Just wondering is it safe to play a backed up game installed on the Xbox 360 HDD. I.would ensure that the copy has been run through Abgx and checks out 100% of course ??

Your never 100% safe if you have flashed your DVD drive, its about as safe as playing from the disk I suppose.

Just got into the habit of playing my current games from HD, as it loads slightly quicker and is quieter. And it saves the 360 hard work as well lol.....

Alot of ppl think it's safer because the disk drive with modded firmware only has to be used to verify that the game is in the tray.

Surely it's still subject to the same checks.

You would think so, I mean it does have to read the full disk at least once.
