I have encountered an xbox recently..

It simply refused to load my SC1 and MA1 which I had previously used to do gamesave/xbe exploits..

The 2 games loaded fine on my old xbox , but it gave an error saying to bring the xbox for servicing at MS.


Could there be some dash updates which totally prevented these exploitable discs from loading?

any threads already here on  this?

more than likely the games were patch thru downloaded updates.
delete the gamesaves... and retransfer them.

[farbird]

I have got bad news for all..


even without the gamesaves, the game refused to load..
and it is not a dvd rom issue, all other original games work fine..

I have got about 4 copies of MA1 and 3 copies of SC1...
none worked...


sigh..

"They" have gotten smart

probably some other problem like a faulty action replay card.

[farbird]

The gamesave uploaded to the box via my xbox memory card was the MA gamesave..

even without the SC1 gamesave uploaded, the xbox refused to load the SC1 game..


pity i didnt actually take note of the dash version.

I will try to contact my friend again

sound to me if either the xbox or the discs are a big piece of crap.

Krayzie..

Dun mean to offend... just curious.

Uhm yeah.....I find that very difficult to believe. The flaws are inside the games. This is not fixable through new kernels (which aren't even reported existing) and certainly not through dashupdates (which are not reported existing also).

Also it makes absolutely no sense the game doesn't even load without an exploited gamesave. Like they would stop people playing certain games just because some people like to mod their xboxes.


Let me ask you: Is it dificult to believe the games not loading have another cause than imeditately asuming MS all of the sudden have a magical way of sensing there is a faulty save present and then stops functioning properly?

[kingroach]

They can always be smart but its too late for that.. MS already built their last batch of xbox's and most of them are shipped.. you cannt even order xbox from bestbuy since all of them are sold out.. its highly unlikely for MS to redo the motherboard when they are trying to produce as much xbox 360 possible..

[farbird]

my gut feel is that thru their latest dash update , they prevent these exploitable games from loading.... prompting the msg on the screen to ask the user to call for service...

upon which, they will recall the game and give an updated version [ collectors edition aka non exploitable SC1 or MA1 ]


A wild guess..

[big ben bullet]

farbird... believe what you may... but don't expect us to believe you without some serious tests and arguments

you can start by answering kingroach's question:

what is the manufacturing date / serial / dashboard version / kernel version of the xbox?

Again a dashupdate has no effect whatsoever on what games to and not to load. The dashboard is completely bypassed when a game is coldbooted.

Shouldn't this (and other threads related to MA/SC/007 installers) be moved from this forum to the linked one instead?

Xbox-Scene Online Web Community > No-Modchip Hacks (exploits) > GaySlave Exploitation

(Btw, fwiw, would an Xbox with an incompatible region setting behave the way the poster described?)
