Xbox360 Disc Read Errors
about 1 year ago - No comments
Well, as I posted several months ago, I successfully repaired the graphics overheating problem on my green Halo3 special edition Xbox360 (and several others since then). I’m happy to report that it is still going strong. Some have asked for a list of parts I used and a writeup on the procedure. As I never More >
Xbox 360 Video Card Fried
about 1 year ago - 7 comments
Well, I suppose I jinxed myself with my regular bragging of how I’ve never had problems with my 360. To be honest, it has been great; very reliable up to this point. However, tonight, I turned it on…everything worked fine…I connected to my media server….started playing a video and about 20 seconds into the video More >
Racing Setups for the Xbox360
about 2 years ago - 2 comments
There are several wheels out there (mostly for the PS3 and PC) but not so many for the 360 (why is MS not letting Logitech make the G27 not for the Xbox?). But there are a few from the cheap (Madcatz) to the mid-range (MS wheel, Logitech DriveFX) to the enthusiast inspired (Fanatec).
Fanatec makes the More >

Finally a detailed review of one of the most anticipated future titles on Xbox 360. I’m not completely sure how I’m going to like some of the features like the “auto-braking” and the “rewind” button. Seems like they are going to have to cripple More >
Xbox 360 Repair

Well, my first attempt at repairing the dreaded 3 RROD on the 360 has gone well. It took about an hour and a half since it was my first time taking one apart. Anytime I try something like this for the first time I like to be careful until I see exactly how everything is More >

“Matthew Crippen was arrested yesterday for hacking game consoles (for profit) in violation of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. He was released on a $5,000 bond, but faces up to 10 years in prison. This is terribly disturbing to me; a man could lose 10 years of his freedom for providing the service of altering More >

Xbox 360 Media Woes
I know it’s an old article but I was talking with Frohboy about this so I decided to throw it up. Wish they would just port Boxee to the 360 and not just computers and the Apple TV. But anyway, maybe we will get Hulu at some point soon anyway. I’m not More >

Hmm sketchy, sounds like a guarenteed RROD. I’m waiting until the end of the year when msoft changes their GPUs to the smaller manufacturing process. They’ve already moved the memory off the back of the board, so hopefully all the heating issues will be solved which will increase durability.

Yea, I heard they were thinking about Blu-Ray on them too. I’m not sure if it will be an internal combo drive or external. They may do external so the original 360 owners can get one.
