New Xbox360 dashboard beta steps up anti-piracy effort
As the new format disc is coming on the Xbox 360, a new Anti-Piracy check has been implemented that prohibit the pirates from playing a backed up copy of the game. In addition to the new anti-piracy check, the DVD firmware on every drive of the Xbox 360 will be rewritten. The purpose of the new firmware that will be installed on the DVD drive will allow the system to unlock the extra 1GB of data on a DVD dual layered games. With that being said, players who installed a modified firmware that allows them to play a back up disc will no longer work.
With the ongoing battle of Microsoft against the pirates, the new dashboard update that eventually everyone will get will have this new security firmware. The question is, how long until hackers can crack this new DVD firmware?

Xx420xX_Kush_x_NLkgb_immortaliBullet I wonder if this would stop us from playing our iso mods which are installed to the Hard Drive.
yes it would
No...nooo...NOOOOOO!
This really sucks, im going to wait for other people to download it first, and if iso mods really do get disables then imnot going to download the update
*runs off to play iso mods as much as posible*
If you are in the beta and you update back ups will be disabled until reflash your dvd key. you can then play back ups again except for ap 2.5 games
