Well September of last year my 360 died for the 3rd time and I was fed up. The slim PS3 had just came out so I got rid of everything I had and got that. I told myself that once they put out a somewhat redone console, I would buy that then. I went to gamestop yesterday and traded in all my PS3 stuff and got enough store credit to cover the system, the warranty, and a play and charge kit. I just have to wait for their next shipments which are the 9th, 13th and 16th. Not being able to play mw2 sucks!

Went to Walmart to grab some things after my bball game tonight, no intention of picking up the new 360, but they had 2 of them in stock...so I walked out with one.

Can I use the old hard drive transfer kit to transfer from my elite to the new S? Or do they have a new transfer kit?

Well I got my new 360 today, got it all hooked up and looking shiny! I was getting a bit nervous because I called the gamestop (35 minutes away) to ask if they had any left and she said they did but she couldn't tell me how many were available. I drove the 35 (well almost 50 because of traffic) and when I finally got in the store and in line there were four people ahead of me, three out of the four bought a NEW freaking 360, so I was getting pretty nervous and was going to be a bit "per-terbed" if I made the trip for nothing, but I got to the lady, asked "Do you have anymore new 360's left?" She went to the back and told me that they had just.one.left.

*big sigh of relief*

"I'll Take It!"

I took pictures, but I have the wrong cord to hook up into my laptop so they will have to wait until tomorrow to be posted. I also took some pictures of how I hooked up my component cable and HDMI cord into the 360 at the same time, I gotta go though....time to game!

I'm a little confused by this, someone complained about not doing this. Whats the point of have the Component cables and the HDMI cord hooked up at the same time?



yeah I know two or three people have complained about it, and two or three times I mentioned why I do it (I can tell how much I'm payed attention to :p) I hook up the component cable to the back of my xbox 360 and run the two audio wires into my surround system....Then I run the HDMI cord from the xbox 360 into my television.

A bad ass surround system is the point of hooking both of them up, at least it's the only way I been able to find.
