  • I have the same version for the past 2 1/2 years and never had a problem.

  • i have a ps3... and im thinking of buying an xbox... but right now im sorta kinda doubting to buy one bcoz of the RROD... how can you prevent it? xbox owners pls reply! i wanna own both consoles... thanks!

  • @tomanatorness i wanna own both aswell and my frend who owns a xbox tld me dat its best nt to play it nonestop n buy a cooling fan if the installled fan is working very loudly

  • @tomanatorness o yh and clean the inside from time to time

    the ps3 as yrod or somtin like dat just open up the console and remove the dust

  • I find it sad that we have to consoles life spans now a days. why can't they just make a console that lasts.

  • @eap0295 they did ps2 every had one and i have still got mine to this day and its has never once had any problems

  • Typical life span of the 360 at the time was 1 to 2 years.Glad Microsoft repaired it for you.I just bought mi Elite and it runs cooler and less noise.The life span on this 360 is 3 to 4 years.

  • if you dont take care of your stuff its going to fail i had mine since 06 and and its still going strong becaues i baby it i dont abuse it or mod it so 4 years strong i dont know what these kids are doing but your cauesing your self to shell out more money take care of your things and you wont have problems period!

  • i got this halo xbox 360 and i have the halo xbox 1

  • have you update the console's dashboard. the new dashboard causes some xbox 360s to have rrod

  • XD thats sexy XD, if you can still get that anywhere its mine XP

  • wat is a ring of death??

  • When you start up your 360 the green lights that normally surround the power button turn red. It's a major hardware failure. So it's call the red ring of death because it happens so often.

  • @joscobo I've had the ring of death 2 times xD i had to switch Xbox :P

  • how much did you give for that ?

  • 350 bucks.

  • that thing still work?

  • hi i need to know if the new Jasper chipsets are any better than the falcon chipset.....do you have any friends who have has the jasper and got the RROD?

  • had my jasper about a year now..got in in jan 09...the one with the built in memory and its fine no probs at all and i play allloootttttttttt

  • My Xbox360 will run somtimes and actually turn on, then soon while on dashboard or playing a game, it'll freeze up, and rings will return. This is happening everytime since Christmas, (No I didnt get my 360 on Christmas) Mine is the Halo 3 Edition. I'm sending it out to get repaired as it falls under the 3 year warranty.

  • this system includes hdmi?

  • Yes it even includes the cable.

  • that halo looks like something I find in my mom's soup wen i was 14....

  • 360's are better......... they fixed so most of them dont get RROD anymore...

  • 360's went from 60% fail rate to about 30%

  • I'm on my 3rd 360 because they all RROD. This sytem is a piece of shit and I urge everyone to at least send a letter to the head office to let them know how much they helped contribute in your decision in buying the competitions product.

    Screw you Microsoft, you faceless, money sucking vacuum, scum bags. You have no shame.

  • @ADoseofReality1

    Wow you must be really unlucky. I got a secondhand 360 in 06-07 christmas hol's and the only problem I have is the framerate going a bit silly in need for speed games, but I think that's more EA not designing the graphics, gameplay, etc. for the X360's specifications.

  • xbox 360 elites are the best

  • dude i wish people would stop sayingthat all they are are black and come with a 120 hdd thats it

  • I have two friends and both have had three 360's before Micro$oft finally just replaced the units. Of seven people I know every one, including me, has had RROD at least once and 5 have had it twice or more. If Halo was ported to Playstation I would jump ship.

  • oww sad face.

    but newer xbox are cool and will not fail.

  • does any one know when the will stop making the mw2 360

  • im getting the call of duty mw2 limited edition in a few days and it comes with the game

  • That is a bad assed looking system. It was a big gyp the Halo edition didn't come with the game or a bigger hard drive. But all I play is Halo so that's what I got.

  • 2 of my halo3 consoles died.bought 250gig ps3 not looking back!!

  • Same thing happened to me with the piece of shit 360 2 years ago, trust me you won't regret having purchased the PS3. Cause after 3 of my 360's that I once owned gave me the red ring of death only after 1 year of play, I bought the PS3 and two years later it still runs as smooth and quite as when I first bought it. The PS3 is truly the best system in graphics quality and reliability HANDS DOWN!!!!

  • i got mgs4 and singstar(for my daughter)gta4(+add-ons)mf2.lov­ing the new slim.and the blu-ray play back is simply the best.

  • Yeah you can do so much more with the PS3 and it doesn't have the same failure rate of the 360 but not everyone sees that. The only reason why there is so much hype behind the 360 is because it had a 1 year head start, that's a long head start for people who were desperate to see the future of gaming. But Yeah that new PS3 with 250gb that costs $349 WHAT A DEAL MAN !.

  • you have quite a good reason to say that but that in most opinions a 360 is better and started earlier but i tihnk both systems are very good but there has been 3 playstation versions so people are getting tired of it and ps1 and ps2 werent very well done but the first xbox was great and they made the 360 even better

  • Actually, the PS2 was such an amazing system that till this very day it continues to sell. You say the 360 is better, I disagree for the very reason that, the 360 has the highest console failure rate on the planet, no console in the history of video games has had a 60% failure rate such as that crappy 360. Don't believe me I am just quoting news sources and magazine articles. Just google the words "Xbox 360 failure rate" and you will see how great the 360 truly is!!

  • -did it come w the game?

    -that looks like someone spray painted it

    -it could look so much better

    -i want to do an unboxing but have nothing cool to unbox

    -the controler is sick as hell

    -

  • did it even come with the game?!?!?

  • nope. it doesnt

  • i only kept the controller and hardrive

  • It looks terrible, my eyes are burning.

  • i was lookin at a swapmeet and this dude was selling a BEAT UP halo3 xbox 360 console for $400!!! that guy is retarded!

  • so it's smart to send it to Microsoft?? mine got the RROD today and I've had it 2 years (it's a standard edition xbox, btw) Do they charge you? and will they give u the same console back so I won't lose my gamerscore?? or would it be smarter to get a new elite or something??

  • my friend u never lose ur gamerscore unless you dont have ur hardrive keep ur hardrive

  • You keep the hard drive and faceplate and mail the rest to microsoft. There isn't a charge if it's RROD, just pay shipping to them. The elite is a nice system, but if you have one already it's the cheaper option to let them fix it.

  • keep your hardrive, your file is on it.

    if you dont know what exactly the hardrive is, look it up

  • halo 3 should of came with it

  • i got mine 2day and it came with halo 3 and it wasnt even the special edition

  • it dosent come with the game

  • how much does that cost in Australian dollars?

  • there no halo 3 game!

  • hey was this xbox 360 still cool a month later?

  • Unless you are a die hard Halo fan the Elite is the way to go. Much better value for the money.

  • Died the RROD and resurrected by Microsoft and it's faster and super quiet now. My friend bought one of the first 360's and had it sent off 7 times. He just ended up buying a new one.

  • i bought my 360 when it barely came out the one without hdmi, and its barely messing up on me. its not reading disc sometimes and sometimes they do work. i bought the new Modern Warfare 2 360 console and i think i like the halo 3 360 better but the 20 GB hard drive is a let down. :) i heard this new super elite is going to have updates on the disc drive and other things.

  • every xbox gets the update if you buy if new this time duh did uk noth think about that

  • It was around 400 bucks back then. I've never seen a reliable production rate on how many were made.

  • Thanks for sharing Chip.

  • Yes.

  • that sux it dont come with halo3

  • why does everyone keep saying the power brick is so huge? its getting more redundant every time

  • Yea it gets on my nerves when people complain about it, but that power brick might save your life one day that's what they don't know. Lets say one day someone breaks into your home and that's where the power brick comes to the rescue, now you have a power brick to defend yourself from any intruder. I bet you the PS3 doesn't have a power brick so huge that you can use to defend yourself with. Take that PS3 owners! Another reason to buy an XBOX

  • Dude lamest excuse ever at least come up with a reason like better online or somthing

  • i had this for 2.5 years and its still going fresh! i highly recommend to INSTALL YOUR GAMES!

  • i wish they made one for halo 3 odst instead of the little special edition controller

  • my dad was going to buy me this one for xmas but he asked my best frend what he witch xbox to buy me and he told my dad to get the normal xbox with the 20 GB hard drive that bastered wish my dad knew more about gaming consoles he would have got this version

  • About 5 minutes

  • I bet you got red rings becuase you stand your console up dont you

  • My console sits horizontal. It doesn't matter how you stand it really. The RROD happens because of a faulty motherboard with the integrated graphics card. After a while they go to failure at something like 70 percent. Other people say to stand the console up and that will prevent the RROD.

  • no the only time its a fualty motherboard is when it gets RRoD right out of the box the rest of the times are becuase of over heating standing your system up incresses the risk of over heating by 70 percent because when you sit your xbox up its siting on its main vent and bearly getting air out of the smaller vents witch is insufficant and has the xbox gasping for air

  • so did it come with halo/

  • HAHA, awesome Fight Club music

  • ugly

  • i have this xbox and it lasted like two years and a bit, i just sent it to get fixed but it lasted a long time (way longer than anyone i know). the nly thing s just make sure it is standing up and not laying flat!

  • great video, i just bought the elite and it rules, i love all the memory

  • The Elite is awesome. I really like the matte, black finish on them. I do wish mine had 120 gig HD instead of the 20 gig. If I want to upgrade the new HD won't match. Unless I tear them apart and switch the inside components. Enjoy the Elite my friend.

  • wow does anybody actually have the original xbox halo version, i do

  • how much did u buy it 4?

  • i heard that the halo 3 edition had problems playing other games online

  • That only problem I've had with other games online is that I suck. Not had an issue other than RROD. But it was worth sending it back to MS because it's really quiet and a little faster now.

  • lawl got mine maye 29 09 and had to ship it back 3 months to the date. im still waiting on it

  • Man, Microsoft is really generous to include all of that stuff. I just got a PS3 and there were like 3 things all together. Controller, Component cable and the system itself.

  • The PS3 is just way more machine. From the advanced processor to the blu ray. The internal components are just much more advanced. MS used off the shelf for the 360 and could afford to do that.

  • I got mine at a pound shop i did not get the head set though but i got the system and the hard drive so that counts for something.

  • didn't it came with a halo master chief helmet?

  • I wish.

  • I got this at like December 2007 and still works Halo ftw.

  • The production run right after mine started using the newer, cooler running processors. Those aren't giving any problems. You got one of the better ones.

  • That's gay it doesn't come with HALO 3 & its ONLY 2GB

  • very cool.

  • wat size is the hard drive on the halo edition

  • 2gb

  • It's 20GB, not 2.

  • 20 gigs.

  • cheer i got it to :D

  • Woot

  • So its Basicly an Elite but "Halofied"

  • no its an old pro halofied its only a 20 gig not 120

  • Basically. You lose the 120 gig HD and get the paint scheme and a recharge station.

  • well it looks verry very very cool

  • If one is a Halo fan it's cool looking. Other people just think it's green and ugly. Personally I love it.

  • its the Halo 3 logo on the xbox you stupid..

  • what up wit da music

  • From Fight Club.

  • nice

  • need help? join the forums at 911xbox(dot)com

  • but the controller is the shit i sold the console and bought anothr 360 but kept the controller

  • yuck at the colour

  • ugly colour

  • how much gb does it hold? and if i buy one from ebay will i get the red rings of death? cuz u cant find these in stores

  • dude no matter what xbox you get it will always get he red ring iv lernt that through experieence iv had 3 xbox and all my frends have got it what you have to do is get it fixed by a profesional i got mine fiixed so it is invulnerable to the red ring for 10 years

  • 20 gigs. If you buy off ebay as about the production numbers. Then put those in google and you'll find out if it was before or after the production run where they used the improved processor and motherboard. Mine was before and I got RROD.

  • i remembered when i got the halo LE xbox christmas is so ecited but then got RROD then i was F*&%^ pissed

  • how much was the halo 3 edition?

  • this came out a week before halo 3 came out same time i got mine so you could not have packaged the game cuz it was early also mine got a e 74 so i hope it is quite as yours when it comes back

  • wtf? u didnt even get halo

  • lame dosent come with halo 3 the game

  • why is everyone so cranky about halo 3 not being with the special edition whats the deal just by the game with it when you buy the console

  • This edition is sale now ?

  • where can u get them from please tell me

  • i got the same version of this 360 around chistmas of 07' and i got RROD about two weeks before you did

  • eu tenho o xbox elite beem melhor!!!

  • does the x-box arcade come with a ethernet slot? (i plan on buying 1 with halo 3)

  • i got this one it's not worth it at all

  • .... You dont get halo 3 with it WTF?? i mean CMON!

  • Lol its a halo 3 Xbox and you dont get Halo withi it what the fuck is that? hehe..

  • i know,i agree

  • no offence, but that looks REALLY weird..

  • where yo helmet at heard it came with 1

  • how much was this?

  • About 400 bucks. What you got was an HDMI port (not standard) and a rechargeable battery and charger. Plus the Halo themed 360.

  • wanna trade white xbox for that

  • LOL DO YOU THINK HE WOULD DO THAT?

  • where is halo 3 irw

  • lol fail

  • The Resident Evil 5 edition is the best looking 360 in the Universe! omg i love it.

  • I got to play it at a friends house a while back and it's one of the best looking games I've played on any platform.

  • Someone likes fight club.

  • Chuck Palahniuk is my favorite author. So yeah, I really like Fight Club.

  • fight club is awesome

  • that thing is sexy if only it had 120gb i wouldve got it

  • id say both idiot, there both great, no need to ague

  • u bought it in my birthday

  • Woah! Now thats a good looking XBOX360!

  • only that rrod doesn't makes it look good i got it last year and it ruined :s :p

  • What i like is the custom design that's all it's like Xbox 360 in Halo world lol

  • lol the k mart near my house still has 3 of does new in stocik & 1 opened for display.

  • PS3? you think the halo 360 is gayyyyyy? Dude the little shiney black and blue lit PS3 is the gayest thing I've ever seen. Seriously they are big in San Francisco. Do you have to wear lipstick to play one of those?

  • To anyone offended by the comment here. It was just a joke. jotaco123 was joking and so was I. The PS3 vs. Xbox 360 battle isn't to be taken seriously. I like both systems and think the PS3 is superior in a lot of ways.

  • Comment removed

  • i have the same one and ive had it as long as you and it got the three rings so many times and it hasnt stopped workin yet

  • i would be pissed if you had to send it in to Microsoft to get it fixed and they sent you back a normal white xbox 360 console >:(

  • Dude! I hadn't thought of that! It would be like Microsoft to f up like that too. At any rate it's going to be another week before I get the thing back. Which I find unacceptable.

  • it wud be great tho if i send in a broken arcade and they send back an elite : )

  • Mine actually work for a little while (30 minutes) after the RROD. But then.. nothing.

  • did you know you can fix the RROD by yourself

  • where can you get one

  • thay dont make em anymore

  • So, it dosent actually come with Halo?

  • since i opened the box to mine like this one human hands have not touched it...to move it u have to put on gloves to look at it u have to put on sunglasses and to walk by u must have clean shoes, feet and socks or else i will get RROD

  • Man that is great. I think while it is gone for repair, I'll build a small shrine and seal it behind glass in an air conditioned, humidity controlled, uv protected environment. Perhaps I can avoid having to send it in three times like my friends have.

  • where did uyou get it and how muck did it cost and in america or canada

  • how much was that???

  • I think it was 420 bucks. USD

  • I got RROD'd on the SAME DAY and I bought it around the same day that you did!!!

  • The court should have made Microsoft replace all these units with one that works.

  • dude cool vid where did you get it and how much did it cost and in america or canada did you get it plz tell me i don't got one but i want one

  • 420 bucks USD I think, with taxes.

  • its so stupid it doesnt come with halo 3 and is it a pro or elite and is that a wireless remote

  • It's wireless and includes a rechargeable battery and cable.

  • im suprised the halo 3 edition didnt come with uuuhh...halo 3:)

    im so scared of the RROD my 360s like my baby!!

  • I hoped I could avoid the RROD, but my babys gone for repair.

  • damn i cant wait till i get it.

  • I have a 360 like that ^^

  • i got the same xbox i donte let eny boddie tuch it it is my baby to me

  • LOL you sound like a 10 year old haha..
