I've had mine since Christmas, I leave it on for like 12 hours straight, sometimes longer, I don't take care of it, it's in a small box on my entertainment center, and no problems at all.

Yeah it sucks. For the moment I'm borrowing a friends xbox while he is on vacation, but he will be coming back soon and he will want his xbox back. While I only have 40 dollars, and no job. So it looks like im gona be stuck without a xbox for quite awhile unless I can get someone I know to buy my original xbox.

Yeah it kind of sucks. Well originally the xbox that broke wasn't even mine. Me and the friend who is letting me borrow his xbox traded xboxs because mine was newer and had the hdmi plug. I couldn't use the HDMI thing and he could so he offered me CoD4 and Assassins creed in return for trading xboxs. However it sucks because the warrenty on his xbox ran out. So now im stuck with the 100$ repair bill.

Did you get a more recently released 360 or one of the near original releases?

Well the one I gave to my friend was a newer one because it had the HDMI port in the back, but he had a older one, and that is the one that I currently have sitting in my basement like a damn brick.

Hm. I got the H3 edition, and it's fine. And I treat it like shit. If it had feelings, it'd kill itself.

2. Blueray is a fucking huge feature no matter what you fanboys try to say, High definition movies are a ginourmous market and the fact that Microsoft tried to introduce an hd addon to their console back in the day proves that. All you fucking fanboys were saying "Yeah well the xbox has just a good hd player as the ps3 so that doesnt even matter" But when Hddvd players went down the shit hole it became "pfft, those hd movies dont matter".


The only good point you made in this post.


3. Uncharted, heavenly sword And resistance are exclusives that sold really well if I remember correctly.

Yup, and they're good games. That song was released before them, though.


4. Yeah, go play your shitbox that fails 33% of the time,

Er... 33% eh?


and all of its good exclusives are shooters, with the same formula over and over again. Halo? Gow? The only creative studio you have is valve and their main market is the pc. You may have had bioware before they were acquired by ea but thats all gone now.

Shooters have the same formula over an over again? BULL ****ING SHIT.

Halo and Gears do NOT have anywhere close to the same formula. List 4 non-genre intensive things they have in common.

And the last I checked, the only Sony-exclusive developer worth it's salt was Team Ico.

5. Hey aren't are the ports almost the exact same? I mean ive looked at the 360 to xbox comparison videos on gametrailers and their isn't a whole lot of difference. I mean the guy who reviewed gta4 said there wasn't any visible difference. So this bullshit about the ports sucking on the ps3 is just that, bullshit. yeah, the orange box sucked we all know that, but thats a single case, and that was probably because of valve not particularly wanting to be ported.


This is a faulty argument anyway. The only trend I've noticed with 360 versions of multiplatform series is better implementation of online games.

Breaking news:

Hl2 episode 3 will be launched on the 360 and the PC. It was confirmed. You can rack that up for another reason.

Marines, aliens, storyline is absent? Linear maps.

Note how I said creative studio .

Sony has media molecule, thatgamecompany and Naughty dog.
Microsoft has lionhead, rare and maybe ensemble(if you consider one trillion age of empires clones creative).

No, bungie is not creative.

Storyline absent by ass. A whole universe has been created with Halo.
