Recently I've been playing on my PS3 and today I finally decided to take a break and plug in my Xbox.. thing is I press the power button on the console and there's only a light in the middle, so I go to my controller which is the old way I would turn it on and it just flashes in circles forever, I even changed the batteries many times and it's still flashing. Is there a new way to do this or is my 360 screwed?

If you have it hooked up to your HDTV through HDMI you will need to turn on the TV for it to sync.

It's because the Xbox is waiting for the HDCP secure link to be verified before it boots. The PS3 doesn't do this.
