Xbox uses "XFAT" The guss CDs use it too

FATX or XFAT is a slightly modified version of the FAT filesystem, and is designed for Microsoft's Xbox video game console hard disk drive, used in an effort to reduce software piracy.

The Xbox also uses FATX on its memory cards, so to read them on a PC (or indeed write to them in a way an Xbox would understand) a special application must be used (the cards themselves connect to the console/PC via an Xbox controller, which is (electronically) USB; hardware-level connectivity is not a problem).

Action Replay is one such application/USB hardware/memory card that reads FATX giving it the ability to store game saves on a PC.
