Question About Flashing
« on: October 06, 2007, 06:35:00 AM »

I'm considering buying a 360 (core or premium not sure which one yet) and flashing it.

I already have a PS3 (which I got on release) and now wish I had got a 360 instead.

But, because I can afford to buy the 360 and buy games for it, I'm thinking of flashing..

Basically, I have a couple of questions..

1) If i had a flashed console is going online out of the question with a backed up game?

2) If i had a flashed console, but went online with a real copy of the game would that be ok?

3) what advantages do a flashed premium have over a flashed core?

thanks.

1) Going online with backups works just fine with the latest iXtreme firmware, but there's always a risk that something new will come along from MS.

2) Going online with originals is safer, but there are still risks.

3) The advantages only have to do with the obvious extras (HDMI, wireless, hard drive, headset) and not anything to do with modding.
