360 moding
#1
THis was definately the great quest with some of the earlier systems and could be done with some of them. I was just browsing some of the jap import 360 games and started wondering if there is a tech mod of some sort that will allow a region 1 X-Box 360 to play import 360 games? Maybe one of them urban legend things but worth asking

Currently right now there is only DVD-drive firmware mods that allow you to play burned discs of games and such. And alot of providers are providing easy and cheap mods for this.. (Early in you had to make sure you were loading the proper one with the proper version etc etc. ) but the mods are making it automatic.. But there is no full scale mods like for the original Xbox.

The 360 itself is region free but some of the game companies region code their games and there is no way around this yet. In the end its all up to the game makers.

Seems silly for the game companies themselves to region encode them... that's like saying "Hey you! Stop that. We don't like money. Ya that's right, put the credit card away and slowly walk away from your computer."

It sucks doesn't it! People telling us what we can buy and when we can buy it...

I'm sure if the poster looks, they'll be able to find out if the game they're looking at is region coded or not, Microsoft themselves encouragew companies not to do it... But then they also encouraged it with the X-box...

http://www.team-underdog.com/ this site might be usfull to you, it is the homepage of the 360 mod chip team, they have links to were it can be bought, from what ive seen its about 50 bucks and is a "smart" chip, meaning it will be turned off when there is no need for it so you dont have to give up xbox live, other fun info can be viewed at www.xbox360-hacks.com
It is better to sit and be thought a fool, then to speak and be proven out right
