I have been doing a bit of research on Halo 3 and have come across some rumors, I just need help with one of them...

Alright, my XBox 360 is moddified, and it is the Hitachi 78 version. The rumor I heard is that Halo 3 has been equipped with something or another that detects a modified system. Is this true, or even possible yet? I am just curious, because if so, I am going to flash back to my original firmware...

Thanks in advance...

Jack your date on your system up to about sept. 27 or something to be on the safe side.


There is no way for microsoft to tell that you have a hacked version of the game, the only thing they know, is if they scan your console, they can see that the firmware is not reading the original way it should be.


One of my previous consoles was banned from xbox live.

I agree. Who really knows what they have at their disposal to combat piracy on XBL? Only they really know for sure...gotta believe that they will try something big at Halo 3 launch or just after I would say.

Hey guys, I have a release of it... and When I try to burn the backup with xbox backup creator it says "write failed" after it tells me the file size expected is wrong. does anyone have pointers? I burned it with nero already, and its just coming up as a mixed media disk on my box...

I just flashed my firmware earlier tonight successfully, so any help would be appreciated.
