recently i bought the first strke map pack from xbox live which was 1600 MS points. the thing is that it accepted my ms points when i bought it but when im downloading it it stops on 99% and then tells me i cant download because it is region locked. i have a US xbox and CoD: black ops US aswell. but i dont live in the USA. so i was wondering if there is a way to proxy the xbox, like on a pc. to make it think im in the US and finish downloading the maps? i dont want those 1600 MS points go to waste.

thanks in advance.

You could try downloading the maps from a warez site, throw them on a flash drive and hope they work.

You can not effectively pirate XBLA and DLC on a stock console (the shared profile thing and online do not play well together for this sort of thing).

I believe MS check for proxies so you are going to have to go full VPN (not sure if they have ways around standard anonymous proxies or endpoint checking). If you have a friend in the US then you can use simple VPN software ( http://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/teamviewer_portable being my choice for basic stuff) but if not you can usually buy in a VPN (many sites offer such services).

    Some CRTs are very much worth the price
  • RedColoredStars @ RedColoredStars:
    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

  • a_username_that_isnt_cool @ a_username_that_isnt_cool:
    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
