So I was bored and had spent some time in PA this weekend to visit the kids. My brother in law was there and asked for Madden 08 for the old hacked XBOX I have for my boys. I burnt it, and plan to bring it up next visit...
My roommate here has an XBOX but no games or controllers at the moment. Used XBOX controller is still $20 at GameStop! geesh. Well, MechAssault is $3 used, saw 1 8MB MadCatz memory card for $10, and a dongle for $3. Get home and splice the dongle into a USB cable so my XBOX controller can plug into my PC. Download "Action Replay XBox PC Software v1.31" from CodeJunkies and Ltools from Xbins (google that yourself). Plug in the memory card and controller. First USB device it finds is the controller, for me anyway, which I skipped. Pointed the next USB device to the drivers in the Action Replay install directory. Dragged ltools_MA_v1.8_rc1.zip onto the AR software and it installed it to the saves directory. Drag it from PC to Memory card, bam.
Put it on the XBOX and copy to hard drive, then start MechAssault and press "B" to get back to Ltools main menu (Starts in the DVD menu). There you go. Follow the on screen prompts.
So I also used the ltools_dashes.zip and have UnleashX, and I did all this to test my Madden 08 burnt DVD, and help out my roomie if he decides to ever use his XBOX he can get some games from me...
Best part -- took under 30min. First XBOX I ever hacked took like two days of figuring crap out. This was back when installers weren't invented and I had to hotswap the hard drive and such. Eventually I'd like to upgrade the harddrive in my kids XBOX. The 120gb one in there has been full for awhile.
