How to Mod With a Migration Kit

A migration kit is a small cable that plugs into your XBox 360. It allows you to transfer your files from one hard drive to another. However, it is possible to mod some aspects of your XBox 360 using the migration kit. You can alter your saved game data by using the kit, giving yourself more weapons, money or lives in the process. Be careful when using a migration kit to mod. Modding incorrectly can cause you to corrupt your game files and make your system run poorly or fail to run at all.
