Xbox 360
 
ok, my relative might buy one so we could play fifa 'n shit.
Where To Buy? close to the north
What to buy (elite, pro, regular)? any worries still from the RRoD?
What is the suggested price of the regular xbox 360 (modified 'n shit) + HDMI cable + 2 controllers ?

Confucius 04-18-2010 10:05 PM

I bought the Elite one for 410$ + pad for 50$ just buy the Arcade one for 300$ + 1 pad for 50$ w yes el RRoD is still a problem bas abit less of a problem in the newly manufactured ones.

PS: ana bekhdak la 3end Nino bel 7amra ta tjiba if u're sure u wanna buy it. Anything la khayyeh el RuuuDzZzZ :p

I'm with the home-made solutions philosophy.
This pushes me to open a thread on consoles hacking.

St. Elie Antelias, there's a store which selles computers, consoles, accessories... besides the cinema, the guy's name is Maroun, he fixes it guaranteed 100%

You are way off, not even the Wii has such low failure rates.
Last I checked the 360 was down to 20%, PS3 6% and Wii 2,5%. (Failures within a year)

Neoxter 04-22-2010 05:31 PM

is the 360 arcade compatible with natal ?

Read the article.
These are the numbers provided by a warranty company that cover 360's that don't get reported to Microsoft. And from what I know, and from what the article says, Microsoft has a good warranty against RRoD. So the majority of customers would report their RRoD 360's to Microsoft.

Let's assume 20% get reported to this warranty company and 80% to Microsoft. That would mean a 10% RRoD failures, and if RRoD is the cause of 50% of 360 failures then we're back to a total of 20% 360 failure rate within the first year of purchase.
