I got the 2 DVD-R version of this and it does not appear to work! ;-((

Has anyone got got this and manged to play from DVD-R ?

When I put it in it just sticks to the XBOX logo with the word Microsoft at the bottom.

I have Xtender 1.1 and 8 gig HD.

Its not clear from http://www.nforce.nl/site/nfoclear.php?id=17454 if this is a HD only version. When I browse the DVD-R with boXplorer I can see files on disc1 like

default.xbe
disc1_****0.**
disc1_****1.**
disc1_****2.**
etc...

and

default.xbe
disc2_****0.**
disc2_****1.**
disc2_****2.**

But the original would not have had that as its one disc. Any ideas?

Thanks

Duggy

You can only play from HD. Make a folder using boxplorer called Metal Gear Solid 2 then extract the 2cd's to the same folder. You only need one (default.xbe) file for it to work. Just delete one of them cuz there both the same. Thats it.
