A group of hackers claim that they have found a way to bypass Microsoft security and run backed-up games on an XBox 360.
According to the group, any owner of an X360 with a Toshiba-Samsung drive is able to rewrite the firmware so that they can play copied games.
The hack, released by a group calling themselves Xtreme, is rather complicated to install and involves opening your XBox 360, reconnecting your drive to a PC, extracting information from your drive, re-writing the hacked firmware to include your drive's information and re-writing your firmware. The process is complicated and most XBox 360 owners are unlikely to risk the well-being of their console in order to test this attempt. Owners of an XBox 360 with a DVD drive made by LG cannot apply this hack.
Ive completed the Hack,but backing up your games,is a long winded process in which it takes alot of man hours to do.Im not keen on the process involved and Im sure a easy fix will be introduced shortly.

How exactly is backing up the games done, and what would a fix involve?

Sam have a look at this tutorial and it will explain.
Wow, so thats actualy using the 360 disc in your normal DVD-Drive; could this mean with som kind of software; you could play 360 games on your PC?
Quote:
...click ok and remove the disc from the drive and play on a 360 with the xtreme firmware!
If some sort of firmware could be made in to .exe software or an emulator; maybe 360 games, with the 360 controller that is compatable with Windows Vista, could be playable on your PC?
