However, for the initiated—the hardware tinkerers, the preservationists, and the modding community—the real magic began with the JTAG (Joint Test Action Group) and RGH (Reset Glitch Hack) exploits.

It was the moment the floodgates opened, transforming the Xbox 360 from a curated walled garden into an open-air arcade of infinite possibilities.
