6 it's possible to play the arcade/PS3 game *Virtua Fighter 5!* :)

Super cool. The original Xbox really is a system that keeps on giving.

So crazy!! Right when you said “the earliest hidden game I remember was the original Pitfall on the PC Pitfall” I was saying and answering the same thing in my mind. I was so blown away with this and thought it to be the coolest thing.

Another one I remember was being able to play Maniac Mansion on the computer in the game for PC “Day of the Tentacle”. Which btw has been ported to iOS for 5$. When I bought it was so happy to play it again but I also went immediately to the computer in Ed’s room to see if Maniac Mansion was still able to be played and sure enough it was. $5 for two incredible games is well worth it.

Spy Hunter (2001) for Xbox contained the original 1983 arcade title namesake on the disc, which was unlocked by entering the profile name Ogspy when making a new file. I was surprised not to see it in your video!

I remember in "Full Spectrum Warrior", you could unlock the official army training version with a code. That was also a separate .xbe on the disc.

man

you're the only person who has shown that you can do a lot with the Xbox than it was designed to do

I love games that come with old classics as a bonus. I bought quake 4 the other day and it freaking came with a bonus disc with a beautiful version of quake 2! It’s so awesome. I remember when I learned I could play old nes games in animal crossing. I immediately bought an action replay disc to unlock all of them.

Project Gotham Racing 2 (for the Original Xbox) contained the game: Geometry Wars and could be played via the in-game garage. Also, I'm not sure if it would count in this case, but Jade Empire had a playable demo of Conker: Live & Reloaded (as well as another game that escapes me) that was playable via the main menu.

Am I the only one who wants to go back to being a kid and having all these systems with the knowledge you have now

[MrMario]

Thanks for the awesome rundown of these titles! I only knew of Panzer Dragoon Orta but I never looked into any of the others, I do own Shenmue 2 so I'm happy to know I have 4 more games I can play in that :D

Great video man. Actually, everything I've watched on your channel so far today has been great. I don't know why I held off on watching your stuff for so long. Keep it up!

First hidden game I found was the awesome snail game when I got my UK Master System when I was a kid.

I freakin' love it when developers include such little old titles!
They won't gain anything from these anymore anyway, so it's a good idea to include them to raise the value of the new game!
