BroChaos Veteran Posted October 23, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 23, 2003 i'm confused by the question. are you asking how you back up a game if it's too big for the hard drive? if so, you have to get a bigger hard drive, or buy the game...

LiGhTfast Posted October 23, 2003 Share Posted October 23, 2003 i'm confused by the question. are you asking how you back up a game if it's too big for the hard drive? if so, you have to get a bigger hard drive, or buy the game... I thought he mean't if its too big for a dvdr and you want to leave the hard drive alone? If thats the case go buy the game or maybe wait for those new dual layer dvd writers when they come out :) i don't use dvd disks, everything i want is a few clicks away. Games also load quicker from the hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

samg Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 ok people, i want one of these bad boys. but you have confused me alot :s I have seen a deal on gameplay for ?139.99 (includes Xbox, midtown madness 3 and Halo) (im from the UK so no american things) Now, i want to run the internet and be able to play music and videos etc.. (like a pc) what do i need to do this and how much does it cost? is it hard to do also? I also have a ADSL router, will the xbox plug stright into it or do i need something? Basically what do i need/have to pay to get :- Best Mod for the Xbox Linux (able to browse web, download, listen to mp3's etc) X Box Live. If i get one how easy is it to do all of it or is it hard ? im in IT support so i have a good knowledge about stuff but is it much different ? also if i was to put in a bigger HDD can it be anyone or a percific one, also does that need something speical too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagXK8 Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 I'm seriously thinking about getting a modded Xbox. I've read through most of this forum and I didn't see anything about being able to burn DVDs. Is it possible since you can burn Xbox DVD games?

BroChaos Veteran Posted October 27, 2003 Veteran Share Posted October 27, 2003 @sam get an xecuter 2.2 lite. if you are plugging into the router, you just need a regular cat5 ethernet cable. there are several versions of linux you can put on the xbox. you will have a switch to turn your xbox on or off, as long as it is off, you can use xbox live with no problems at all. @bentleygt the xbox doesn't burn anything...

o_87 Posted October 27, 2003 Share Posted October 27, 2003 I think his question was that if you can burn xbox games or not BroChaos. To answer the question, yes you can burn them, as long as you have a DVD Burner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
