Ok, so I wanted to play GTA Episodes and MW2 on my 360.
It is flashed with 1.51 and a Liteon drive.
I do NOT care about banning. I just want to play these games.
I already patched them with the PPFoMatic. When I want to start them, it wants to install an update, but that fails because of a disc read error.
When I try to run the unpatched game, I only get the "Play DVD" option, because 1.51 won't let it play probably.
I can't connect my Xbox to Xblox live to get the update. And I also tried updating via USB stick (like said in the sticky thread), but that doesn't work either, nothing happens when I try it.
So how can I do this update and play these games?

ok I menage to fix this problem Smile

I downloaded this file http://download.microsoft.com/download/D/1/8/D181EE58-DE70-4484-936B-0E9161CCD6B2/$SystemUpdate_Fall09_8955.zip

unpacked it to my USB and it finally updated my xbox, so now I can play that game.

bringiton,

usually when I get disk error I know I fucked up in the burning process, my advice to you is to burn that wave 3 image again.

I managed to update. I rented a retail game from a shop and installed the update from there...

The error is NOT because of bad burning, it's because of the Wave patches. Those alter with the Video partion AFAIK, and the update is (as least partially) stored there.

I might have tried the update you posted, but it's alright for now Smile

I think the update is corrputed by the patching, so you would have to boot up an unpatched game to run it. But that doesn't work, because the FW won't even boot a Wave 4 disc because of stealth matters...
Best thing that could happen is a Wave 3 game with that update.

I get the feeling its my burner is trying to say kaput to me. I just burned Dirt2 and I got disk unreadable, although on a second try I was able to get in to the game.

I dont feel like waiting anymore, i wanna play MW.
Does it matter how the patching is done?
I got 2 options here,

ppf from the sticky ( is wave 3 -> "2?) is this reliable for wave 4,
doubts after reading these update failures?

Or should i go for this one,
Wave 4 to 3 using abgx (video.iso & pfi.bin files)

As long as it works..

How do you patch it with ABGX? Which settings do you need to select?

Thanks for the info!

About the update: Maybe you have already played another recent game, like the GTA Episodes or so which installed the update.
