Xbox 360 game downloads

[Kevin@nextmod]

I do'nt know if anyone started a xbox 360 thread before but i'll start it anyways....

Anyone know where i can download 360 games? i want to play transformer and forza sooooooooo badly.....I know bit torrent is the way to go but i do'nt know any good sites that have good seed for a faster download.

Thanks in advance

The two most used torrent search engines I use are http://isohunt.com/ and http://thepiratebay.org/

In all honesty, for convenience and fast downloads you may want to consider subscribing to newsgroups to get the most of your bandwidth i.e. http://www.giganews.com/

Good luck leeching.

jus outta curiousity....is dis downloading so you can burn on dvds or cds and play on a 360??...did you have to mod your 360 first? becuase i have a 360 and i never knew about being able to download games..

I think You have to mod the dvd drive first....something to dob with removing the old drive flashing it and reinstalling it...

I use http://www.blackcats-games.net/ and it's always been great.

i hope ur not using rogers since they throttle torrent downloads.
or have you somehow found a way around it?

I use bell sympatico and have been downloading very fast from day 1.

And thanks for all the response...i'll have to check them out.
The newsgroup is still kinda pricey for me, have to think about it before joining.

The "way around" rogers throttling you is to use Azureus, you can specify the ports and such...

Last year I had rogers for about 5 months, and I could DL NP once i started using this new download program.

Rogers smartened up now and they blows big time even if you assign ports and such.
Bell is the way to go :bana2

Modifying your xbox isn't a good idea right now... Microsoft found a way to detect it and has been banning them like crazy.

That can be prevented if your games are "stealth" patched. I use Astraweb for download http://news.astraweb.com. They have a pay by download option so you dont need to renew every month. Be sure to only use Verbatim DVD+R DL discs!

interesting, never heard of this be4
i remember that they were banning modded 360's from live but didnt know there was a way around it

I use blackcats-games.net for downloads, as well as www.bitsoup.org, its a bit to finally get registered with, but I manage to d/l @ 1mb/sec with good seeds :)

The Transformers Movie game sucks and Forza 2 comes with all the new Xbox 360 bundles, so you're bound to find a cheap legit copy on places like craigslist.
