Film & TV Waiting for a XBOX 360 Modchip? Don't hold your breath

the thing with moded systems is that you cant play online. I regret modind my PS2. Of crouse games are 5 bucks, but i cant play online and EB Games wont take it either (they check if the DVD player functions works...its doesnt cause its moded, so you have to turn it off if u wanna watch movies) Playing online's the greatest. Some of my homies skipped out on BJs and what not just to play online. Trust me. When i get the PS3, im not gonna get it moded.




my 2 cents :cool:

you probably have a first gen or a piece of crap modchip.Mine has a sleep function where u press certain buttons on the ps2 and it will disable the modchip and online games would then work.Of course you'd need a legit game or a cd-r and a cdkey no one has registered to play online with.

well, you think that the hackers would sacrifice online gaming for free games??? there's a special server for hacked games...atleast for xbox there is, and im sure that there's one for ps2...

and how are games 5 bucks for you??? they should be free?? you prolly rent right??? dl them using torrents....let me know if you need more info. on that....dont wanna type all that stuff up for nothing

The 360 uses regular DVD's so to rip them all you'd need is a DVD burner and the right software.

oh and then this...

Stolen X-Box 360 demo disc self-booting ISO on the net
According to information gleaned from around the web, a couple things have happened. For one, it is being reported that due to the rapid deployment of Xbox 360 kiosks to retail, that an "unprotected" DVD demo disc was produced by Microsoft, to show off the capabilities of the machine. Somehow, someone was able to "procure" said disc and has also copied it. In addition, it has been leaked to the Internet.

Reminiscent of the old SEGA DreamCast days, today the world"s first self-booting X-Box 360 iSO Image hit the net!X-Box 360 retail kiosks have started arriving at retailers. Due to the nature of the distribution process, not all kiosks are hitting simultaneously, but are continuing to pop up in retailers across the country in the coming weeks.

The kiosks are designed for a retail environment and feature game samples, game trailers and product information. Team PI leaves you with this Pillow statement: It seems Micro$oft was in such a hurry to get this stuff out that they forgot to set the media protection on this disc.

This leaves hackers with the posibility to hack around with this disc that load from a normal DVDR5 backup! - Team PI also notes that the all datafiles on this disc isn"t signed in any way, and will allow for extensive modification for producing exploits to further our efford to hack this box!

This so called demo disc has reportedly been created with a number of interesting features. For instance the disc contains games like Call of Duty 2, Hexic, Kameo, King Kong along with demos and videos of games, downsized to fit the disc. The report goes on to say that if you can find the ISO on the Net, you can burn it, place it in your Xbox 360 and boot with it. Then they say, set back and watch. Such a disc is an important find for those out there into hacking. But, due to the hardware involved in the creation of the Xbox, what this information would lead to in the future as far as understanding the Xbox 360 and how it works is unknown. However, it certainly opens some doors for the inquisitive among us.

There is some talk about using code from this disc, which apparently bypasses some of the security measures on the Xbox 360 and try to merge it into games already floating around the Internet. The thought being that one could even make any game play on the Xbox 360. Who knows?


Note: I have found this disc on the net, took me bout 2 minutes, so if this is something you want, want take a look, it is widely available by now.

this was taken straight off of torrentlounge.com, which was offering a copy of this disk....

^even if this has special code to bypass security measures,microsoft will just update the hardware on their next batches of xbox360s so these discs would stop working,maybe even game developpers will have to add some code to patch this exploit.Of course,the first generation xbox360 would have the advantage of playing backups.

My point is,this is still a weak solution

yeah, talked to some more people...looks like hacking the 360 is gonna be a little hard, but eventually it might happen....and i hope so too...

anyone know how to update your xbox media center? i dled it to my comp, but how do i send it to my box?
