But no home brew.... Crying or Very sad

I'm waiting for a friend of mine to give me his old 360 sense its got error code 0102 untreatable error. Going to flash it once i get the sata pci card, Sometimes i wonder if i shouldn't open the game i buy.

allow the option to keep your games in store condition.

Yup, the majority of my games are scratched to hell, and i always keep them in the case. A few dont work anymore they are that badly scratched.

Time to get them resurfaced, 2 to 3 dollar job per disk unless you got the game from that same store that your getting them resurfaced at game crazy would be the better bet

New games like MLB 2009 and Tom Clancy’s H.A.W.X. don’t boot from recordable discs on Xbox 360s with modified stealth firmwares. The reason in short: these games include the NXE dashboard update inside the video partition of the disc. The newer ’stealth’ iXtreme firmwares check the crc of the video partition and if it doesn’t match ‘wave1′ or ‘wave2′ it will refuse to boot the disc. This new video partition that includes the NXE dashboard upgrade is ‘wave 3′ and support will have to be added for it in the iXtreme firmwares.

Older non-stealth firmwares do not check the video partition, so these will probably boot the discs, but it’s unsafe for Live Play, to use these firmwares on any Xbox360 you also want to connect to LIVE, as it can/will get you banned.

C4eva and his team are already working on a new iXtreme version for all drive versions. iXtreme v1.51 will probably include full ‘wave3′ support (including for Hitachi drives). v1.6 is planned for later with 0800 dumping for all drives as well! There are no deadlines for the release, it’ll be out when it’s ready and tested, so please don’t ask… It shouldn’t take too long.
