Take a look at TheSpecialist's opinions on the XH.net forums, for the first several pages of the thread he is a complete ass because he doesn't understand how it could work, and then says oh I guess I should take back my words on freaking page 8.

Seems like TS doesn't want people taking his thunder away. He's not a god, or even bunny, you know.

Considering how long it took The Specialist to do this, we're on the right track.

how long until xbox live sucks balls?

xbox live shouldn't be affected should it? since only unmodified, signed games will work with this method, there shouldn't be any hackers or anything. The only difference on xbox live will be more people online that couldn't arfford to play the game until now.

[celicagt1993]

the only reason i would want this is because i have 2 360's (when it comes out) that way my girl and i could play the same game without paying 100 so we both can play.

Excellent work Commodore. Well deserved respect.

[clogicgmather]

Can anyone confirm if this hack really will allow cheaters etc on live?

I actually stumbled across this on usenet a few days ago and thought it was just a replacement that's been posted forever now.

anyway, it came with .bin dumps of games like halo 2, gta, lotr, and mech assault.

And those asking, as of this writing, no its not on the "usual places"

the file name I have is: sdg605bv2.rar

thanks!!

[.:Dino:.]

This is great news. Hope to see a nice few testing this, i know i will be   .
Thanks commodore4eva for having the balls, however you must respect the specialists decision on not releasing. This is a lil more complicated and time consuming. You need to use dvd dual layers so the ss can be put on the 2nd layer. The ss is often game specific so you will need to do some extra work.

not sure how you guys missed that it was xbox 1  it says it right in the freakin title.

and only DVD9 disks work so go ahead and spends ass loads on dvd9 disks cuz its a waste.

the time and effort and the mod arent really a waste but the fact that it only works with dvd9 disks is a waste.
even games that are DVD5 have to be burnt to dvd9  so wtf is the point.

not only did you waste dvd's burning the backup to begin with now you have to redo them on a dvd 9 ?

come on commodore...   if the original disk was created on a dvd5 then there is no reason why a dvd9 should be needed.
insert the security code in the image and burn it.

whats the mentallity and reasoning behind burning a dvd9 disk of a dvd5 disk when the original code was never on a 2nd layer.   it was only on the first layer to begin with.

wicked nice hack and can be used to help out the hacking of the 360 but since most xbox 1 games are dvd5  .. ouch thats alot of money to spend on dvd9 disks....


and the bin files you guys downloaded from the usenets.. or bt or whatever..  is already old..  he stated clearly that he has updated things already.. so... bear that inmind as you go and fry your sammy drives just to test this out.

did you RTFA?

[mat989]

DL I hope X360 will not require those for the few DVD5 games I have!!!

[DynaMight]

Great work but I dont think it's ever gonna be anything more than a proof on concept on the original Xbox, the 360 version will be the biggy.

[sowa99]

Nice work. But if this work with one game (umm.. backup) it's one from useless hack

Anyway, it's possible to change firmware from xbox linux?

[SniperKilla]

Anger and I have just produced a working backup of Halo 2 NTSC, booting wonderfully on the firmware..

great work commo!

PS.. stan he actually was bashing this very firmware, calling the guy out on reasons it was impossible that it could work, then when he actually sat down and looked at it, 4 days later, and realized it just COULD work, alot of posts were removed/edited, and he apologized..
