i bought an original copy of gears of war off a friend the other day and it wont play in my (modded) xbox360. this is strange as i have played original games in the past and my console can also play backed up games as well. when i go to load the game, a screen comes up saying "insert this disc in an xbox360 console" or something like that. also, when you are on the xbox dashboard and at the bottom it normally says something like "play game" but when the gears of war disc is inserted it says "Play DVD"

can anyone help with this?



Currently on my 7th PS3 and 4th Xbox, gotta love technology..

some games do that, gears especially, i think you need to update your firmware. what are you running right now?

hmmmm, i dont know what to tell you, you would need your original firmware to flash it, unless you could get your key from your current firmware, i dont see why you cant, just follow the tutorial to flash, and use "x360sam Xwhatever.bin orig.bin hacked.bin" and replace whatever with what you want to use and current with whatever the name of your current firmware is, just use "mtkflash r /m orig.bin" and keep that as your original firmware
