gamersreports.com— It seems that it has taken those crazy software pirates only 1 day to rip the data off an Xbox360 Disc. However you still need a (nonexistant) modchip to play it.

I'm guess what happened is they dumped the game using an older xbox console. Considering both consoles use DVD-9 Discs this is entirely possible.If you place a 360 disk in an xbox you get an error telling you to run it on an xbox360... so there is data being read.so it most likely was done using DVD2XBOX and then ftp'd the iso to the pc.
My team is currently working on the chip - since the new XBox is so closely related to a regular computer and the first XBox, it won't take us as long as last time. I'll make sure that the folks at the Digg community are the first to know. We have successful rips of their games as well, but will not release them for download until we have finished the chip. Happy gaming!
Console gaming is somthing that will never overcome PC Gaming. Its not about the pirated software, its about the ability to change, manipulate, mod and interact with communitys. I guess ive been doing this since 1996 when did this happen for consoles?, xbox live? And 3d shooters with a pad? lol, dont get me started. X2 4200+, 2x512 OCZ Titanium, 7800 GT CO. Maybe if they took a little time on the games and had them fully take advantage of all 3 cores it "might" be a little different but i still say my rig runs laps around an xbox360.. and the 4x aa? gimme a break, my 2xQuincunx aa looks better than that. The only thing that seperates the 2 is the ability to work specificaly with one set of hardware. To design & optimize all of the games for parts that everyone has, unlike a wide variety with pc games. So yes, it takes more money to experience quality pc gaming with todays games, but id rather spend $1,000 on a pc then, half that on a bunk console that within a year will be way outdated on the pc market, and the ability to build your 360 "machine" will be possible.

please be advised that an HDTV is not solely meant for just consoles... therefore buying an HDTV as an accessory to a 360 is not an option

So without a mod chip, how can they tell its pirated? No digg, move along.
