For those of you curious, AP2.5 stands for Anti-Piracy 2.5 which involves certain checks that the Xbox 360 does on a AP2.5 enabled disk to make sure it is legit. LT+2.0 combated the current checks at the time, but because Microsoft can change those checks at any times, LT+2.0 is not prepared to combat new checks. That is why we must wait for LT+3.0 which profiles all checks into a topology which can response positively to any new check Microsoft can throw at the back-up disk.

XGD3 stands for Xbox Game Disk 3, and XGD2 stands for Xbox Game List 2. All XGD3 games are AP2.5 enabled, and only six XGD2 games (listed above) are know to be AP2.5 enabled. Though theoretically Microsoft can make a lot of other XGD2 games AP2.5 active, either through system update or title updates. However unlikely, it is possible.
