Let me be clear that I do not support pirating games. The only reason CODMW 2 is so awesome is because people like me buy it, and that makes the future release of CODMW 3 all the better. While it can be fun to "stick it to the man", at the same time you're sticking it to the workers, and that's not so cool. If I'm going to play a game, I'll buy it.
Now that I've learned how to make a "stealth" backup of a game I'm not going to actually use it. I'm glad I have the knowledge though. I've played a burned game, which was first 'fixed' with abgx360, it works, and I'm pretty certain Microsoft can't detect that it is a burned copy.
I'll get even at Microsoft by buying a PS4 next generation. And I'll convince my friends to as well.
In the meantime, I have 2 Xbox 360's that work again.
The most interesting thing about my repair experience was the comments of the guy who fixed my 360's. He showed me the most common reason for the "Red Ring of Death" error and is of the view that due to the way the console is built, eventually EVERY console will fail. He says it has failure built in, but Microsoft didn't anticipate how their cheap manufacturing would haunt them so soon. He has repaired over 500 360's in Calgary and is busy all the time fixing out of warranty 360's.
He said that my replacement drives will also likely eventually fail but not within the first year or so. He says that he's certain each console will eventually get the RROD failure and he'll be happy to fix them for $60 bucks... lol...

even with stealthing and doing all that with abgx, Microsoft can still detect if your system is modded. Team jungle released a new firmware were its supposedly undetectable.
