The title ID seems to double the information from the Xbox Game Disc mastering code etched into the ring or readable from the DMI. The game number is expressed in 3 decimal digits here which suggests that it will always be below 1000.

Examples:

FIFA Soccer 2003:

  • DMI and mastering code: EA02302E (Meaning: publisher EA, game number 023, version 02, region Europe)
  • Title ID: [FIXME]

Halo: Combat Evolved:

  • DMI and mastering code: MS00402A (Meaning: publisher Microsoft, game number 004, version 02, region America)
  • Title ID: 4D530004 [MS-004]

Halo: Combat Evolved:

  • DMI and mastering code: MS00404E (Meaning: publisher Microsoft, game number 004, version 04, region Europe)
  • Title ID: 4D530004 [MS-004]
