Using leaked NXE will disconnect you from Live until November 19thDVDBack23 @ Nov 03, 2008 04:05 | 8 comments
However, like most media content, the NXE has been leaked online and has seen thousands of downloads already. If you download it though hoping to be the first person on your block to do so, you are in for an unwanted surprise though. Any user trying to log into Xbox Live while running the leaked NXE will be blocked from XBL until November 19th.
Although unconfirmed, you also run the risk of being blocked from XBL permanently, in the same boat as users using flashed firmwares and copied games.
If you are really that excited for NXE, I think it pays to wait the almost three weeks for it. |

Comment by: Oner (Nov 03, 2008 15:10) @ Mik3h ~ That is correct. Not banned, just loss of connection to LIVE! until November 19th. I myself have the NXE files and have been contemplating installation as I refuse to pay for LIVE! anyway and haven't used my 360 in at least 6 months so the issue of connection wouldn't bother/change anything.

Comment by: DVDBack23 (Nov 03, 2008 15:23) Fair enough, Mike and Oner, I've edited the article. Although, not being able to get on XBL is pretty much the same as being banned :) |

Comment by: Mik3h (Nov 03, 2008 20:28) That's true, one of the main reasons i still my Xbox is because of Live. Still, good article, it serves as a head's-up to anyone considering the premature upgrade. I was considering it, but decided against it. Those who are curious about ripping games to the HDD and playing them may be disappointed, it still requires the disc in the console at all times. It does however speed up loading times and reduces "console noise" as Microsoft put it :P http://my.afterdawn.com/mik3h/blog_entry.cfm/351/myafterdawnguides - Guides written by me.

Comment by: Mik3h (Nov 04, 2008 07:53) I was thinking that myself, the only way I could imagine being able to run games from the HDD would be through some kind of patched copy of the game patching specific sectors on the disc, though if that were possible, we wouldn't need flashed or modded drives, so I suppose we'll have just have to keep our fingers crossed. http://my.afterdawn.com/mik3h/blog_entry.cfm/351/myafterdawnguides - Guides written by me.

Comment by: EliteROFL (Nov 11, 2008 03:14) Although it would be possible to do the NOcd crack, I think microsoft has that in mind, but i'm going to cross my fingers too in hope of a badass hacker to set the stage of the first NOcd crack for Xbox 360!! yay |
