    Not on your console without doing something to it. I don't know what it is you need to do to it but copied games won't play online and your console and gamertag will get banned from Xbox Live and possibly bricked. It's also very illegal and no-one here is going to help you do it.

    you can get them chipped or flash the drive. then your friendly local market trader may have games for €10
    i know loads of people who have it done and they play away on xbox live

    Yes its possible. Don't expect to use Xbox live with it though (sooner or later, you will be caught out)

    I always end up buying all the games I want anyways.

    Xbox live is a farce anyway not only do you have to subscribe to play online but download demo's also its not a very good way to promote games imo, seems to me its the microsoft mentality trying to be bigger than everyone else.
