I need more speed! and room for the music i've dumped to disk, only got 32000 Blocks left now! anyone know how much is too much? before it affects the games your playing? may have to buy another XBOX! probably down to a ton by Xmas anyhow
You are soooooooooooooooo funny. I think I will stop greating my ball sack on a cheese grater and start following your jokes...
Go away you idiot.
I am so glad you bothered to do thatas I couldn't be bothered trying to convince the c*ck faced idiot otherwise.
1) Chipping your XBox is not illegal.
"Mod chips are considered illegal and the company reminds that the blocking of modified consoles is defined in the Xbox Live user agreement."
- Microsoft.
2) A chipped XBox can play XBox Live!, and with copied games if you must know. There are ways and means.
"Xbox Live may only be accessed with an unmodified, except for Microsoft authorized repairs and upgrades, Xbox video game console. Any attempt to disassemble, decompile, create derivative works of, reverse engineer, modify, further sublicense, distribute or use for other purposes either the hardware or software of this system is strictly prohibited. Microsoft may...retrieve information from the Xbox used to log on to Xbox Live as necessary to operate and protect the security of Xbox Live, and to enforce this Agreement."
- Microsoft.
"The newer mod chips...can already defeat any attempts by Microsoft to detect them, as they are firmware upgradeable via a PC parallel port"
- Tony Dalton-Richards, mod-chip enthusiast.
"Seeking an engineer charged with collecting, evaluating and conducting analysis of modification chips as part of security research on Xbox hardware and software. Will assist in designing hardware detection code fragments to be embedded in future versions of the product. Preference is given to those with...gaming hacking knowledge."
- Notice posted on Microsoft's hiring site.
3) Piracy is not killing the games industry.
