    A. The Magic 4 does NOT exist, otherwise it would be on their website, and Guichi most likely would have posted it on the forum since he has connections with the Magic team.

    B. Those are matrix Messiah's, patterned off the old Magic 2's
    -US Nintendo Wii unmodded (waiting for modchip and install)
    -US Playstation 2 v15 SCPH-77001 w/Crystal Chip Pro 2.0
    -US V1.0 Xbox w/Xenium Ice and X2 custom BIOS

    LOL!

    yes the 'magice' team, LOL

    i dont think you've heard of what called 'Clones' and 'Business'. here, i'll give you a brief run down of it....

    To create a chip, costs money. You need other people to help you, and unless they are your close friends or you will be giving them a percentage of the sale, you have to pay them. The components of a PCB cost money. The consoles cost money. Testing (backups, installation tools, ****ed up mainboards that need replacing etc..) costs money.

    i will make up a figure (MADE UP! JUST AN EXAMPLE), lets say in total it takes 10,000$ to make a first working chip, and you sell it for 50$. Then from there, the components will cost 15$ to make. It will take a lot of sales to start making profit. (around 286 with those figures)

    So what Joe Ripper does, he rips the code, or gets a leaked beta code and puts it on crappy components. These are called Clones, because they are like the original, but they arent the original. So he does that, and it costs 5$ for the PCB and components. He claims they are real, and sells them for the normal 50$, so therefore, he gets immediate profit, and a lot of it. He does whatever he needs to get it done, because he knows he will make TONS of money.

    and thats how its friggin done. There is no Magic 4. Magic is a re-known name, so people use it and sell it as fakes/clones and make a shitload of money, like Joe Ripper. (btw - Joe Ripper is just an example of a name)
