Once again things got a bit hectic last night with both PROTOCOL releases being nuked for anydvd style corruption just about the time I hit send (around midnight UK time) or in the hour leading up to it. I edited the last post quite a bit from first posting so you may want to read it again, as usual old posts at the end of the thread.
A couple of releases and pro evolution soccer 2010 appeared though so full post time it is. A slight rejig of the useful info section (some changes and no longer "spoilered" and layout of the post.

If you missed it wave4 is official, we have a thread in this forum section ( <a href="http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=185528" target="_blank">http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=185528</a> ) and in a post over at <a href="http://abgx360.net/" target="_blank">http://abgx360.net/</a> Kushan summarises it rather nicely (it is on the link I just gave/frontpage of the site).
Still no scene release of Borderlands but when it does hit it will be wave 3 and region free. As mentioned before a p2p release exists. GBAtemp thread on the subject: <a href="http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=185911" target="_blank">http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=185911</a>

In case you missed it MS are cracking down on users of the prereleases of Forza 3 in the form of live suspensions, there have been some rumblings of other prerelease games having the same "problem" but as usual we are somewhat in the dark here. Gaisuto has more in his thread: <a href="http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=186000&hl=" target="_blank">http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=186000&hl=</a>

These threads have been going on for a while (even longer if you count that they happened in previous years as well) but the general idea is in each post the days (or time since last post if nothing much happens on a given day) summarises the state of the 360 scene, it is done in the subforum as GBAtemp is mainly geared to towards the GBA and current Nintendo consoles but there are a substantial amount of 'tempers familiar with other consoles as well who discuss such things on the 'temp.
We cover big releases (a short writeup, release name, region locking information and NFO), the smaller releases (those without English in are usually covered here although we will cover a big Japanese release on the rare occasions one happens), any nuke information and likewise any confirmed games added to the 360 game verification tool ABGX360 as well as any homebrew news.
We tend to avoid covering the P2P game releases as they are not especially reliable when they beat the scene to releasing (previous years have seen several big releases made ahead of street dates which were later found to not be up to scratch) and afterwards there is not much point, this being said if any are of note they will be mentioned in passing.
If you have any suggestions for the format of the post or things we should add please chime in, if you want to help out in the coming months when things get really busy (we are sure you have all seen at least one summer games drought followed by a packed autumn/winter release schedule which is usually made even worse by being able to move in these circles) we are recruiting people to help post these up.

<!--sizeo:5--><span style="font-size:18pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo--><b>Nukes and related news as well as less notable releases.</b><!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec-->

<u><b>Nukes</b></u>
Nukes, no new nukes beyond the first two protocol releases that were covered last night (ABGX now lists 198).

PROTOCOL however released a repack of their earlier release <b>WWE_SmackDown_Vs_RAW_2010_RF_XBOX360_REPACK-PROTOCOL</b>. This will be covered in the main post.

<u><b>Homebrew</b></u>

Nothing new on homebrew but as before it is probably worth checking out xboxhacker.net as it has been a few days now since hacks were released for the slightly later models and some more discussion has been had on the subject.

<u><b>Less notable releases</b></u>

<b>Brutal.Legend.German.PAL.X360-UNLiMiTED</b>- German version of Brutal legend, unknown region locking but German releases are usually locked.
<a href="http://www.ludibria.com/nfo.php?sys=x36&sysid=1885" target="_blank">Link to NFO at ludbria.com</a> (NFO link will probably not work for a while).

<b>Additions to ABGX360</b>
We suggest you use the link below and the abgx360 tool as the site does not use scene naming meaning it can be quite hard to tell entries apart, this is just for reference really
ABGX360 ( <a href="http://abgx360.net/verified.php" target="_blank">Web frontend to verified database</a> ) added:
Qubed region free.

<!--sizeo:5--><span style="font-size:18pt;line-height:100%"><!--/sizeo--><b>Releases</b><!--sizec--></span><!--/sizec-->

Release dates can be found here: <a href="http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/xbox360/" target="_blank">http://www.gamefaqs.com/console/xbox360/</a> although the dates on gamefaqs seem to be slightly "off".
As usual these posts will be back as and when something happens, we sight see a few more early releases and region dupes over the weekend.

In order of most recent to pre:

<b>Pro.Evolution.Soccer.2010.PAL.XBOX360-PES10</b>
Region locked PAL- previous entries in the series have been region locked harshly though.

update: nuked for being a p2p repack. "repacked.p2p.version_i37.tinypic.com.9915rm.jpg"

Most sports games of the yearly repack variety have a rival series, Fifa (which came several days back) has the pro evolution soccer (usually dubbed pro evo) aka winning 11 series. Which is better is usually subject to as intense a debate as any other sports team/sports titles/choice of operating system/choice of sky fairy with as many poor arguments and equally bad use of statistics as any of the betting following such events sees. Personally there are no better sleep aids for me.

No NFO just yet as it pre'd shortly before I started this post.
<a href="http://www.ludibria.com/nfo.php?sys=x36&sysid=1886" target="_blank">Predicted link to NFO at ludibria.com</a>

<b>Indianapolis.500.Evolution.USA.XBOX360-APATHY</b>
Unknown region locking.

APATHY are back with their first release in a few months, the games in the wii series were fairly well received racing games and this is the newest in the 360 line. It appears to be a game that wishes to harken back to the glory days of the indy 500 (1961-1971 apparently). Whether it stands up to the big hitters from the last few weeks/months remains to be seen.

<b>WWE_SmackDown_Vs_RAW_2010_RF_XBOX360_REPACK-PROTOCOL</b>
Region free.

PROTOCOL released a repack of their first nuked release from yesterday, I promised a somewhat biting remark when I explained about posting this up yesterday. I think a quote from IRC works here instead:
setup: I asked if it was worth posting just for a wrestling game
The reply
"I usually tell people I like all games except wrestling games".

First the current WIP GBAtemp 360 FAQ (not the same one that is stickied), it should cover most questions you might have on the 360 although it too is looking a bit out of date right now:
<a href="http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=157263" target="_blank">http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=157263</a>

<b>XBOX360.Release.Standards.2007.v1.340</b>

Click on the image and it will load up the full picture.

As many of you know modding your xbox can lead to a ban from xbox live (more or less the only recourse Microsoft have), we do not know the exact methods used to detect modding but it is a fair guess that it is related to the games not appearing as originals for various reasons.
While playing games prior to street dates has been considered there are many that have played before release without issues so street dates for the games will be mentioned if truly necessary but do not count on it. On the other hand prerelease games can sometimes be bad dumps, dumps from non retail sources, bad packing of dumps like any other dump but without a retail copy it is markedly difficult to verify a release beyond the basics. The tool AGBX360 is used to verify isos, directories and games burned to disc and can fix isos and directories if necessary but requires this data (a basic check using the data the game holds is still possible though).
Those who do not care about being banned from live or are willing to risk it then not much need to worry unless otherwise mentioned (as an example the first leaks of Halo 3 ODST were bad which meant while they would run a good chunk of gameplay was missing).

Little bits of 360 release history will be covered from time to time but if you want to delve into the substantial back catalogue of games for the 360 then
<a href="http://www.abgx.net/filename/?ch=6" target="_blank">http://www.abgx.net/filename/?ch=6</a> has release names and a great deal of info.
Another site that is also very useful is (they are frequently a source of the NFOs posted with these releases)
<a href="http://www.ludibria.com" target="_blank">http://www.ludibria.com</a>
Other sites with useful tools and info are
<a href="http://abgx360.net/" target="_blank">http://abgx360.net/</a> (the homepage for a tool to verify and fix games, once a game is added to their database a more thorough check can be performed).
<a href="http://www.xbins.org/" target="_blank">http://www.xbins.org/</a> the web frontend to an FTP site dedicated to homebrew for the original xbox and 360, easyxbins is a nice tool to access the FTP site ( <a href="http://www.360mods.net/index.php?name=Downloads&file=details&id=29" target="_blank">http://www.360mods.net/index.php?name=Down...tails&id=29</a> )
We will leave info on how to flash xboxes for games and/or homebrew to other threads as it occasionally moves fast and is better left to them.

As mentioned in the first big paragraph the 360 supports region locking leaving it to developers and publishers to choose what is done (other than German releases what will be done is very unpredictable).
Those without a homebrew enabled 360 (even then it takes a bit of effort) will find region locking is not able to be bypassed on the 360. There is no great worry unless you are sporting a Japanese 360 (English language games are often region locked out and Japanese xbox games can take months to appear) as game releases usually fall very close together region wise these days. Close together means usually within a week and this still usually means before street dates in respective countries.
It has not come up here but it has in other places; region free is region free and it does not matter what territory the game that was ripped comes from so if there is a region free NTSC sourced release and you are in a PAL country do not wait on a PAL release unless you are waiting for a given language as it will not happen (and if it does scene rules tend to mean the release is nuked), similarly we are going to shift to just stating the regions a game is locked to rather than sources to try and eliminate some confusion unless it is unknown at the time of posting.
There are four regions as far as the 360 is concerned being Japan (NTSC-J), USA (NTSC-U), Europe (PAL) and China (NTSC-C), Australia counts as PAL and anyone anywhere else in the world will probably have an imported 360 so I will leave that to the owners to figure out. China and Japan usually overlap along with the rest of Asia but not always (there are not all that many Chinese releases anyhow).

As mentioned there is now a homebrew method that works on new consoles (previous ones would only work on consoles without HDMI) provided you have not done the August 11th 2009 update or any subsequent ones. Many versions of Xell (the homebrew loader) have now been compiled so most 360 models are now hackable and the rest should fall shortly.

There are two main options being considered:
1) Flashing a different region code- unless you have a dual nand chip (one region on each) this is a fairly long winded process but it does work.
If you can ignore the text speak xbox scene has a guide (we suggest you use it as a rough guide to understand what is going on):
<a href="http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=693753" target="_blank">http://forums.xbox-scene.com/index.php?showtopic=693753</a>
If you should manage to have your motherboard/cpu key and provided you do not downgrade then you should even be able to do it on a post august the 11th xbox, this is probably a very small subset of people but if you were hanging on with the intention of doing this sort of thing you might be in luck.
Chip development (NAND chips this is) is also progressing once again.

2) A "rebooter" app- nothing has yet been tried with this newest iteration of the homebrew exploit (a much older incomplete version exists) but the general idea is to (soft) reboot into a custom kernel/similar which handily ignores things like region checking.
These are both either at a very early stage in development, for earlier versions of the 360 or far from a simple end user hack.

A handful of 360 homebrew sites and guides exist (our own forums are also filled with knowledgeable people too) so for the curious
<a href="http://www.free60.org/wiki/Main_Page" target="_blank">Free60 (the base of the current homebrew work)</a>
<a href="http://www.eurasia.nu/wiki/index.php?pagename=Free60JtagHack" target="_blank">Euraisa writeup of the new hack and how it works</a>
<a href="http://www.xboxhacker.net" target="_blank">Xboxhacker.net (forums frequented by the Free60 crew and many others)</a>
Any discussion on those sites will be of a highly technical nature and a similar level of knowledge/ability is expected of you if you decide to join in.
