The new Xbox 360 software makes it able for people to dowload there games to there hard drive this will result to everyone buying a game putting it on there hard drive and then returning it saying dont like it want another one. They go back home and also dowload that one to there hard drive, how could they have been so blink not to see this would happen -_-'.

This was possible before 360 came out. You could get a special machine to copy PS, Xbox, gamecube etc games. Except theres one problem. Most stores wont allow you to return open games. However, you could get a 20 dollar game for 7 buy going to a renting place (Like BlockBuster) get it, download it, and return it.

haha Sama, when it copies them over you need the disc in whilst playing...copying them over just makes the game load way faster, but you still need the disc in. otherwise it wont work:P

I heard there was somehting like fortnightly disk checks, where it asks you insert the disk and then updates it or something.
I'm pretty sure microsoft is not stupid enough to let people do that.

Lol if you can do it without discs your xbox aint f*cked up, your just lucky. I would abuse that bug, glitch, update or whatever to HELL!!! Go, go to your nearest video game renting place and RENT ALOT OF GAMES!! You have to be dumb not to use this. Unless FBI can snatch you for this....which I dobt they can, I dont think they will even know your doing it or be able to track you.

My Xbox-360 f**ked it self when playing Halo 3, I was playing with my clan, Then suddenly I hear some strange noise. The disc was shattered into the Xbox-360, It was very unreliable. I am so glad I bought a Playstation 3 as a replacement. I don't really think Microsoft would be that stupid to do that though.

Sama, that's odd. Because Ive installed 3 games on My HDD and all of them ask me to insert the disk before I play them.
