Update on Xbox 360 bans

[Retro]

lol. This is form the same guy who makes the iXtreme firmware hacks for the Xbox 360.

As a follow-up to the recent XBox Live Bans and HDD Crippling wave comes word today that C4Eva is working on a new XBox 360 DVD Firmware.

Although the hack is currently in the development and testing phase, it's been dubbed iXtreme LT (Lite Touch).

To quote from #fw on IRC EFNet: "[c4eva] new fw in dev/test - ixtreme LT (Lite Touch) - more efficient, minimal patching, all aspects of fw indistinguisable from orig, no more bans, No ETA!"

We do not have more details at the moment. As far as we know the 3 'test boxes' C4Eva has running are still fine (not banned).

Yeah - everyone is waiting for iXtreme 1.7

Stealth is just a false sense of security. Every year people are banned, some who have old non stealthed fw get passed the bans even.

Its pretty much a cat and mouse game - if you have a chipped/modded console there's no guarantees - you might get banned at any stage. Its a chance you take.

Trouble is, modded Xboxes have been flagged already. Keeping it offline now and waiting for iX LT will be fruitless. Go and buy an Elite for R2999 at Games X-etra.
