It doesn't make people cool, people just think it does.(It's supposed to symbolize greed not money)
I think the falcons are already in production but they haven't cleared out the old stock yet and that's why you don't see them in the market.

a) bioshock is good
b) you can't go wrong with a 65nm processor

I have a warranty so I don't worry too much. I play Viva Pinata, Burnout, Oblivion and GOW mostly on my Xbox.(Don't laygh about the pinata thing, it's a good game). I can't play oblivion on my PC(controls are bad to me) but I rather play first person shooters on my PC, after I get a nicer video card it will be much better than a 360.

haha good thinking. You know whati would have like on the 360, an intake fan in the front, that would have helped a lot.

what ever happened to putting care in you work, here my bad f***ing experiance
basically my new-ish 360 (had 4 months) was making a strange smell inside after 15 mins play on dead rising, it felt hot so i turned it off... left it for two hours to cool down after looking on web seeing that 33-35% 360s fail( i panicked!) i turn it on again thinking everything went alright so i loaded my save of dead rising and their was a massive explosion noise from in side... i instantly unplugged it from the wall and open it up looked inside the case and their was this chemical all over my mobo and case... i screamed!!!
i rang m$ and they said without warranty they would give me an £80/$160 charge for repairs and delivery, i said it would be better if they could send me a replacement, they said "no chance mate"... i hung up
does anyone know which ones they are and if i could change em, cleaned up motherboad and case still smells odd though
any help would be great
Ayame, i live for you xxx even though the sight may fade the feelings shall always remain
Ayame, i owe you my life but thats all i have to give to you as you already have my love and my heart

Umm bro the warranty is three years now for the red rings and 1 year for normal failures. If your xbox is 4 months old you shouldnt have a problem, just call them up and get a replacement box. If this was more that one year ago(you mentioned 4 months though) tell them you have had a red ring and they will replace it for you. When they get the xbox they don't really check if it has been opened or not. Plus are you serious about the EXPLOSION? I have never heard of it exploding before.

ive had exploding capacitors on my ABIT pc years ago that was tech fault and they send out a brand new one with free ram
the guy on the phone (dave) was so abnoxious... the warranty was voided when i opened it... at least i thought it voids it...
