Crazy, you got it back nearly a year before you sent it out. Microsoft is crafty they mastered time travel and didn't even tell the world. It's only a matter of time before Google and Microsoft go to war and leave the world devastated by their battles.gof22 said:In November of 2008 it did red ring on me, but I sent it to Microsoft and it was fixed. Good as new, it hasn't given me any trouble since.
I think I got it back in October of 2007 but I am not to sure of what the actual date was though.
That is hilarious. A definite screen-shot save.manaman said:Crazy, you got it back nearly a year before you sent it out. Microsoft is crafty they mastered time travel and didn't even tell the world.

I believe that the original elites also featured the falcon chip, but i could be mistaken.Insanum said:I got the standard one, And it was my baby, Then it RRoD'd, And i got a new one (thanks Microsofty!) and ive put a 120gb HDD on my Xbox now, So i have space again.
But in all fairness, Bigger HDD & Paint job are all that separate Elite from Normal anyway.
I'm actually quite pleased with it, with the exception of the lack of Xbox Live.Altorin said:You pretty much need a hard drive with a 360... I had a harddriveless 360 for about a year, and I was a sad sad creature for most of it.LorChan said:arcade.
It's all I could afford.
But with my luck, three months later the price of the elite dropped to the price I payed for the arcade. Head, meet desk.
I now understand the reason they even sell Arcades... they're for people whose xbox is out of warranty and broke.. because it's really the only market I can see that wouldn't be disappointed with it...
I bought a 20gb hard drive for my old 360 for 70 dollars (back when that was actually what 20gb HDDs were selling for, now they're considerably less). For 30 more dollars tacked onto the price of that and my arcade, I could have had a 120gb drive, a better constructed machine, and a game or 2 thrown in (They really needed to make a fallout 3 bundle for 360... if there was one when I got my latest 360, even 2 years after fallout 3 came out, I would have bought it)... it sells itself..
the same sort of thing stands now.. if you're going for an elite, if you can hold off for a week or two to shore up the extra hundred dollars, you get a 250gb HDD, a game, an extra controllers, and a free subscription to XBL.. easily worth more then the 100 dollars extra...
Those microsoft guys are crafty devils.
