Hmmmmm. I don't know about hacking, but I am tempted to get 360 for Test Drive Unlimited, although a part of me wants that PS3, and I can't afford both at the same time.

ban me from MS eh. well i guess it is a good thing PS3 uses Linux.

There are other programs to use for playing over the interent. It's just that Live works best.

Looks like you are in luck Alex.

They state that this is the real deal and its been on Xbox Scene so it has to have some truth to it.

Just look round on the web.

There are like 3-4 compaines with a mod chip out for the 360 now.

Best part is there are only around 14 wires to solder and cost is a unbelievable 50 bucks!

It doesnt have to cost you anything and why would you want to solder any wires ?

Well your way is probably the cheapest and best. I just thought there might be some limitations. Hell if its the same as a mod chip and free then why the hell not? Also one more question what kinda media you use for burning the games? Like what brand? Since brand does matter from my experiences from the PS2.

Too bad I dont have a 360 anymore.

I shouldnt have sold it yet. Now I feel like a dumbass since Forza 2 is coming out. PS3 aint gonna be shit for me till they get some good racing games out, and by the looks of it the best racing game for the SONY platforms is gonna be delayed. (Who would have thought. :roll: ) Talking about the GT series of course.

Actually, there are a few limitations.

The hitatchi drive runs on older firmware compared to the samsung one so it doesn't have a couple of features. The samsung drive with the latest firmware doesn't vary the read speed or something, its always running at full speed. But if you go with an older firmware, the load times are pretty slow. And you can't flash the phillips drive apparently.

Verbatim is the best media to burn stuff on, and seems to work very well with the xbox. Memorex seems to be shunned for burning stuff for the xbox though.
