Cheers for the speedy reply Caveman Ive never networked it, would i be better connecting to router or with a crossover cable from pc. These games are already images on pc

I have never bother using the crossover route mate, i use a belkin gaming adapter as wireless bridge and it works a treat. My box is set up as an xmbc (excuter2) made by Frodo and his gang... It takes about 20mins to send over a 700mb file roughly...

Hi Folks,
When santa brings along our new 360......
if a friend loans us a valid shop bought disc to try, im wondering, is it possible to copy to the hard drive,return the disc and play the game from the hard drive - can this be done ?


thanks in advance

If im not mistaken i may be wrong as im aliitle out the loop tech wise.
But i gather:

d/l games - means downloaded games

bridge - means a network bridge between two devices.

I know a few people that use there old xboxs as just media centres to play movies off or through a neywork. But you can do that with 360. But im sure there are other options.

Load it up with the latest xbmc you can d/l it from h**p://t3ch.yi.se/ then grab yourself all the old emulators like snes, sega, arcade (mame).

Throw it on the network and then you have a fully functioning media player with all the games you could ever want.

I have 4 xboxes all over my house pain in the ass they dont play HD but hey thats what the HTPC (Home Theatre PC) is for ;)

are there any working xbox 360 tools? i see cxboxtool, but does that work for 360? and do you have to "mod" your xbox, and would that void your warranty.

sorry, im new to the community, hope this doesnt offend, just asking for help guys..
