Burning Xbox Games

[NSA11N]

IS anyone able to burn XBOX games...

I'm after a few more driving games....

PS - I have a chip in my xbox

[Whyallapunk]

You should be able to just load the games straight onto ur xbox. I got a chip from gamefix around 2-3 years ago that allows me to put a game in, and rip it's contents onto the hard drive and play it whenever i want without the disk. I have a mass storage of roughly 160games, and I've filled it up lol. SHould be very cheap to get done nowadays.

Yeah upgrade your HDD if u havent already and just borrow the game and copy it to the HDD, loads ALOT faster than from DVD

TO do this you need to donwload a p2p program to connect up your xbox to your pc.

Connect your xbox to your pc obviously through a network cable. Place the game in the xbox and using p2p program (you must obtain your xbox's ip address to connect) connect to the xbox. Access the dvdrom on the xbox and copy all the data to your hard drive. This takes the longest ammount of time.

Once this is done you must create a ISOX file. This is so it is bootable on the xbox. Just look for an ISOX program which are normally run in dos format and just zip it up for you.

Last but not least burn the ISOX image using nero and your done.

sorry to be a tad off topic, but what DVD do you use to burn movies to, to play on DVD players? DVD+R or DVD-R?

Also, does anyone know how to burn .bin+.cue files to DVD to be played on DVD players?

[Whyallapunk]

Ok. Sky do you have Nero 7? If so, create a DVD video and add you movie file and burn it off. Use a DVD+R, DVD-R is standalone DVD player readable. Some comps can read them, but use DVD+R and it will work on DVD player if you follow what i wrote

Now for the .bin and .cue files. Use daemon tools to mount these, this will create a virtual drive. Go to my computer and there should be a new drive in the now that wasn't there before. Go into it, then find the video file (Usually in MPEGV i think its called). Now copy that movie onto the desktop then use what i said about burning the dvd above and it will work on a DVD player.

ive got nero 6 because nero7 scews up when i try to burn audio cd's without gaps between tracks...

For burning DVD's i use ConvertXtoDVD which converts .AVI to DVD format, does Nero do the exact same thing?

[Whyallapunk]

Yeh. Nero also enables you to change the file to PAL though. All our DVD players are PAL, and sometimes files are NTSC, so nero enables you to change it to PAL for dvd players.

So just use your convertX and just follow my daemon tool guide and ull be all good.

Just buy a Divx Player! You can just chuck on the avi files on the disc. They are cheap and you dont need to convert anything to dvd

does anyone know if 360's can be modded yet?

[kralster]

They can be modded to play back up's of games. The catch i beleive is taht your dvd burner in your pc has to match the dvd drive in the system, something to do with the firmware i believe.

does anyone know if 360's can be modded yet?

There is a dvdrom firmware hack that fools the xbox360 that a 'genuine' game has been inserted - where infact its a backup.

All you need to do is pull apart you xbox360 (voids warantee) and flash your xbox360's drive with the hacked firmware. There are plenty of tutorials around to step you through the process - but its all pretty easy.

sorry to be a tad off topic, but what DVD do you use to burn movies to, to play on DVD players? DVD+R or DVD-R?

DVD-R are cheaper so use them. You should be looking at about $18 for 50 blanks.

Xbox is a full media centre and can do so much more...

The easiest way to get games for ur chipped xbox is to use a prog call Qwix. It's free and piss easy.

Just d/l an xbox game iso off torrenspy or whereever u d/l u stuff from. once it's download connect ur xbox to ur PC with a network cable. open Qwix and load the ISO file and click Go. all done in like 10mins (depending on ISO size).

This is illegal, and suprised no one has closed this thread..... but just to clear some stuff up

Use DVD-R's, XBOX designed to read -R's, may read +R's but you could be degrading the quality of its dvd drive if you excessively use DVD+R's. (PS2's use DVD+R) And for the love of god don't use laser DVD's. They suck more than you'd think.

You use a connector cable, not a network cable to connect the two.

I use programs like Smart FTP to link the xbox to the PC. Mind you - turn your internet off when you use this program. It opens ports and makes your computer more suseptable to hackers, malware, etc.

For burning - Power DVD I think is the best program out there. Nero is fine also, when burning make sure your speed is slow, 2x, or 4x max.

Do not burn games to your stock HDD, use a larger one. This does void Microsofts' warranty mind you. If you burn it to your stock HDD, it works a few times but can make your XBOX crash and ultimately screw your XBOX's chipped operating software. Then you'll need to whipe your HDD, and freshly install a new copy

Ps. I don't condone burning XBOX games

i know +R's work on PS2

Man i gotta get my xbox a bigger HD so i can store everything on that.

Would be so much easier to watch movies straight off that!!!

[R34 Rampage]

All the connecting xbox to the comp seems quite bothersome. So can you just hire games from the video store and copy them straight into your xbox HDD?

If i've got an xbox with modchip, 120gb HDD with an older version of XBMC, can I do this?

[ABuSD]

When i said get a bigger HDD and copy the games directly to it i meant the XBOX HDD, not the PC, ive got a program on my XBOX that will let me load any XBOX game onto the XBOX's HDD. I thought these programs were standard once your box is chipped?!?!
