I understand your frustration of not being able to play it right out of the box without rigging it. Just trying to help. I hope the one I bought for myself has no maladys. As a preventative measure i'm going to use my PS2's vertical stand to elevate the PS, situating it perpendicular to the way the PS2 would sit in the slot.

so far i haven't had any problems with my X360. Must be bad luck with a couple of your guys with the buggy systems and such. I have my power adapter behind my TV, in a cramped little corner and I haven't had any problems.

However, I flipped the system from vertical to horizontal while the game was still running and it scratched the fuck out of my PDZ game disc. My PS2 never did this whenever I moved its position. Must be a design flaw. I also played PGR3 with no problems whatsoever. I'm one of the lucky few I guess.

oh and my XBL Gamertag is Freedom 001.

When you setup you get live gold free for month. Live gold just allows you to play games...you get live silver for free...that just allows you to talk to people on live. Once your one month is up you can choose how you want to pay for live gold
