The Xbox 360 DVD-ROM drive firmware hack is currently the only
modification or hack available for the Xbox 360 that allows you to play
properly created backup copies of Xbox 360 games. The firmware hack
does NOT allow homebrew programs to run and does NOT bypass region
protection. If a video game is locked to a particular region, then it will only
play on an Xbox 360 of that same region. Before jumping into this
modification, it is a good idea to learn how this hack works.
In the most basic form, an Xbox 360’s game protection comes from two
security measures. First of which is encryption. Nearly all files on an Xbox
360 game disc as well as the Xbox 360 hard drive are signed with
Microsoft’s private key. If anything in these files, even just a single bit, is
changed, the signature is broken and the Xbox 360 refuses to run the file.
The second security measure is media locking. The default.xex (game
executable) is restricted to run only from a certain type of media. For
example, all Xbox 360 games are restricted to run only from “Xbox 360”
media. Before the firmware hacks, if you were to copy an Xbox 360 game
and try running it from “DVD+R DL” the Xbox 360 would obviously see that
it wasn’t “Xbox 360” media and refuse to run it because of the media
restriction.
This media restriction is what the firmware hacks bypass. The firmware
fakes out the Xbox 360 into thinking that any media is “Xbox 360” media.
You copy your game to DVD+R DL, insert it into a firmware-hacked drive,
and instead of returning “DVD+R DL” to the Xbox 360, the drive says it is
an “Xbox 360” disc and it then plays the game. As you can see, the
firmware hack does not bypass any signature protection whatsoever. That
is why the Xbox 360 backups have to be 1:1 unedited backups of the Xbox
360 games.
