I was also affected by the dashboard update because I play Modern Warfare 2 and Black Ops on a regular basis. I have some questions:
If I ever want to play either of those games again, is my only choice to get my Xbox 360 flashed with LT+? Will that work? Would I have to make new backups patched specifically for LT+ afterwards? Will there ever be a way to play either of those games again without bothering with a re-flash?
Should an original copy of Modern Warfare 2 run, even after I tried to run a backup that failed?
Will I eventually be banned because I tried to turn on those 2 games after the update?
Thanks!

If you firmware was anything other then LT Plus then most like you will get flagged for banning. In order to play the games now they must be repatched with the ap 2.5 in them which im sure they will have them very soon. Your best bet is to either get it reflashed to play them or just play other games for awhile to see if it will get banned and start saving some pocket change _________________________________________________________ The one the only Scarface!!

As far as banning, I'll just wait with everyone else to see if M$ does it or not, but as far as playing MW2 or BO on my Xbox/dvd drive: When someone makes a patch for AP2.5, does that mean that MW2 and BO backups, burned with this patch, will then work on my non-LT dvd drive? That would be great and save me from having to reflash my drive.

im pretty sure even if they pull the 2.5 out of the games that need it like halo wars mw2 cod bo and that and you patch it only consoles that i know that will boot it without lt plus is samsung drives as they dont do ap 2.5 checks and also hitachi drives 32-59 should also boot the game but you got to have it patched into there still i think but not 100% sure. _________________________________________________________ The one the only Scarface!!
