Hacker Team Releases First 360 ISO

Posted by Zonk on from the microsoft-must-be-so-proud dept.

surefooted1 writes "Xbox-scene.com has a brief story on the first Xbox 360 game dump here. A full dump of the game 'Condemed' has been released. From the article: 'The PI group released Xbox 360 game ISOs today. Note that downloading such releases is illegal and you can't do anything with them yet (they will not boot on your Xbox 360). You can find the NFO of one of their releases here. They also released an open-source tool to extract these releases (basicly it's an 'x360-ISO extractor') so you can check out the files in the image. It will NOT work on original discs as a PC DVD-ROM can't read those.'"

    which part of "a PC DVD-ROM can't read those[original discs]" was hard for you to comprehend?

    So, the xbox DVDs are broken in that "nahnah, you need special firmware to jump across this intentional break" way.

    Do they carry the DVD logo? Are these things DVDs or not?

    Yeah, it might look like nitpicking, but standards and interoperability are crucial to an info-age society.

    Shh, he's insulting Microsoft. All facts mean nothing as long as you are insulting Microsoft. It's in the agreement of Slashdot somewhere.
