It would be difficult to have it work to get online, when you need code sent to you??? Like every beta game, there is only like 5000 available...and a valid email be sent. Im sure there is a need of serial number or something from your receit, but heck i could be wrong.

the code that they emailed out was to get the beta download. in terms of actually playing it you should have no problem at all.

yes, u are right whitenite2k.
I just dl this file, and transfered it to the hdd (via Xplorer360.exe) and it works fine.

Do you need an xbox live account without an age limit on your profile?

@5
open your 360 hd case:
http://www.xbox-scene.com/tutorials-xbox360/open-xbox360-hdd-drive.php
then, connect the hdd to the pc, and dl this:
http://360hax.com/e107_files/downloads/Xplorer360_extreme2.rar
(drive>open>harddrive or memory card and bam, you r in)

you need an xbox live gold account to play online with this, and no you wont get banned

for people who dont have the explorer thing just burn this to a normal dvd-5
then stick it into the 360
then go to games library
then my games
then scroll across to rescent downloads then you will see the beta there

How are you so shure that you wont get banned?
Because you're not playing it on HDD but on a disc.
12.Posted by cyklopPL on Mar 26 2008 at 18:08
I'm quite sure I 'll not be banned cause once u've downloaded the beta there is no way to identify the "original" from "copy",the beta token (key)serves only to download the beta from Market Place, after each version is similar.

i need help i used xplorer360 to move the demo to my 360s hdd and when i go to it it comes up corrupted game demo. Do i have to do anything to the file before i move it to the correct place on my 360s hdd?
14.Posted by IcyChill on Mar 26 2008 at 19:13
o and when i burn it to a dvd it comes up mixed media disk. i have tried this with different disks and no success
15.Posted by cyklopPL on Mar 26 2008 at 19:19
is it so hard 2 read ? 
"then stick it into the 360
then go to games library
then my games
then scroll across to rescent downloads then you will see the beta there "
16.Posted by twism on Mar 26 2008 at 20:18
Do they have the right to bann you when you're playing this and do you need an account without age limit?
17.Posted by Mechafizz on Mar 26 2008 at 21:22
Does the disc thing really work? What kind of DVD are you using i wouyld like specifics plz. As i would like to try that method rather than void my warrenty and possibly upsetting my dad. Thank you for your help as needed.
18.Posted by IcyChill on Mar 26 2008 at 23:26
is it supposed to say mixed media disk when you put it in the 360? thanks
19.Posted by S_Pliskin on Mar 27 2008 at 01:08
This is the same as downloading a 360 demo. Remember when you downloaded the Burnout Paradise demo from this same site a month ago. Same thing people... 
20.Posted by S_Pliskin on Mar 27 2008 at 01:10
Also, I'm world no. 1 in Kane & Lynch on 360, if anyone wants to start a argument. I know my way around a 360 or two. Check the leaderboards for ChrmoSchwinnn, True Skill 50... yeah, that's right I'm Kane in Fragile Alliance.
21.Posted by Mechafizz on Mar 27 2008 at 02:23
I never downloaded the Paradise demo... Anyway, Icychill don't worry about what it is called! Just go to your games and see if it is there, lol. I am at liek 94 percent and i am going to burn it tomorrow and try. Anyone suggest a burning speed, or just go maximum.

i need help!
when i go and click play game, a blade pops up on the right hand side and says "the game could not start. please download the game again. for more help go to xbox.com/support"
im using magic iso, opening the file, and this is what i see
http://img141.imageshack.us/img141/1052/magicisoscreenfk4.jpg
i click the burn button and set it up. burn it, then put it in the box and hit games blade / game library / battlefield bad company mp closed beta / play / and get the error message above... this is my 4th disk got one more. i can make a video if needed. please help!
24.Posted by SoulAssassin808 on Mar 27 2008 at 22:43
Try burning it on a normal DVD-R and if that does not work... mount the iso with deamon tools copy the content map to your desktop en burn that map onto a DVD-R if that still does not work i dunno... i'm gonna try all of that tomorrow so i'm just guessing blind here 
25.Posted by IcyChill on Mar 27 2008 at 23:20
yea fiki83 thats exactly what mine looks like and it comes up corrupted game demo an when i try to burn it it comes up mixed media and there is nothing in the recent downloads
26.Posted by S_Pliskin on Mar 28 2008 at 00:52
Mine worked first try - burn to 4.7gb dvd-r with image burn. Then look under games library to find the demo/beta. Now like I said it works, BUT after playing for like only 3-4 minutes my mate sent me a message saying if you have aquired the demo/beta unofficially, there is high chance of being banned... Arghhhhhhhh. I have not been banned yet, so I think I will play it again. It makes Frontlines look like a game I made in highschool on Logo Writer 3D. IT IS THE BOMB. No. 1 in Kane & Lynch baby....
28.Posted by m4a1dude on Mar 29 2008 at 23:53
hey icychill, i used a memorex 16x 4.7gb 120min dvd+r disk. you can get a minimum of five in a pack at target or something. but if you dont mind throwing out the extra $, get the dvd+rw disk, so if you mess up to many times you wont have to worry about throwing disks away. ps. after doing all this...i ended up getting a beta code. lol
29.Posted by redrum331 on Mar 30 2008 at 03:15
Hey does your 360 need to have the firmware hack to run this or you just burn and play?
30.Posted by Mr_fuzz1012 on Apr 01 2008 at 05:58
ohh god i cant wait to play this! im dying! im even buying dvd+rw to do all this tommorow! im using Cheetah dvd burner to burn this. how exactly do i burn it as?
31.Posted by Mr_fuzz1012 on Apr 02 2008 at 03:25
m4a1dude you wouldnt by any chance have the code? i need it cause my computer doesnt read dvds i just found out!
32.Posted by shopgirl286 on Apr 04 2008 at 20:28
We used nero burning rom and get the error message. Is there an alternative way to burn it?
33.Posted by DevilDan on Apr 06 2008 at 11:18
Shopgirl286, use CloneCD version 5 and up, i know the name is deceptive but it works perfectly for xbox 360 back ups despite being called clone "CD". Nero will not always work i'm not sure why but it just doesn't. i've done over 50 games this way and every one of them works perfectly. Although be careful the disks are so easy to scratch and then they don't work so well always keep them in box's. Also only use the latest iXtreme firmware for your drive be it Sammsung, Hitachi or Benq to avoid getting banned.
Also for all the people that come on here going " how do i make these work on my 360" use a little thing called google to find out i know its hard to find good guides online to mod your 360 but they are there and this one is very good http://caster420.360mods.net/Textbook.2008.pdf , if you still can't work it out then you really shouldn't bother trying and maybe try buying one pre modded.

My box is not flashed, but a lot of people are reporting it doesn't need to be to utilize this. Well, I downloaded it, burned it with Nero, and it just says Mixed Media Disc. There is nothing in "My Games" that says anything about Bad Company or Dice. Any suggestions? I'm wasting discs.
35.Posted by yonieter on May 12 2008 at 15:59
do you need a flashed xbox 360 to run this on a dvd? btw i got a xbox 360 arcade
