Introducing Xbox 360 chip games

These days many Xbox 360 chip games are gaining huge popularity in the Xbox world. Usually the chip installed in your Xbox 360 is programmed in such a way that you will be able to play only the games that have license from Microsoft.

But if you want to play a game that is not authorized by Microsoft to run in an Xbox 360 then the system will prevent that game from running in your Xbox. Well this is when the Xbox 360 chip games will come into play. These chips are programmed to bypass or disable the actual Xbox 360 program that doesn't allow running a game that is not permitted by Microsoft to be played in the Xbox.

In case of chip games you can also keep back ups of the games in your Xbox 360 hard drive. The restriction was developed by Microsoft basically to prevent the usage of pirated games, but many Xbox 360 owners consider this to be a rather unnecessary restriction forcefully applied on them.

What are the advantages of having a falcon chip in your Xbox 360?

When you are about to buy an Xbox 360, you don't want to buy a piece without the legendary Falcon chip in it do you? These chips are the next generation Xbox 360 chips which have a lot of advantages over the 90 nm chips.

The 65 nm Falcon chip is proven to be much more efficient which comes with an extra heat sink. This chip doesn't generate excess heat that leads to the infamous Xbox 360 red ring of death error. Also the Falcon chips cost fifty percent less to manufacture and much smaller in size.

So overall these chips are considered as the "dream come true" version of Xbox 360 chips.
