Just thought I'd post a little notice that the XBOX Live Arcade game has XBE_MEDIA_CD flagged XBE's. Therefore, you can burn the entire image to a CD and a RETAIL, UNMODDED xbox will boot the backup. You may ask why I am posting this in the live section? Well, because you can use the backup on live; seeing as how your in a retail state.. tongue.gif

Enjoy.

They probably intended it to be pirated, as you have to pay to download the individual games.

HEHE, that's a good theory. Never thought about that. It only cost 4.99 for disc from MS.

Indeed (plus it ensures the dashboard's the XBL compatible version) which is why I included "bait" in the subject, of the original post about it (linked below) eh...

Hmm, X L Arcade "bait"?, (CD media type .xbe's!)

Yah, it's not everday MS signs CD flagged XBE's. I'd imagine it was a scheme to get more people to purchase the content.

Let's hope they fucked up and left  some holes for us to play with.
