So, you want that XBox 360 experience, but just can't quite scrape together the asking price? You can always fake it with a mod that makes your XBox interface look and act like one for the 360. (Or at least close enough to fool a gullible friend or two.)

Xbox Media Center 2.0 is a skin that makes your Xbox look like an Xbox 360 (without the high def, of course). The XMC an open source multimedia player for the Xbox that lets you play or look at most movies, music and pictures on your Xbox using the console's harddrive, discs or even a LAN connection to you computer.

You can check out a short movie of the skin in action here.
