The first downloadable content pack for Mortal Kombat is set for release June 7. Dubbed the "Klassic Skins" pack, it features all of the extra pre-order content you would normally only find if you pre-ordered the game.
The Mortal Kombat Klassic Skins pack includes all seven "klassic" character skins for Sub-Zero, Scorpion, Reptile, Ermac, Mileena, Jade, and Kitana and three "klassic" fatalities for Sub-Zero, Scorpion, and Reptile, which were only available as pre-order bonuses.
As of this morning, Microsoft released a new system update (2.0.13xxx) via Xbox LIVE that will re-flash all DVD-ROM drives, making them go back to their original firmware.
So far there is two solutions to this problem:
1) Accept and install the system update and then you will need to re-flash your drive to play backups again.
2) Keep playing Offline till you're forced to make the update from a new game in about a month or two. Then you will have to reflash your 360 again.
Games that have AP25 protection such as Modern Warfare 2, CoD: Black OPS, Halo Reach and many others will have need to be re-patched and re-burnt for them to work again. There's no ETA as when the new AP25 patch for all those specific games will be release.
