360 burning
« on: September 24, 2007, 02:55:18 AM »
My buddy just got a xbox 360 and i was wondering if burning games is the same process as the dreamcast? Will the games work on a dvdr or what? Thanx

You need to mod it first before it'll read DVDs.  We got a blessing with the dreamcast.

I was hearing that if you had a certain kind of dvd burner that it would work without modding, but I'd go for the modding thing first.

Another thing is that Microsoft is really trying to crack down on all the modded stuff going on. So if you do any of that stuff you are risking losing Xbox Live. And Xbox Live is fun ... so ...

They ban your console not your xbox live account.  If you were to buy a new 360 you could recover your live acocunt on it and continue playing,  Or just pop your hard drive on the new 360.  They dont ban your live account because it doesnt violate the Xbox Live terms of service,  Just the Xbox 360 System TOS.

Hell yeah.  Ive saved over almost 5 grand already and I've gotten quite a few games before release date such as Halo 3, Madden 08, Medal of honor Airborne and so on....

I really think its worth it and if you get banned just think of how much money you saved on all those games and go buy a new fuckin console!  Cores are only 250 now.
