Xbox 360 Non-JTAG is a exploit that allows you to play Arcade Games, GODs, and DLC without have to buy them from the marketplace. It requires you to download a game, and the profile that bought the game. Put it on a USB Flash Drive/HDD, launch the game using the profile therefore bypassing the security check, as the profile that launched the game bought the game. Signing out of the profile, and into your own. Allowing you to play the game.
Requirements
A Xbox 360 Console A Internet Connection A USB Flash Drive (Minimum for Arcade Games: 4GB, Minimum for GODs: 8 GB) A PC
Optional:
A large HDD. (To store games, you can also store games on a USB Flash Drive so this is optional.) A HDD Transfer Kit (It simplifies the transfer process, and they're dirt cheap.)
Setup
To start off you'll need a program called Horizon. It's a simple, yet effective program that can read HDDs, and USB Flash Drives that have been formatted by a Xbox 360 console. Once you've got it all set up, go to your Xbox 360.
If you're using a flash drive, format it using your Xbox 360 by plugging it into one of it's many USB ports. Go to System Settings>Memory>USB Device, click A and click A again to configure the Flash Drive. Allow the format to finish, and go to the next section of the guide.
If you're using a HDD Transfer Kit, go to your Xbox 360, take off the HDD, and go to your computer.
Getting the Non-Jtag Data
In order to accomplish getting your free games, you'll need two things. A non-jtag profile, and the data of the game you want. This can be accomplished by googling Xbox360nonjtag. Once you've found the two non-jtag data requirements (The profile, and the game.) You're ready to get started. Oh, and the profile should be in a folder called E0000***********, where * could be anything. The game folder is typically in multiple series, of folders which vary from game to game. (NOTE: When you get the profile/game, do not mess with the folder structure.)
Let's go get those free games!
Transferring the Data
Alright, you've got your HDD/USB Flash Drive all set up? Got the game, and profile of said game? Alright you're ready. To transfer the data, follow the steps below.
USB Flash Drive:
1. Start up Horizon.
2. Connect your HDD/USB Flash Drive to your computer
3. If all was done correctly if you view your Profiles/Games tab in the Device Browser in Horizon you should see the name of the profile, and the name of the game you wanted.
Unhook your USB/HDD, and go back to your Xbox 360.
Starting up the Game
Plug your USB Flash Drive/HDD into your Xbox 360. Then turn it on.
While at the Dashboard, sign out of any profiles. Then.. Depending on the profile, you'll need to sign in.
Banned Profile: Press the Guide Button, press X, choose the profile you downloaded and with skilled timing press the Guide Button again when you see the profile's gamerpicture on the Dashboard in the upper right corner of the screen. Once signed in, you should see all the Xbox Live Promotions that usually appear when you're connected to Live. Go to the Game Libary, start up the game you downloaded. When it starts, it'll pop up with "Please sign into the Profile that purchased this game. Press A, then press Y. It'll prompt you to create a new profile name, press the Guide button, sign out of the profile, and sign into your own. Enjoy the game.

I always wondered if you could get banned for this. Did anybody ever get banned for doing this?
Aha. Nope, no reports of anyone being banned. Microsoft tried to patch it in the last update, but we've found a work around. Of which I posted. However, whether or not this exploit survives the next one is yet to be determined.
can u post the method of launching xbla games as well? ive always been confused at those
Launching? Same way you launch GODs. Sign into the profile, start the game. Wait until you're at the main menu of the game. (Make sure it doesn't say trial, or Unlock Full Game.) Sign out, and sign back in.
can I trick my jtaged box this way to play indie games ? I have the game and the profile that bought the game
Nope. Indie Games require Live. As does this method.
ok thank you so this method doesn't work if youre banned on live ? but other than that, this method sounds really interesting. so youre basically ignoring all the owner rights and stuff by just logging in to another profile ? that sounds so easy
