Flash on the X-Box 360 Our big blog brother, Engadget posted a great tutorial this morning showing you exactly how to run Flash (and therefore Flash-based-games) on you very own X-Box 360. Head on over for the full tutorial. Unfortunately the Dashboard upgrade released today by Microsoft will break this hack, but if you want to wait on the update try it out. I wonder if you could use this for basic FLV files too? If so, this would be a cool way to stream Google video (via the online player, not the purchased kind) or YouTube video to your X-Box 360 for HD viewing. Enjoy.

1. This was eliminated with new patch which is a FORCE UPDATE if you are connected to xbox live.

2. Actually if you don't update you can't connect to xbox live, and that's really the system's biggest selling point right now.

3. Excuse my limited knowledge...
However, the arcade games are Flash games or atleast based on flash correct? Is it possible to load Flash games downloaded from the web onto the XBox?

4. I can't speak for Google Video or YouTube, but we (Vidiac) are looking into every delivery method possible for our content creators.... including XBox 360. The 360 is a perfect bridge to get `net content to the TV, and Flash makes for the perfect conduit. Thanks for letting us know Flash is working on the 360..(for now)... time to convince the wife I have to get one now as a "Business Development Research Expense"!
