Use a blaster to save you some troubleGreat news from Team Xecuter">Blaster 360, PS3 Hyperdrive and Paradox loader">Team Xecuter! They just announced that the final version of Blaster 360 is out of beta testing and ready for manufacturing.

For those who haven't heard, Blaster 360 is an add-on to your Xbox 360 that lets you flash the firmware without the need to open your console up. In other words, newcomers to hacks can use this just as easily as pros, once they know the basics of flashing.

It's been a few weeks since they made the finished product, and all that time has been spent beta testing the thing. They've fixed the kinks inside and out, to the point that this new version has zero need for users to cut the case of their console at all!

According to the Xecuter crew, they're currently setting the price to be around US$ 70 because of the development on this premium item. With all the testing they did, it seems warranted. In any case, expect it to be in resellers' hands within the next two weeks, and check our site for updates to their distribution. If you want to know what else they managed to improve during the test process, we've got their forum post linked at the bottom for you. Enjoy!
