What's (a) Flashed 360?

[Robbie]

Modding, profile editing etc.

You don't need a flashed Xbox for any of that.

[lBlue]

Don't you just need a transfer cable or whatever it is to do that? Pretty stupid though because it's easy to spot.

[GoldenMerc]

I do, but all i do is play copied games

[[Chris]]

Yeah, i do.

Copied Games.

And PROFILE MODDING, And SAVE MODDING - Only need a transfer cable of some sort.

Acheivment glitching do you mean? That is incredibly sad, and you will eventually get caught, and get your Gamerscore reduced to 0, even on games you got acheivments fairly on.

Don't see the huge appeal in acheivment points to be honest, not as if they'll gain you some sort of rep. :D

You can pretend you're Super Mario on N64.

what's the point in flashing your 360?

[Alba]

Aside from the fact you can download just about any game you want, and basically get games for 30p, dependent on what brand of disk you use. Nothing really.

DVD DL + R Disks arnt 30p lol?

And getting your Xbox flashed is worth it tbh

The kind i get are 25 for £10. So it works out as 30p a game for me, haha.

I keep all the games that are worth playing on external harddrives anyway, so even if a few disks burn out, i can always re-burn them.

I also have a flashed xbox 360, and quality disks cost more.

It's your choice, if you want your disks to last, and have no corrupt backups buy Verbatim disks, there on special @ play.com at the moment:

http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/4-/7871837/Verbatim43666DVD+R8xDualLayerDisc10spindle/Product.html?cur=257

10 for 10, which is an incredible price + free delivery.

the only perk with flashing your xbox 360 is being able to play backup'd games.


Warning

Some drives are hard to flash, and can be bricked which renders them useless, and if you dont have a backup of the dvd key, your xbox is useless.

There is also a chance of getting banned from xbox live, if they detect that your running a backup'd game.

My Arita disks have a lifespan of around say.. 8 months before they burn out? I don't have a problem with that. I don't see the point in paying buckets of money for Verbs, when i know i won't play every game i download as much as the likes of, COD, FIFA, Halo etc. I'm happy with Aritas. :)

Having corrupted disks is one way of getting banned from xbox live, if you go to play one, a log is sent to m$. that's why you check disks with agbx360.

In my opinion, it's well worth 1£ a game, when your saving 50 odd on not buying the game

What about when a regular disk becomes damaged. You're wrong. Oh and you dont check the actual disks you check the isos.

Well, i have been using this method for almost 2 years, and i've survived potential bannings. :)

And you check you're disks on ABGX to see if the disk has been copied correctly. A fully-burned corrupted disk, that has died through use won't get you banned. It's just like me scratching hell out of a retail game i have, and putting it in the Xbox.

I did infact get my facts mixed up between buying good quality disks and using agbx360.

If you dont use agbx360, and the iso is corrupted you have a chance of getting banned from xbl.

my main point was, if you buy verbatim's, your guarenteed for them to last, if you buy cheaper ones they just wear out after a while and sometimes you get a runner when trying to burn to them.

your aggravated reply was because I sent you a PM earlier which you could not reply to

KK guys i need help -

I need to update my PC driver (so I can burn the discs, not working atm)

Its 20quid down my shop. I have money but im wondering what i should ask for?

[Alba]

Ask for a drive that can burn Dual Layer disks. It won't be that much, i think you can buy new ones for £25. I don't know about updating them. A new one would probably be the best way to go.

Thanks :) Loving the name btw :)

And yeh its a whole new driver installed for 20 :)
I trust him as he flashed my 360 so.. :P

[james1234]

Do you recommend getting 360's flashed because i was thinking about getting mine done?

[Alba]

Yes, i have had mines done for the best part of 2 years. If you are going to get it done, you NEED to read up on how to properly play games on the console (if you are XBL player) without getting banned. After that, it's pretty simple.

It opens up a whole new genre of gaming for you imo, with the ability to download games whenever i want, i never get bored of the Xbox.
