Being able to play pirated games is a strong sale pitch actually.. im even certain that its one of the big features to why the 360 is popular. Might be my shady group of friends or whatnot, but all 15 of those i know have a 360 have hacked it.

Hell, I even bought mine purely on the fact that you could play pirated games. I go PS3 for serious business and 360 for playing "average" multiplat games that i don't feel warrent a purchase.


I doubt 15 of your friends have "hacked" their 360.  Flashing the drive firmware to play pirated games isn't really hacked, it still doesn't bypass the security of the 360 allowing you to run unsigned code.  I'm not saying you and your friends haven't got your drive flashed, just your defintion of hacked isn't correct.  The real hacks out there for the 360 right now are really exciting although limited to consoles that haven't had the July 09 update at the moment.

No clue, but you're probably right about the definition.. they've "flashed" the 360 so that they can play downloaded games.
