Yea, because we all know how long you've been on this site reflects your knowledge of console modding.


Actualy it does noober... Respect your members! I cant wait till i see your next question in here....
LOL, I've been modding consoles for five years now. I used to run a little business modding consoles and selling burned games. The only help I need on here is to sporadically check on how many retards are getting banned, or when a new wave is being introduced. I see 4th grade English class was a little too much for you, eh?


Righttttttt, everyone all of a sudden owns stores. Please dude, dont act up in here, your a noob and youve been acting like one lately, so all im saying is to respect the upper members in here mr business man.. ps. its hillarious how u researched my background to see what other retards have said about me, hence the 5th grade comment.
LMAO, I modded PS2's and Xbox's locally and sold PS2 and Xbox games online for two years. When I turned 18, I stopped doing it. I have no respect for you at all. I have no idea who you are, you try to act like because you post more you are better than everyone else, and to top it all off, your grammar usage screams 13 year old immature kid.
So you were performing highly illegal operations as a minor, good for you! Just because you modded a few PS2's for your teenage friends doesn't mean you are an xbox 360 expert.

Now, can we get back to the topic at hand?
No problem ;) I guess its safe to say this ban is over. I havent seen any new noobs in here crying with their diatribes over being banned. A big thanks to all the posters who shared their information and knowledge on how not to get banned throughtout the past! Thanks to you guys i havent been banned since!

Another haughty "high ranking" member of this site. I remember back when started modding I came to this site and the people here were more than generous in answering questions for "noobers". IDK if most of those members left or what, but this is just sad. I've also flashed a couple of 360's, BTW. Just for friends and family, but I guess because I don't post 50 times a day I am a Newbie.

Getting on topic, stay smart and you won't get banned, pretty simple. Everyone who says they never played an unverified or unstealthed game or played a game early is probably lying. If someone truly got banned and they went through every precaution, then maybe MS is finally starting to get a clue.

Just as a point of interest, some people are saying they are rechecking their ODST, NFS Shift and Brutal Legend games with ABGX, and they are failing.

Is anyone who's banned rechecking their disks?

I've just rechecked those 3 games out of interest and all 3 verify perfectly when checked from disc, as they should, so nothing has changed in the abgx360 database. If the ISO verified and the burn does not, then it's probably down to a bad burn or deterioration of the media (the latter being highly doubtful after such a short time though) causing data corruption.

I would imagine that a 360 DVD drive that's on the way out would report similar issues though, or even an original disc that's badly scratched, so I would be highly sceptical over MS using this as criteria for a ban. Even if your theory is valid, there is nothing special about those 3 games in particular because they all check out for me and some people that haven't played any of those games have been banned, so it would apply to any burned game.
From what I gather, some scene releases don't have a verified match in ABGX. Examples: SF4 - KFC, Halo ODST - AllStars, NFS Shift - PhaseZero, Fight Night Round 4 - CCCLX, Red Faction: Gorilla - Spare. So if you didn't fix them before burning, they will fail. Then you wonder if that release simply isn't in the ABGX database, or if ABGX is fixing them incorrectly. What's the chances that the release groups released bad images after all.

I encourage all who have been banned to recheck all of their disks.

My drive samsung ms28 fw 1.6

If your not on M$ list of banned then you'll be fine after the update! Think about how you've dealt with stealthing your games in the past and then decide whether updating or not. Weigh out your options regarding your dvd drive problems. But if you believe youve been perfect with the stealthing steps then go for it!

How can ABGX fix games incorrectly ??
So if a SHift version is on ABGX verified and checked,and I have another Shift, will ABG fix my shift with the stealth patch one available online...So that would be incorrectly ??

Please advice,
thanks,

I think that you only need to read a couple of goyankees posts to see what sort of person he is. Arrogant and aggressive. The sort of person that you wouldn't want to know in real life. Infact, the sort of person that is so low down the pecking order in his life outside of the internet that he feels the need to come on line and demand respect from people who registered to a forum after he did to make himself feel better. He lacks self esteem. It's a shame really.

He's also a "noob" as far as I'm concerned, but I'm not about to chastise him for that as, or try to belittle him for joining a message board a whole 5 years after I did as we all have to start somewhere ;)

Just ignore him.

I dunno, after being banned once, it occurred to me that I really don't care anymore! Like seriously, Achievements are the last thing that I could care about. And if it all goes south, I still got my PS3, which I'm happy with.

But thanks for the respect!
