Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Xbox 360 purchase help!

Kelly7589 · 2009-08-07 15:45:19

Hi! I'll be purchasing an XBox 360 soon as a birthday present and I just wondered if anyone had seen any good deals? ALSO I'm unsure of which to buy..as I'm not really up on consoles. Am I right in thinking there are 3 different ones. The Arcade (more marketed towards kids, that right?) a 'normal' Xbox 360 and a 'PRO' one?…

I have a similar query- would like to buy a new x box 360 for my boyf as his last one died (presume it was the rrod from above posts). Would it be possible for him to use the hard drive from his old one then or would it be buggered also? that would be cheaper for me then cos could buy an arcade one then???

Nah, he will be fine with an Arcade version, can just plug his HD in and continue playing. Hard-drive wont be affected by a RROD, only if the HD itself copped out for other reasons.
