Yes Cloud a guy in my local can do it. But only to play backups smileys/smiley2.gif
it will void your warranty but its not illegal to mod the console
My 360 pisses me of,
It claimed fifa of me and need for speed. Did anyone know that if you knock an 360 while it's playing a game it totally ruins the disc. smileys/sad.gif 80 quid in games it's cost me so far.

360's cannot be chipped. Impossible coz there aren't any mod chips available..no one has cracked the 360's security.
playing 'backups' isn't my main purpose for chipping my box

Are you sure thats not just your 360? smileys/smiley24.gif
Depends on how hard you knock it! Same will happen to a laptop DVD drive if it is shaken too vigourously! trust me.. smileys/smiley12.gif

Yea thats because the disc's get crappy scratches on them (really small in the middle).. complete bollocks. My fifa and need for speed wont even load up. Says error with disc and there fine smileys/sad.gif. I asked the guy and he said 'dont stand the 360 up in future and definatlly dont knock it. Should of told me when i bought it because it was to damn late.

It is possible. Tis not trust me. There is ALOT of speculation and rumour ("a friend told me that someone made a modchip for the 360 using the Enter button from an old Amstrad keyboard and a 2k resistor!" kind of rumours)

Sorry to say it mate but if he has done it then A) He would be the very first, beating teams of people making a living out of hacking game consoles B) Would be a millionaire
Anyway, so no one has installed their own mod chip into their box then?
if you say it cant be done then why are you asking :S... i dont get it.

TWICE?!?! smileys/smiley24.gif
You said it had ruined two games, surely you would have had to knock it over twice for that to happen? Didn't you learn the first time? unless you had two discs in at once..in which case I wouldn't be suprised if they are scratched
Can I make a suggestion? Turn your 360 so it is lying flat and not standing up on its side, or at least prop it up so it can't fall over. They are not designed to be 'knocked over' so I can understand why your discs are buggered
It did it when i knocked it walking past it as well Timmy, dont jump in and say im in the wrong! smileys/smiley17.gif.
Second time it was laid down and it was slighted nudge. Must of moved the console a whole 5 mm.

Not only that but you can play any region DVD's, DivX, Xvid, streaming media from the Net, Mp3, mp4, avi, ogg, you name it it can do it. All from a little chip smileys/smiley4.gif I saw the other day someone made a WiFi xbox!

really bout the second time? I would contact microsoft about that I really would. In the very least I would demand new games if not getting a replacement 360. What a bummer
Lot's of people have had similiar problems so it's not something im going to cry about hehe, either way ill sell it soon to make room for the ps3.

Are you crazy?? Yes get a ps3 but don't sell the 360..think of Halo 3 man!!
Oh btw sony announced that Ps3 will cost £330 for the basic package, and they are dropping the crap 'bananna' controller in favour of the more traditional shape
