Intrepid Homoludens Posted July 11, 2004 I didn't know you could download Xbox games. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hermes Posted July 11, 2004 Well, you can. But it's piracy of course.... bittorrent is a kind of peer-to-peer network..... There must be some kind of anti-piracy protection in the x-box, but I expect someone has worked around it somehow...... they always do.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There must be some kind of anti-piracy protection in the x-box, but I expect someone has worked around it somehow...... they always do.... You've never heard of chipped X-boxes with Linux installs, using XB-Connect on their PC's instead of paying for X-box Live? You can get a big hard drive and save any game you want on it. People will do all of that, rent games for $3, put them on the HD, and never pay another dime for it. On the PC it works the same as any other console emulator, someone hacks the XB and gets the core program and then any X-box game can be played through the PC. It's been done with every console I can think of. The only one that I know of that is fairly safe from it is the Gamecube, because of the trouble and costs they went through to prevent it. Sometimes I wonder if it really did make a boost in their profit, by avoiding all of the piracy "losses" from people who may have never purchased the games even if they couldn't get them for free. Then again, I may be wrong, because the n64 and previous cartrige games are available by peer-to-peer networks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tabacco Posted July 12, 2004 Cherrish, We definitely don't allow warez requests on these forums. We have to maintain good relationships with developers, and having "Hey, where can I download some games?" threads all over our site really doesn't help that.

Unless of course, the developers developed for the spectrum or commoddooorrree in which case they would be flattered that we're stealing their 20 year old games...
