Crap! So now if Microsoft makes the download compulsory on new games we wont be able to play them?Guys if u got moded Xbox 360 then Don't Update to New Xbox LIVE dashboard..... This will disable your mod so u cant play pirated games anymore.....
MS have found a way to stop backup games and it seems like Microsoft added new protections to it. Several users seems to report problems booting certain games from recordable media on 360s with a modified DVD FW.
One of the titles affected seems to be Fable III. The game boots fine from any media on the current dashboard (9199) on a 360 with modified FW, but fails to boot from recordable media on the leaked/12606 beta dashboard; “This disc is unreadable” – while the retail disc will work just fine
Within the new update it has been revealed that firmware information for the consoles disc drive and its connection to Xbox Live can be monitored. This would send information to Microsoft and allow for greater monitoring of modded drives that play pirated games, alterations of drive firmware would then result in an instant console ban.
