Most are copying and playing flawlessly. Some I even cut out demos or unnecessary files just to make it more size efficient.
However, I do run into a trouble game every now and again.
Case in point: The JSRF (Jet Set Radio Future)/Sega GT 2002 combo disc.
I can't get either game to load when put on the HDD, and this includes bypassing the default.xbe and trying to run from the individual xbe files for both games. I have copied all files (including demo movies) except the dashupdate, which I always leave out with no ill effect.
Game plays fine when using the disc.
Anyone know if there is a compatibility issue with this release.
Actually, anyone know compatibility issues in general with HDD copied games? In my searching, I haven't seen as much as I find with PS2 HDL/OPL compatibility.
I hear Star Wars KotOR II has a problem too, but I though there was supposed to be a patch or workaround for that game (can't remember where I read about it).
...also...
Where in the heck was I supposed to post this?
I am always torn between "Technical Help", Modding Projects", and the respective company threads, in this case "Sony and Microsoft".
I mean, this is a "Microsoft-Xbox-needing-technical-advice-for-a-specific-game-to-play-on-a-Modded-system" topic. I have no problem with the mod itself, so it really doesn't fit in the system modding thread (as that is more for modding ideas and such). And the Microsoft boards strike me as being for game discussion itself. Hence my own decision to post here
