====================================================
X-Box360, do you mean game copies from Usenet ?
We have an X-Box360 and an X-Box One in the house, I might look into
getting copies to run on the 360. Cant risk it with the X-Box One...
have heard stories of people getting permanently banned from 'live'
for using copies and my Niece would kill me for getting a ban :)
My Brother has the 360 but doesn't connect to 'live'.
I have been told that he would need to buy a different DVD drive to go
inside the 360.
