Title: Burn Xbox 360 Games
Post by: realg123 on January 21, 2009, 03:14:04 PM
Can I burn xbox 360 games. Using a dvd burner? as long as the dvds are dual layer?
also i just got my 360 modded, what do firmware upgrades do?

burn at a slow speed like 2.4

I use Verbatim DVD+R DL with a pioneer 111D model burner
I have never had a bad burn from it.... yet.

I know people that use LG dvd writers and they do just fine as well.

basically get good quality dual layers and burn slow

firmware ( FW ) upgrades keep you more up-to-date with Micro$ofts attempts to ban you from live.
most people have 1.4 the newest one is 1.5

Yes you need to reopen the xbox if you dont have an external flashing kit, what you do is reflash the 360 drive with the newer xbox 360 drive firmware for your drive type.

oh btw... I'm still running on firmware 1.2
old FW

I have a live account and play on it sometimes.
I've never been banned and really could care less if I did.

I used to game online a lot more. that's when I would have kept the updates up to date.

bottom line it's better to stay on top of your firmwares, but I'm still on live with old 1.2
people get banned mostly when a big game is realeased and early copies are leaked.,.. IMO
