You can use the controller to turn the thing on?[/quote:79279]

Yup, all 3 consoles have that ability. Turn it on or off.

thinking ya'll can use the force to magically put the game in the cdrom as well?

I wouldn't say I'm a lazy person it's just when I'm in a good spot for game playing I don't like to move from it. And I usually am stuck on one game for months so that solves that huge dilemma.

My game has only frozen up on sneak king..lol but its 4 bucks so you cant complain.

if you are worried about heat buy one of the huge fan adaptors for it.

ps DONT WORRY when you turn the machine on. They sound like a god damn lawnmower revving up, I thought mine was gonna explode the 1st time I turned it on.

dont take his advice, these things are not recommended for it at all, they do more harm than good.

Throw a brick at it then to perform a hard reset.

I thought they were going to come out with some firmware upgrade that fixes the spinning drive. SOmething about how it slows down the drive when it doesn't need to be spinning at full speed or something. But yeah, the thing is pretty damn loud.

I like my year old 360. It has never been a problem. If you buy a new one, im hearing, that most of those "circle of death" red light problems are ironed out. An intensive search on the web will turn up manufacture dates of the "bad" consoles all made before a certain date.

Meanwhile ive heard of people going through 5 boxes or more. It really seems to be something random, and odd. Frankly i think those people just take horrible care of them. Though i have heard the "omg i just got my 360 back from repair and 3 minutes in i got he red circle".

Haven't ever had a problem with mine, and I got it last spring. Not too loud either

TGB!	03-05-2007 03:52 AM

Well I finally got the mother fucker. . .the XBOX that is. . .

Jesus fucking christ this thing is huge. I know my PS2 wasnt the thinnest girl in the class - but FUCK! And the battery. . .dear god the battery.

I spent all day actually inside the piece of shit machine - as it kept on giving me "Open Tray" errors. . .the solution - stick a piece of rubber band on the lens bar so it doesnt go off the DVD. Works like a charm now, although it sounds like a lawnmower when Im in single player for any game.

Aint had too much of a chance to play as I spent quite a bit of time just getting the beast open (online tutorials are shit).

Fuck though - creating a name on this thing is tough. . .under ANDSv2 (yes TGB, MrSpecialED were taken - a fucking travesty).

Question: If I want to change my name in future or add someone on to my LIVE acct - can I do so?

Nyck	03-05-2007 08:10 AM

dont think you can change your name or add someone to a live account.
