Hello,

I have three questions.

First some background information. I already have a flashed XBOX 360 with iXtreme firmware with "Stealth." I think it's the iXtreme since I have a BenQ drive.

1) I've been reading that you need to also "stealth" the game as well. I use XBOX_ISO_HACKER for the Mac, and I don't think I've ever applied a stealth" to any of my games. Unless XBOX_ISO_HACKER does that for you when it "Hack" it using the program. Is it still required to "stealth" my games?

2) I know it's against the rules to post any usenet links. So I was wondering if I could send anyone a private message so I could get some help on using a really good usenet service to get games from. I currently use ItcyCats, and it's awesome, but sometimes the games don't work and it's sometimes in PAL format when I would like NTSC.

3) Assuming that I have the iXtreme flash applied to my XBOX 360, it is wise to update the firmware and update the "Stealth" that is applied with iXtreme Firmware as well?

Thanks in advance!

all the new ixtremes are stealth. I dont know about Mac but ABGX is recommended for checking/fixing the stealth of an iso. also for games try xbox360iso.com

Just incase someone is wondering it states in the rules linking to sites is allowed.

Case: Links to sites offering possibly pirated content (including torrent files and ed2k links). PERMITTED

I take this to mean not directly linking to the files themselves.

Is it wise to update the iXtreme as well? And since iXtreme already has the stealth patch, does the game need it as well?

Thanks!

Yes, update the firmware also as newer games will run if your using old firmware.

Cool. Thanks.

What usenet would would you suggest to getting the games. I've heard of GigaNews is pretty good, but to use it, I find of find confusing. Which is why I like ItcyCats.com because you can type in a search for whatever you're looking, click on it, download, and that's it. Any usenet like that but very popular since then it will have a wide range of application/games, etc?

Thanks!

It is always good to update to latest iXtreme firmware. As well you should be stealth checking the games also.

abgx360 is the most updated stealth checker out there. You can get the MAC version HERE.
