I was looking at the pre-kinect gens as well. The tasty point of the new gen for me is the wi-fi. I don't have a spare 50' of cable laying around, and I don't want to drop $90 on a wireless adapter FTL.

This can be taken to PM if you want so I don't trash up this page.

Played reach at a buddies room a few hours back. :eek3:

Helicopters and needler-rifles > *

I may give it a month or so and see if there's a hardware fix. This is going into the thinking hat.

And keef, I don't want that cable through the apartment :chuckles:

The way it's set up, it would run down the middle of everything.

Although I hate wireless gaming lolz

Edit: Weren't old arcades going for $150 and had teh solid chipset?

Yes. Get one if you can find it.

You need a HDD though. If you have access to DOS, you can build a 250GB HDD yourself for about $50.

Working late and ended up eating dinner in Chicago.

Will be around tonight through Monday night. It's going to be a Reech-a-thon.

This is retarded easy. I did a quick search on Microsoft bans based off of self flashed HDDs and came up with nothing. They're not enforcing at all.


In a nutshell, you flash a Western Digital drive's firmware. This will trick the unit into believing it's a 360 OEM Fujitsu.

Now, you don't HAVE to get a 250GB HDD. You can get a 500GB HDD with the correct model number. Flash the 250HDDS.BIN file and your 500GB HDD will be a 250GB.

In the event MSFT releases a larger drive than 250, get the .BIN file from online and reflash. You'll then have a bigger HDD (but lose all info on the current drive)
