you can check the compatibility thread here.

With newest firmware, most burner will do if you use good quality media (verb), you can check the pinned, a lot of info there.

is there anyway to actually make it work wuth burnign 360 games? because i can buy Verb disks very cheap DL ones.

I have this Drive [LG-4160B], w/the A306 RPC-2 Auto-Reset Firmware (download it HERE:)

You do not need to worry about using Bitsetting, as the Drive will always default to DVD-ROM w/DL Media.
I have so far been able w/the help of a SH-D162C TS04 w/XB360 KREON V0.81 Firmware to rip and then burn the following, onto DVD+R DL Media (Ritek):

Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball 2
Rumble Roses XX
Gears of War
Enchanted Arms... and
The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion

Since I have the Hitachi (47DJ), in my XBOX360™, I'm not currently able to use Single Layer XBOX™ *.ISO's yet.
So I can not comment on plain old DVD-5 Rips, as I can not currently use 'em, the so long as you can get access to good quality rips (e.g. the SH-D162C w/XB360 KREON V0.81 or by other means), you should have no problems being able to reburn such rips w/your LG-4160B.

BTW: I highly recommend getting the SH-D162C and reflashing it w/the Kreon v0.81 Firmware, ~if you can get it~.
And use the XBOX Backup Creator Software for all of your XBOX360™ ripping, and burrning needs.
As you can use this Software to rip, and burn almost any Game in under an Hour.

So this firmware shoudl let em burn 360 games and even rip them?

Edit:I run the program and it says lookign for device then it just closes? any ideas

Are you talking about Windows not detecting the burner?  If so then I would check your jumper settings, make sure that the DMA is enabled on the drive.

No i want 2 know if there is a wat of burning 360 games with a Lg Gsa-4160b withotu always burning costas

Ok in case I haven't spelled it out ~clear enough~ for you.

YES you CAN use the LG-4160B to burn XBOX360™!!!
You can NOT use the LG-4160B to rip your XBOX/360™ Backups, so that'll leave you Two Options, One use a Samsung Drive in your XBOX360™, alas AFAIK: I don't think you can use the Hitachi on the XBOX360™ to Rip your Games, Two you get yourself a Samsung SH-D162C (DVD-ROM Drive), to read out (i.e. rip) , your Backups.

Now as for Software I've never tried using Nero™, I've tried Imageburn™ and ended up burning a Coaster, alas I sum that up to user error.
I've since went on to useing the "XBOX Backup Creator", and burned a few more Coasters, again due to Stupid User Errors.
Alas the Magic in XBC is it's simple setup and Two Button "Fire and Forget" ease of use.

For simple and easy XBOX™ and or XBOX360™ Backups, assuming that you have the means to use the SH-D162C or your XBOX360™ DVD ROM Drive to make Rips' with. (i.e. the Samsung Drive)
Use the XBOX Backup Creator, it's simply the single best Two Button "Fire and forget" Method to make XBOX/360™ Backups!

Given the overall simplicity of the "XBOX Backup Creator" (You should be able to find it on this Site), I don't know why anyone should want to use the 'WX' or ISO Buster™ Method(s), when the XBC can simply do it all?

Now as for how to burn other 'Questionable' Media, alas I can't be any help to you, but I'd imaginr Imageburn™ should work well enough.

Just some Small Tips:
1) Use DVD+R DL ~7.92Gib~ (i.e. DVD-9 Media), there may be mixed reports about DVD-R DL's but DVD+R DL are know to work almost 100% of the Time.

2) **Make sure your LG-4160B has the latest (w/or w/o RPC-2 Auto Reset), Firmware installed**
It's possible that if you have an earlier version of the Firmware that didn't support Bitsetting (or Auto Bitsetting), that the more current versions, do.
With the current Firmware (A306), the LG-4160B will Auto Booktype all DVD+R DL to DVD-ROM, so there's no need to try and force such a setting though Software. (i.e. Nero™).

3) The key to getting good Burns is to making sure you can make good rips, to that end I recommend you check out the XBOX Backup Creator.

Depending on how you approach this you may need to read more about the specific DVD ROM Drive Model you have and how to enable certain Modes (i.e.Samsung F800 or F900??), to enable you to unlock the Drive to make a successful rip.
Or again you should consider trying to pick up a really cheap Samsung SH-D162C (ca. €20.00(EUR)), at my local Computer Parts Shop, at that Price I'm seriously concidering trying to snap up the lot of 'em and placeing 'em all up on oBay for a nice little Profit.

And as someone who owns a SH-D162C I can telly you that there's no better way to rip your XBOX™ Games.

Alas this thought came to me only after replying to a entirely different Thread.
But did you ever take any of the appropriate steps to ensure that you could even use Backups in the first place?!

e.g. Did you ever reflash your XBOX360™ DVD-ROM with a Modified Firmware, so as to allow you to run Backups?!
