Hi, I'm new to this whole backup thing, but I've successfully burned a few working PS2 games (both CD and DVD). I just wanted to know if burning games for the X-box is exactly the same process (i.e. image burning for CD-r, and direct copying for DVD-r)? Also, are there any non-solder chips for the x-box like there are for PS2, as I am using the slide card + swap magic disks for PS2. Is there anything like that for xbox? Thanks a lot for your help

A) Yes Q) swap magic A) no as a general guide (well actually an answer to the exact same topic name as this one, around 8 posts down) you will need As a BRIEF rundown of what you will need - here is a short list of what you need to do.
