Hi, I am new to the console world (in fact don't own one at the moment) and I am thinking of buying a Xbox 360 since they have some nice deals here and you can get the console with 2 controllers and 4 games for 250 euros. Before I buy one however I would like to ask few questions and I hope it is not against the rules or has not been answered before.
1. I would like to know, is the sole reason for flashing your XBOX to play back ups or do you get other functionality not available on the original?
2. When flashed is it possible to play games of the hard drive instead of burning them?
3. Is it safe to play downloaded games offline only, and my originals online and what is the best method to do this?
And finally \is there a way to see if which drive I will have in the XBOX slim, since I see only certain drives are flashable? I am thinking between xbox 10th anniversary bundle or the starter pack if it makes any difference? Or should i look just for the games i like because there is no guaranteeing of the drive you are going to end up with?
Thnx
