    they have too much money. thats why they dont worry about it
    investing it in a new consoledivision is far more interesting than putting it in the bank adn get xx % for it.
    That money wasted to the broken xboxes is just part of the whole deal.
     
  2. ROFL hows about you stop modding your xbox. if you kept it legit you would be playing your game right now....

    Most common problem with 360's is their CPU chip. Silicone thermal paste is used to for the heat sink. It's not that great transferring heat so it causes the cpu's solder to melt and creates a bad connection to the circuit board.

    ^^ I called Microsoft today and explained to them that I'm getting 2 red lights and the lady on the other line said that I have to let it cool for several hours.... but I haven't played it in several days and she finally agreed to send me a box so that I can send it in... I'm hoping that this will be the last time...
     
  5. ^ don't chip it again, just hope they dont look inside and see its been modified.

    not again. they will def get suspicious on why every time u use it the xbox just breaks down. what are u doing to it which is causing this. if ur trying to mod it then just stop, its obviously not going to work. besides whats wrong with legit games.

    I thought that modding any kind of hardware usually voids your warrentee.

    ye same, but apparently its a software mod or something. i dunno but then again that wouldn't stop the xbox working so i guess it is a hardware mod, just prob the fact that microsoft are so rich and there are so many faulty machines that they just don't check.

    lol screw Microsoft!
    My programming professor was like "Ya those jerks at Microsoft don't adequately test their code...they let the customers do it. Don't be like Microsoft!"

    You can't run a console without some type of Operating Software. Modding that software risks damaging it and preventing the xbox from running properly.

    M$ simply ruined the console by not adequately designing and testing it, just to beat the PS3 to the shelves
     
  12. M$360 is still a cool console

    Every game console that ever came out had faults. Name one that never had.
     
  14. ^ Sega Master system
     
  15. you should just wait longer before you mod it again.. play it through so you know that the xbox isn't faulty already..

    in a way i agree
    if a game was 20 or 25 euro then the mass will buy a lot more games.

    but now a ps3 game is 50 euro

    thats 75 usd!

    a bit on the expensive side.
