XBOX Game Backups

[Apokarteron]

Is there a program with which I can create backups of my XBOX games (so they don't get scrached up as I use them)

 

[jancz3rt]

Lol

Are you sure about the backups being only for you?. Well anyway, I think that you can use a normal burner to back them up, but I may be wrong. However, I think that in order to use those backups, the X-BOX would have to have a chip mod or something.

I've heard about the mod-chip but I don't want to get into that buisness, and yes it's for me.

I suggest just using D-Skins
http://www.d-skin.com/home.html

Its a cover for your CD's that you put on, and that you can keep on while playing, so its not the gay ikind where yo uhave to put on and off each time you use it. Then if the D-Skin ever gets scratched you just put a new d-skin on it and it works like new.(well as long as it wasn't scratched before you put it on)

lol... you know, i got caught up in the new technology thing and completely blanked that he was on about an xbox not an xbox360.
i suppose its another reason why companies should be thinking up original names when they make consoles. sorry guys

yea u do have to mod you xbox. I currently have modded mine. You dont neccisarily have to hard mod it, You can soft mod it by replacing the bios. Check out XboxScene.com

I already have the "soft" mod ONLY for playing backups. But now I need a program for backuping my games

 

[Motoxrdude]

The way i make mine is copy a game to my xbox hard drive, than use FlashXp and copy the game files to my computer then i burn it with an iso burner

You mean by installing the mod with software?

Those are nice but also a little bit expensive

i would think of around $1 to protect a ~$50 game cheap

Exactly and you can get 100 pacts and 50 packs annd 20 packs and 5 pacts, they are cheaper per item the hihger you go up, the 100pack is 50$, so thats 50cents per game

Oh i missed that. I didnt go to the website because i thought about buying them so i looked around and they only had 5 packs so i thought they only made 5 packs. My bad. I guess if you spend $500 in games $50 is a small price to pay to protect them. i just thought $1.50 was a bit steep for a piece of plastic. My bad. Also i dont spend $50 on games. I usually wait till they come down to $20. Sorry
