i see youre point, Snafu
however i veiw softmodding a little differnt (although youre right heres what i see in "softmodding")
1. You dont buy anything (cheap guy here
) ever, never
2. You arent limited to one aspect of the console (playing burned games, only playing certain backups, ect)
3. I want to bACKup my games, no just burn them, i own all the xbox games i have backed up and if i got a 360 i dont want to have to BURN copies of them, that ruins the point for me
thats what i want in an Xbox 360 "softmod" and while thats not the def. of a softmod i think thats what a lot of people feel to
