if this is the wrong section to ask a question i apologize , anyway

so if i read right you can download demos via pc and play them on an unmodded xbox, so if this is correct then why wouldnt you be able to do this with a game and then change out a few files for the full game?

im sorry if this is a dumb question and if its been asked before , i did use the search button and didnt find anything about it ..to me the only thing that would make it not work would be that somewere in the demo file it has how much of the game that could be played , which again i would think would be able to be changed , anyway sorry again if its been asked or if its a stupid question but thanks for any answers

Well it's all pretty technical and not that simple. Every single file on the game disc is signed. This means that the code is legit and will run. If you modify any code or files, and they become unsigned they will not work anymore. However, this is why people are into whats called JTAG/RGH (reset glitch hack). With a JTAG/RGH Console (hacked console) you can run unsigned code whenever you want, including dashboards, emulators and whatever. You can also hack games. BUT with a JTAG you will NOT be able to use Xbox LIVE. Sad

Don't get confused between a firmware modded and JTAG Xbox 360 either, a firmware modified console can only play backup dvd's and thats it. A JTAG is so so much different!

Game demos are just demos and not full games, a game is like 2gb and the full game is 7.5gb

Demos that have the entire game on it are only the arcade demos but those can only be downloaded from Live
