  I love how the more security these companies try to layer on, the more hackers will be determined to break it all.

  I remember finding a guy on Craigslist who modded 360s. I went to his shady apartment with my 360 in tow and he modded it for me. I noticed he was downloading multiple different games at multiple gbps. This was in 2007. The dude claimed he had a modded router or something. Shit was crazy. Good times

  Did you know that when Microsoft released the update for ap25 (unique console disc checks) it actually didn&apos;t work on the original hitatchi dvd drives since their firmware size was too small to add the feature. Anyone with an hitatchi from that point on had a permanent dvd drive mod. Also after a point Microsoft tried to make ap25 checks so advanced and complicated that actually legit consoles with old drives and lasers would fail the tests and get flagged for ban. Microsoft actually banned a ton of legit consoles, and then later undid these bands as well as gave these users free xbox live. From that point on Microsoft stopped banning users for the ap25 check failure flags and ultimately screwed themselves over in the cat and mouse game

  Commodore4Eva is a mad lad, wonder why Microsoft didn&apos;t hire him if he was so good at cracking security flaws
