lol, my friend's 360 broke today. Mine broke a couple of months ago. It's all good now though (at least I hope)

Hmm, well really there was no guarantee that the new chips were going to fix the problem. In fact, wasn;t there an article that said that really the problem was with the GPU not the CPU, so hence replacing the CPU with 65nm chips instead of 90 nm wasn't going to help much.

that is pure awesomeness. i knew those chips would solve nothing. sorry about your 360, honestly. ive had 2 die on me, but you gotta see the irony in it all. itll never end, itll never be fixed. azshorty2003

I guess you missed all the posts questioning if the pictured console has one the new Falcon chips inside it...and all the other posts that fail to prove that this machine indeed has the newer chip.

The irony of it all is that some people have had 2 to 5 machines die on them...and here I am with a launch 360 that has given me absolutely no problems at all.

Things that make you go hmm, huh?

The more you love the Xbox360, the less it breaks down. :lol:

Like it or not the 360 is still suffering from a poor design flaw and a new chip wasn't the answer. A total redesign is in order.

Like it or not, the Falcon chip promises to fix the design flaw. You are speculating that the chip will not fix the problem. If you believe the nonsense a couple of SW members posted, then your decision making abilities are very much lacking.

I will wait for evidence - pro and con - to start coming in.

I have a launch 360 right now, so the Falcon chip will not affect me one way or the other...but it is reasuring that MS warranty will take care of any problems I might have.

1. That's not the TC's 360, so stop feeling sorry for a fanboy who just searched forums looking to download something to make the 360 look bad.

2. That's not a Falcon 360. The manufacturing date is too early.

3. Therefore this thread and topic is pointless.

4. Have a nice day fanboys.

Umm....not many people felt sorry for him.This thread was more like an argument on if it's real or not...:|

However, I agree that the manufacturing date is early.

falcon chips aren't in all the halo 360's. it could be fake too. three rings light up if you pull out the power cord or av cable or something.

[QUOTE="zaid55"]the falcon chips were put in some of the 360s. IF MS keep this up im a gonna have to buy a PS3 :'(DeathIsARight

Having a PC and a PS3 makes more sense anyway. By not having a 360 what are you really missing?

Nah Wii60 combo is more effective.

Again, getting a 360 is pointless. PSPC makes more sense and get a Wii if you have some cash lying around. But a 360 is a ripoff of epic levels.

oh really...I guess the ps3 is better because instead of playing games I can use it as a grill...I am sure that is worth 500 bucks
