Flashed 360.......

Ok, another 360 question

I got ma 360 flashed.........i dont want to get banned from live.........so, i'm not gonna go online ever with my copied games

But my question is, is it safe to go online with the original games I've got eg COD4/Halo3. Any game I wanna go online for, I'm gonna buy it, but, I just wants to know if its safe to go online with original games on flashed 360s?

I gots a non flashed 360, but, tis a pain swapping them over all the time to go online



Thanky yeeeeee

... defeats purpose of flashing, so whatever.


Umm as far as getting banned while playing real games I don't think you can get banned. like M$ detects modded consoles by the disc that is burnt, but ixtreme does a pretty good job of concealing you. also you wont get banned
as long as you dont update your dashboard. when you update your dashboard is when most get banned. Always wait a couple of days before updating your dashboard. Just see online what others say.

For the risk of not getting a stealth patched game, I'd rather get online ones proper.

And meh, its CoD4 i wanna play, which i bought ages ago so

Maybe when its been flashed a lil while longer i might download online games too lol. Just dont wanna get banned straight away ya know.

Thanks

how much did it cost to get it flashed btw

Like loca stated before flashing but not going online with stealthed games defeats the purpose of flashing. i got like 8-10 months i belive with my flashed 360 went online with a copied game first day. im still good never got banned. like loca said iextreme does a very good job of conceiling you especially the new versions. but yea original games are good i belive so yea hope it helps.

Then I think I'll download Frontline lol.

Other games I wanna play first though, which arent online anyway lol (Bully ftw )


Ehh how much to flash it?

Well, the VIA whatever sata PCI card, was £11 summit.............I flashed it myself, so, £11 summit lol.

I did buy a sata pcmcia for my laptop to do it, but didnt work (was less than £9 so meh ). So VIA card ftw

And the Discs are 5 for £10 in PC World.

But got 10 for £8 earlier dunno if they'll work though . Everyone (well pretty much everyone) says to use Verbatim..........if i wanted to pay that much I'd just buy games - but the 5 for £10 at PC World is Phillips, and all the games I've done so far, work great

If already have the right stuff, then it's zero. All you really need is one of those via chipset which is $20. And if you don't have the tools to open your xbox, then that might cost like $10 max. Don't forget about blank disc and dvd burner too.

UK ^ Prices

V US PRCIES


20$ PCI Sata Card Newegg/Ebay

32$ Memorex DVD+R DL (Verbatim quality has decreased since the company switched where the disc's were made, but it is still said to be the "best" I have some Verbatim's, but I mostly use Memorex, I don't see a point in spending more and getting less disc's)

14$ Easy Tool Kit to open your 360 (Not necessary, you can open it with a flat head screwdriver)

Patience and follow Textbook's 2008 guide


BTW Bex, Frontlines sucks.

Lol yup, it was Textbooks guide i followed

Didnt have the right screwdriver, but, had one that fitted
And ma friend made the "key" things for me
