360 and Ps3 option file upload explanation

[Cellini 16]

WENB says that all you need is a USB pen drive to upload, both machines will accept this theres no need for Xports etc.

get in!

Where's it say that

 

[Dan]

Options Files will be downloaded via PC and then transferred to the PS3 or Xbox 360 via USB Drive (Flash Drive).

Yay?

 

[Cellini 16]

yeah sufwan just confirmed it, it makes sense because i listen to mp3's through the usb ports on the front and my ipod, so its not a case of not recognising it as media? all they have to do is save it in xbox compatible file formats and job done!

 

[mufcsean]

Woohoo

 

[Dan]

This is the first I've heard of the 360 been able to read USB devices though. :erm:

Does this mean we'll have to have the USB drive in the 360 when we want to use the option file or does the option file overwrite the default one?

 

[Cellini 16]

try it yourself son, put your mp3/ipod into the front of the xbox and see what happens

as long as the file is in that format, there is no reason why that wouldnt work, Sufwan knows his stuff

 

[Dan]

Whoops, I made a mistake there. I have used a USB device to store videos and music on before and the 360 read them, what I meant is, I've never heard of the 360 been able to read game saves off of a USB device.

If that makes sense? :erm:

 

[Cellini 16]

ah right - well i must admit ive not done it either, but there's no logical or technical reason why it cant? Sufwan and co seem convinced that you can do this

thats not cool if you use SD cards and such.

everyone has an mp3 player that works as a storage device these days so just use that if ya do.ive been using my mp3 in there for a while now,listen to music whilst playing PES generally. i paid £12 for a 128k stick like that!!was years ago like but its amazing how theyve dropped in price. when PSPs came out i got a 1gb card for £55,i just bought a 2gb for £16 for my phone..............

man,all they need to add to make edit mode perfect would be like a pencil feature or something,so you could manually draw on kits,and even players i guess!this way the 2stripe template could easily be turned into 3stripes and say someone like bellamy or cisse,you could draw the tatoos on them.just a thought.

well phsyed now
