Crawler360 released what appears to be the first homebrew application that you can run on a retail Xbox 360 using the recently discovered Hypervisor Vulnerability. The program simply displays a ‘Hello World’ message using the editable shaders in King Kong.

However, the process of booting the hack is currently not open to all users. This will require you to have an Xbox 360 with kernel 4532 or 4548 installed, connect the serial port on your 360, and have a modified DVD firmware to run backups along with a copy of the King Kong game (US or PAL).

All in all, this exploit is a giant leap forward for the 360 homebrew scene. Things can only get better from here on out! ;-)
