    Well firstly, I'm using this guide to softmod my xbox.

    http://www.xbox-hq.com/html/xbox-tutorials-183.html

    Now, is this a good guide? i seen some people say its not a good method to use.

    Do i need to burn the xbox games to play them? I read that you can transfer them over via ftp, but I'm not sure. Also how big is a default xbox hard drive? I'm thinking its small, so would a regular 120 gig PC harddrive work?

    Alright I got my hands on Battlefield 2:Modern Combat, Its a .iso, Is this the right format for the game? I was told I have to burn the iso on a dvd-r at the lowest speed for it to play in my xbox, But cant I transfer it over via ftp? if so what directry do I put the .iso in?


    Also, would I be able to play the game on xbox live? Pretty sure if I do I would be banned :\
