    Nope - the people are working hard at this (to use xplorer to put videos on Xbox 360 HDD) as we speak - it is just that all files on
    Xbox 360 HDD are required to be "digitally signed" and must be placed in special container known as "PIRS". I don't know what this container is but I assume it is just another type of Security that Micrsoft comes up with for Xbox 360. Perhaps Microsoft is not happy with the public keep hacking Xbox in last few years.

    It is just a matter of time before anyone come up with a solution that will allow us to bypass security placed on Xbox 360 HDD. In other words, a solution that will allow us to play video, porn, pics, mp3 or whatever on Xbox 360 succesfully :D

    So, again, as I say before, at the moment, it is not possible for us to put video/music onto Xbox 360 via Xplorer.

    Cheers,
    Diego

    Cheer up, fellow British *agent47*,

    Sony PS3 will come with 60 GB hard disc (as standard) - unlike MS's stupid packages for X360! (MS's whole purpose for two packages is just ripping off people by keep confusing people with these packages by forcing them to pay "premium" price for basic package!).

    And not only that, but as you say earelier, Sony will come with memory reader (i.e. memory stick and so on).

    CAn't wait for PS3 to come out and finally, i can upload mp3, porn, pics, films onto PS3 HDD directly from memory stick!

    Microsoft, take a note about how professionals at Sony have done a proper gaming business especially Hard drive disc bits.

    Ah well, it doesn't matter anyway, as I sold 4 weeks old xbox 360 (premium) already as I have fed up with it as i have no control over my own choice of media files on Xbox 360 HDD

    Cheers,
    Diego

    thats great news!!!

    the only reason i am keeping my xbox 360 is because of the graphics. the other features which i was excited about such as media capibilites are not actually as gud as i thought.

    60gb hard-drive will be excellent on the ps3.

    this is the part where xbox create an excellent piece of technology with excellent features but do something stupid like unable to upload music, videos etc.

    hopefully the ps3 will not have protection like that! i hope not!

    I would imagine that the price of PS3 is similar to Xbox 360's price (premium version/package).

    But at least, at that price, you get much more features out of Sony PS3 than Xbox 360.

    So, as usual, Sony may be expensive but it is excellent value for its money - it is just my opinion that's all.

    I bought both PS1 and PS2 when they first released - the price were a bit "over the top" comparing to other games console but I don't care cos, it is 5 years so far, and I haven't got any breakdown from both of them unlike my other game consoles!

    Quality rules!

    Hope that helps, dejahboi

    PS I am so itched to count down the number of days when Sony releases PS3 globally!

    Just to elaborate on PS3 pricing, IGN reported an article during the gaming convention in March that Sony (Playstation) president had reported information that the PS3 was not only being pushed back to November 2006 (likely and speculated to be pushed even further into 2007) but that the price currently being looked at is no less than $450. In addition, Playstation 3 will be releasing world wide in order to catch up with Xbox's year head start. The downfall? That minimal units will be available to the public. I forget the actual number itself, but it was stated in an Insider Article that there would only be a handful of a million some units available to continents.

    Ouch. I'm not shelling out $450+ for a PS3 that has yet to have all of its bugs worked out, much less will I preorder it. And while PS3 has all of this horsepower, it's unlikely that anyone will be pirating games (not that I do myself, however, to many gamers, this is a crucial aspect) due to the blue-disk technology. Hell, I'm not even sure it'll read regular media disks.

    Look for Sony to incorporate as many restrictions as Microsoft and Nintendo have for the next generation, because pirating has caused millions of buys to disappear. This means media lock outs for "unsigned" files such as video and MP3 formats. It's standard in video games now, and it's standard in most PCs. It's an awareness, and if anyone here honestly believes there won't be similar restriction, than you're seriously mislead.
