that nfo doesn't make any sence, u used german on-line translator or something?


i didnt, the leaker did, thats why it says "English: (google translation)"

Here's the german text

XBOX360 HDD Hack:
Die in den USA heimischen Jungs, von BlueB, arbeiten fleißig daran, die angekündigte Festplatteninstallation vor MS in den Release zu schicken.
Dies wird mit Hilfe einer zu 99% nachgebauten Leak-Konsole realisiert, welche aus nachempfundenen Konsolenkomponenten besteht, die der 360 angeblich, auf das Haar gleichen sollen.
Als System dient ein OS, welches auf der Ping 17 Struktur basiert.
Viel interessanter ist aber die Tatsache, das als "kleines Nebenprojekt" ein funktionierender Ps3 Emulator zur Debatte stand, deren Funktionialität, aufgrund eines neuen Ping 17 Hacks realisiert wurde.
Zurzeit laufen die Releasetitel Motor Storm und F1, in der Demo Version via DVD auch auf der 360.
Doch zu aller Verwunderung mit einer 9% höheren Framerate als auf der hauseigenen Konsole.
Ob dieser Umstand bloßer Zufall oder aufgrund der schnelleren Datenübertragung der DVD, ein technischer Vorteil ist, werden weitere Tests erbringen.
Wir bleiben natürlich dran und werden euch über neuste Ergebnisse schnellst möglich informieren.
Sollte jemals ein funktionierender Ps3-Emulator, für die 360 erscheinen wäre dies ein tiefer, jedoch auch illegaler Schlag, welcher Sony schlimmer denn je, in den Exklusivitätsmangel reißen würde.
Up to Date gibt es aber nur eine Hand voll Ps3 Spiele, die auf eine DVD DL passen würden und somit die geplante Festplatteninstallation, als Mittel zum Zweck, erwartet wird.
Ausstehendes Problem wäre zudem die Installation des Ping 17 OS auf eine Org. Xbox 360, die aufgrund MSs Sicherheitsmaßnahmen noch völlig in den Sternen steht und BlueB vor neue Aufgaben stellt.
Wir warten gespannt auf neue Informationen von Übersee und hoffen auf einen sicheren Release von MGS4 und Co.

The German text is about a homebrew console OS that runs on a machine that is 99% identical to the X360 and playsX360 games from a HDD. Whether it will run on a regular X360 is unclear due to the console's strict protection. It also claims that this homebrew X360 contains a PS3 amulator that plays Motorstorm with a higher framerate than the PS3.

Sound like bullshit to me.

Nope, not a chance in hell. Just as there's no way a PS3 could emulate a 360.

brewskybeer you can use either the first dashboard or the new one. You dont need to change if you dont want to.

someone managed to instal the new dashboard by using infectus:

http://xhavok87.wordpress.com/2008/07/26/xbox-360-fall-dashboard-08-leaked/

It has finally been done but NOTE, only modded systems at this point are able to do the install. The process is quite easy if you cannot figure it out but will not be released at this time. A fellow member here by the name of xg4m3r has discovered a path for modded consoles to install the update as you can see in the video above. Like I said in update 8 we are still working on this process to see if we can manage anything on retail consoles. We are not releasing anything at this time but more news is to come soon. Enjoy for tonight because tomorrow should be a whole other day! See you soon!

NOTE: Your Xbox 360 NEEDS to have the Infectus 2 Chip in the system for this work. Not just a modded FW hack the chip is required also. Sorry for the confusion!

with that HD install thingy Microshit might implent a protection like starforce, can't be cloned on DVD
if it is that sort of protection you can say goodbye to free games for the x360.

i was thinking of something similar..

because we know the only way to detect a hacked 360 is via the media, and maybe the disc responses etc are to hit and miss to get an accurate reading to inforce a ban without banning a legit person, as some drives perform better than others , and with general wear of the laser etc

so this maybe a way of detecting backups more accurately?

No such thing because installing is optional, then the only thing that you would need to do to in order to bypass such a protection is not to install a game.

How many dickheads will they ban before knowlegde is spread ? a lot! and even without HD install its possible to implent a protection like SF even on xbox 360 without harddisk that small driver can be stored somewhere else in xbox 360...its possible. I am not sure why Microshit is not talking to starforce guys to proud...? probably Microshit wants to do it themselves.

It's September but still waiting.. Or does this dash update come exactly on the first day of Fall (Sept 22)?

Can't play GTA4 anymore. If theres just one slight scratch on the disc, it gives unreadable disc error after a few minutes of playing. I NEED this HDD Install feature now!!!!!!!!!! Crying or Very sad
