Ok so after the December 6th dash update I am still currently able to play my AP2.5 games and my XGD3 games without any problems on live. Just thought I would let you xk3y owners out there know.

cheers for the heads up caboose,been thinking of getting an xkey for awhile now.

I'm going to look into getting one of those. Do you think it's safer than truncating?

[J4Y]

im gonna get me one of these after xmas i think ....need to do some reading on the net on how it works though 1st seen it advertised never really looked into it ...

x3key can't be used online so I'm guessing it's not safer than truncating.

Oh, I didn't know that. Learned something new today.

They are adding XBL support though, so once that happens I'll probably buy one

i'm pretty sure you can use it online , just a risk you take - same with iso burning - it is a risk !

I'll look into it a little more then. This is a little off topic but how risky is truncating if you know?

[XPGHAX]

far as i know you can use it online??? maybe caboose can shed some more light on it for us

[Caboose]

You can use it online. I was playing MW3 online about 10 minutes ago. Works just fine. You always run a risk of getting yourself banned no matter which way you go about bootlegging. It's always your own risk. I like that you don't have to mod or flash your drive to use the xk3y. Once you have your key you just create your customfw and go.

[setsae]

^ no more re-burns all the time either , what you just re-patch the iso i would think ?

[Caboose]

yeah. everthing else is in the xk3y fw and the custom fw on the sd card. it's awesome.

To me I have a feeling xk3y is going to be patched as it is only a USB device...

[setsae]

sweet , sounds nice indeed.

it runs inbetween your dvdrom and the mobo. i guess it could be but it doesn't really do much but simulate your drive opening and closing.

Yea, I'm dumb on the topic. But i'm going to wait a while to see what happens than maybe get it. for now I'll stick to burning.

[XPGHAX]

i think i shall; be getting one of these

[setsae]

it is way more complex then just a usb device.

i think it is pure genius and in my mind will be the future methods of most hacks for next-gen.

hardware emulation instead of just firmware or bios exploits is the way forward i think.

[Wallsch]

That would be cool. Updating would also be easy.
