Won't get time to test this image for a bit til I get the Viper, what does it mean by shrunk (its 900mb unlike all my other 1.4gbs) and what differences, if any, will it have from my original copy?

not if u got it from where I think you have.. 99% chance the image will work becuase it's a gooun but as the GC likes 1.4GB images all u have to do is run it through that and then it'll replace the wiped garbage back into the image...

every game has garbage data, most release groups rip it out but nearly all replace it with compressable data, so the file is 1.4GB but it compresses to be lower. Other release groups dont rip anything and just leave it (means u have to download the full file size), but this is less comon becuase the wiped and repaired images from the other groups work just as well. Then there's other groups that just release images with no data replacing the wiped garbage so the file is smaller for people who stream them and don't ever need any file padding...they hate it becuaseit wastes space on their GC game HD's

hope that made sense...
