Reason I ask is because I only buy games that I would play. And thats usualy 1 in a million.

Worth getting? Well the only good game out right now is dead rising or chrome hounds if you plan online. Other than that there really isn't much of a reason to spend so much money on it right now.
Yes its hacked, something about flashing the dvd drive with a new firmware. Apparently only works with the samsung drive and if the flashing fails, people say your xbox is pretty much useless from there on. |
Nope, there are versions of the "Xtreme" firmware hack available for both the Samsung and Hitachi drives now.
Its really not that hard and took me less than 10 mins to update my friends Xbox 360.
Connect Xbox (samsung or hitachi) DVD drive to Sata port on pc, download and copy current firmware "key" to clipboard, paste "key" into xtreme hacked firmware, flash dvd drive with Xtreme firmware that includes your unique "key", finished !
Downloaded about 20 games from newsgroups so far and all work fine (not tested on live yet though) and quite easy to rent 360 games here for under £2 and make "backup" copies using the hacked firmware.
