Xbox Live Arcade question

Hi!
The XBLA seems to be the Microsoft's equivalent of the WiiWare service - meaning they are offering downloadable games (amongst other things).
My question would be, is it possible to play DL content on that console, like with the Wii: I download the "wad", add it via a manager and play?

Only if you know how to bypass the security of the operating system, as all code is signed. The only way it has been done so far was through a memory flaw, and that was to run linux. The only reason that you can change the firmware on the drive is because there third party and not signed off.
