I was thinking of getting an xbox 360, probably going to chip it rather than flash it as it would save me a lot of time looking for a specific model chipset/hard drive as the chip im going to buy can be switched off when you go onto xbox live and can be used on any xbox 360 also it seems a lot easier, (maybe im wrong?) what do you guys think?

Also can you just download games off the internet burn them and play them on the xbox 360?

Btw im a total noob to xbox 360's and only read a few guides and tutorials so if i've posted something wrong just tell me as im looking to be as informed as possible.

i dont know anything about the chips or the process, but i did put a chip in my xbox1 and i've also flashed my 360. flashing the 360 was easier and honestly, not that bad. if you have a pc and a certain kind of sata chipset (the name escapes me right now) then that's really all you need. do a search for TEXTBOOK'S GUIDE TO FLASHING THE 360 and you'll be straight.
