Dead Or Alive Hackers Get Creative

Thanks to the Gaming Age forum regulars for pointing out that skin mods to the in-game characters in Dead Or Alive 3 for Xbox are getting ever-more complex, thanks to sites like Ninjahacker.net, who are going far beyond basics such as the DoA Xtreme Volleyball nude patch and developing completely new character skins for its sister fighting-game title, such as Zack as Darth Maul and Christie as Storm from the X-Men movie. These very unofficial hacks only work with an Xbox that's been modified in software/hardware, however.

Wired explains it all for you.

Seems the programmer who made the character editor was gay, and somewhat miffed that the artists using it were making hot bimbos, but no gay muscle boys, so he added some, and got fired for it once Will Wright discovered it.
