Back up games won't play!


Recommended Posts

Okay, I broke a copy of Halo 3 2 weeks ago and decided not to buy another copy. I got a great idea from my co-worker, back up my 360 games! Well I spent the money on the DL Discs and have copied only a few of my games. None of them work! Why is that? And how can I fix my 360 so that they do play. I would rather risk those back-ups than risk my retail copies.

Thanks!

Yeah you can't just make a copy of a game and expect it to work.

It's not going to work unless you mod the console. Which is illegal, and it gets you banned from Xbox live.

Just take care of your games. Invest in a DVD stack. :p

Actually it isnt illegal at all, but it will get you banned from live because its against the terms of service.

Modding is not illegal, pirating is.

It's illegal to make copies of your games. It says it on every Microsoft disc. :p 'Do not make illegal copies of this disc'.

People seem to think making one backup copy of a game you own is perfectly legal, but it isn't. :p

But as for modding, I don't really know - but the only way to make use of it is to make illegal copies of discs... So if you've modded your console, no doubt you'd do something illegal on it.

This sort of topic isn't allowed at Neowin. Even if your intentions truly do not include piracy, this strays far too close to the topic and it will basically be the same in the end.
