    Default Xbox questions

    So I have another Xbox on the way to mod again(I got rid of mine a few years back as at the time I wasn't using it). So, I need to know a couple of things:

    -Since I prefer redumps(and checking them to see if they match up with redump.org), where can I get redumps of Xbox games?
    -Since PS2 ISO's are on the main site, how come Xbox titles aren't? I know there was a server crash, but I thought they'd be up by now, especially considering that the system's been dead for five years now....

    Wrong section so I shall move it

    For me re-dump have too many missing games

    Personally I went with scene releases that also have games missing though not half as much, whats missing from scene is missing from re-dump

    Only problem with either is that not all games run from HDD and not all games have fixes either

    Pure unaltered dumps is all well and good but some games will need fixes to make them run afterwards, actually can only think of one game being PSO that needs to be modded to be playable without a live account that you can obviously no longer get

    I would second Xbox dumps in general though

    Some stuff was difficult to find even back when more people were sharing games on this platform.
    Still Life is an example of an Xbox title that took me a while to get...and then it was a broken US version (from memory I think it froze at a certain point in the game).
    I came across a used PAL retail copy at the local EB when they were clearing out Xbox games dirt cheap too.

    If my upload speed was better I'd share some stuff, but maybe that might change in the future

    For the time being the only thing I can suggest is trial and error by getting games from any place you can (ddl/torrent).
    Ftp so you don't waste discs.

    Just curious, are you going to hard or softmod it?

    My trusty softmod kit. With my Copy of Agent Under Fire and my 8MB memory card with Krayzie Save. I've modded a TON of Xboxes with this thing.
