New Xbox 360 250GB S hacked with video!

It's no secret the older version of the Xbox 360 was being exploited as you could look on Craigslist and find hacked consoles and "backup" games, quite frequently.  When the new Xbox 360 "Slim" was released, first thoughts I had was that Microsoft was permanently addressing the "Red Ring of Death" (known to MS as the "overheating") issue.  In the back of my head, I also thought, maybe they're also tackling the piracy concern, as well. 

We've seen companies go under and piracy plays a huge part in this, as many "backup" games float around.  On that note, this video was spotted by a team that is already claiming that they have indeed hacked the new Xbox 360 250GB "Slim" console.

I can't wait until Microsoft starts their next wave of bans and hopefully permanently ban these gamer tags. 

Here is the video of the team claiming to have patched the DVD Rom to allow for the play of backups.

    Amazing how you losers glorify these hackers. They need to serve some jail time which will effect their future job prospects for the rest of their lifes.

    Amazing how you worry about some so called losers. If you buy something you should be about to do anything you want with it. I don't condone piracy but you should be able to play other regions games at least. People just don't like being told what they can and can't do with their property.

    There is absolutely nothing wrong with hacking your systems as long as you're not also pirating software.
