Xbox 360 when they die they just die

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I think it is funny how many people broke their TV's with the Wii. Can you say "User error". I believe somebody actually sued them on this too. LOL. That would be like saying it's the car manufacturers fault you flew through the windshield when you ran into a telephone pole because you were not wearing the seatbelt they installed for your safety and convenience. LOL
 
i have a 360 elite and mine flashed the RROD once so i just turned it off really quick, left it for a few hours and i havent had problems with it since.:headbang2
 
lucky u , my nephews was dead when it rrod .
 
I just finished modding mine :headbang2
BTW, nobody cares about gamerscore. I don't see why people without a xBox always make this comment.

Nice job! Now be careful about playing on live. Don't play games before they're release date, make sure you stealth everything, and make sure the source of the game is good.

Microsoft goes through about twice a year and bans boxes like crazy...the boxes banned are usually the ones that played unstealthed games early from a bad source. Some believe ms was even putting games online before the ban so they could catch them.

Also, I agree completely about gamerscore. I play games for fun, I could care less if you have a higher or lower gamerscore than I do.
 
Yeah, I heard they check game licenses on the 15th and 30th of each month.
But I didn't put a flash chip in because they're useless IMO, and I don't mind paying for games ;)
I figured we need some pictures of my beast. BTW this is the xBox I fixed with the towel trick. And my modded controller. Before you tell me I'm a loser for having one, it was cheap and I only use it mess around.

Pointless number?

BLASPHEMY!
Yeah I stand by it, pointless number. I play games because I enjoy playing games, do I look at achievements then yes I do. Sometimes if not much is out and I fancy looking for a game I wouldn't normally play then achievements tend to sway me towards or against a game. I'm not on live so I tend to play games in this field that don't have many online achievements, which IMO if they are well thought out by the developer then it's worth going for them, not for the number but for the achievement.

Gears is a perfect example of this, I wanted to do it on insane and did and got the achievement for it, same with gears 2. On the other hand I'm not going for Seriously(because I'm not on Live) for 50g or what ever it is or going to spend hours on seriously 2.0, A: because I've got better things to do with my time and B: I've got better things to do with my time, if I wanted a huge number I'd have played avatar.

I'd much rather have the 20g for mile high club on COD4 than 1000g for completing avatar in a minute.

Some people care others don't, if you want a big number then fine, if you don't then just play the game and enjoy it.

I wasn't going to comment on the modding of the console, I'm sorry but flashing a drive is not modding. I'm not stupid when it comes to hardware and computers but to me the thought of the constant battle with M$ checking for a mod is far to much of a hassle, something new is released to bypass the latest checks that you have to find the right thing for your drive and then you need to take your console apart and reflash to avoid bannings etc.(that was me trying to sound stupid). Then you find out the games you've 'bought' or d/l don't work because it's not compatible with that firmware, seriously I'd rather just buy the game. If your clever you can pick up most games far less than the retail, playasia is a perfect example. I picked up a second hand Hitman bloodmoney for a £5, less than your average joe on the street would sell it for. if it works at all.

That's impressive, it's just a shame that your warranty is now void for doing something to something you've paid for. That's the sad part about modding, any mod is deemed to be a bad one:(
 
It doesn't matter because it's not under warranty anyways. It broke and they sent me a new one and I didn't have to send it back. So why not? I'm going to sell the modded one ;) PROFIT
 
Put it this way, when looking for recruits, or folks I want to play with, that "pointless number" has QUITE A BIT to do with things.


Of course the age old excuse of "I have a life" or " I have better things to do" or " I get girls so my gamerscore is low"............................will still be uttered out of the mouth of excuse makers.



meh

You openly admit you have/use one of these.

Unreal.
