Gaming Burned GoW to a Verbatim DVD+R DL and it gave me this message...

[XxOblivion77]

"To play this game, put it in a Xbox 360 console."

Huh?

 

[Joe88]

can we get a bit more details?

have you bunred games before and they worked?
what burning software are you using, ect...

 

[XxOblivion77]

Well, I actually burnt the game on a different brand but the disc was crap. I already did all the stealth checks and what not and it said it was okay. So I burnt the same .dvd file as last time onto this new disc and popped it in my 360 to get that message. I was burning with Imgburn, I'm running iXtreme 1.51 at 2.4x speed. I have no idea what's wrong.

Either A) the drive isn't flashed B) a bad burn or C) the drive isn't flashed with the newest firmware and the game is something brand new....like H.A.W.X., MLB 09, Guitar Hero Metallica, etc.

Do you know what firmware is on it? The newest is 1.51


*EDIT* Ok, you are running 1.51 so I will say B) a bad burn. Sometimes if it is a low quality disc or even just a glitch, you will get errors like that and it's just a junk disc that you can now have the pleasure of using as a coaster or a Frisbee.

See last post.

Should I just do it again? >_>

 

[stayingarmed]

Can I ask why you are running the firmware at such a slow speed? I don't really know anyone using anything lower than 8x and nobody I know has problems....just curious.

 

[XxOblivion77]

No that's what I burnt the disc at, the firmware is at 8x.

Its safer to burn at a lower speed, means less errors.

Also, do you have any other games that you burned? Do they work? If they don't you probably need to flash it again. If they do, probably a bad burn. I had an error of sorts when I burned GOW2.

 

[XxOblivion77]

And all you did was reburn it and it worked right?

I got two coasters because of it (The first one, and then my second attempt, same error.) I tried a different download and it worked like a charm.

Sounds like a crc error on the game or you have a non flashed 360 (or fucked up flash).

Use www.abgx.net to check that the dump you get is not bad/nuked.

I had this message once too - "to play this game, put it in an xbox 360" - from my xbox 360
