    Gaming How To Play AP2.5 Games Without LT + (All Drives)

    Ok, I updated to 2.0.12611.0, the latest version from January 19th isn't on that link FAST posted, and the official MS site http://www.xbox.com/en-US/Support/UpdateSteps only seems to go as far as 9199. AC:B still won't read, I've tried a version that wasn't patched for ap2.5 using abgx360 and...

    Gaming How To Play AP2.5 Games Without LT + (All Drives)

    Thanks, it's an old actual Samsung that's still chugging along, miraculously If I update the dash, can I just use the official MS update then, instead of this workaround? Can I also skip updating my FW as well? My 360 is flagged for a ban, so I'm just interested in a FW that's the simplest to...

    Gaming How To Play AP2.5 Games Without LT + (All Drives)

    I have an old Samsung ms25 running a pretty old version of ixtreme (something like 1.4 or 1.5 or 1.6, it doesn't require wave-patching or using the activate disc). I thought that Samsung drives didn't have ap25 checks, but AC:B doesn't seem to work for me. Do I need to upgrade my FW?

    Gaming About to Flash My 360

    What kind of non-stealth firmware would you suggest? I've got a flagged console and avoiding all the future wave 5,6,etc. problems would be nice.

    Gaming 360 HDD Hack

    My bad, I meant to say that my console was FLAGGED for banning, not actually banned yet. So I'm still good to go on installing games to the HDD, the primary reason I'm looking to upgrade. I'd thought that the higher RPM would allow for faster level loading, texture loading, etc., but I didn't...

    Gaming 360 HDD Hack

    I've been thinking about upgrading the HDD on my newly banned 360 using HddHackr. It seems to be compatible with both WD Scorpio Blue and Black drives. Since the Scorpio Black drives have a higher RPM, will I see a performance gain if I use one of those over a Scorpio Blue, or does the 360 make...

    Gaming WARNING: Ban wave has started, STAY AWAY FROM LIVE!

    Just to add my 2 cents, I had the 54420 error and a call-in told me that my console has been flagged, so I guess that makes me a statistic. If anyone's interested, I had a samsung from 2005 or so, used ixtreme 1.4, then 1.6, then 1.61 just recently. Never played any pre-releases or non-scene...

    Gaming Confirmed....the 4th Wave is Upon Us

    So does this mean that from now on, whenever a dashboard update comes out, we will need to contend with a new wave a few months down the line? I'm just thinking about the impending update with twitter/facebook/whatever, and wondering if we're going to have to go through all this again in Feb/March

    Gaming Which of these games do you think is the most fun?

    I'm sure you mean Red Alert 3, not 2, but at the same time, Red Alert 2 is by far the most fun out of any game on that list

    Gaming Resident_Evil_5_RF_XBOX360-KFC

    Someone asked earlier if this release was censored, but no one was sure. Now that you guys have played it, do you know if it is or not? In RE4, they censored some versions by editing out decapitations from the chainsaw guy, among other things. Just thought I'd put that out there so someone...

    Gaming Left For Dead DLC --- FREE FOR PC & 360!!

    Awesome that it will be free, but makes me wonder why they can't do the same for the TF2 updates

    Street_Fighter_IV_RF_XBOX360-KFC

    IIRC, the ban wave from a few months ago got many people running the latest ixtreme and stealthed games, and the trend seemed to be that they had been playing games before their release dates. These were the games that were all of a sudden leaked *way* before their release dates, I think one was...

    My Live time is almost up, and I was wondering, does anybody here have a good experience or feedback on any American Ebay sellers?

    Gaming what are you playing?

    Fable 2 and Gears 2. Fable 2 is a bit of a disappointment though. It feels like a shinier Fable 1, I expected more considering it's been 4 years since the original and a console jump. I also just saw a SS of the original to remind myself what it was like. Why did they get rid of the mini-map...
