My launch 360 just bit the big one. So I'm thinking of picking up the Arcade unit to hold me over till I get mine repaired but I was just wondering if all of my account info and everything is saved on the hard drive so I can pick up right where I left off when switching my hard drive to the new console?

Bro be patient, I mean repairs are like 2-3 weeks right? Dont spend $279 on another 360 when you can wait for yours to get repaired for 2 weeks or whatsoever.

Yes you can throw your hard drive on the new unit, as your account is stored on there. (along with save games and DLC) so it should be pretty transparent!You can also store your account on a memory card and use that to log into any Xbox 360 without throwing your hard drive on there.

Yer probably right but its just that I'm a pretty hardcore player and I just dont know if I got the patience to wait a month to play all of the great games out now and coming out soon(COD4, Mass Effect...). :)

Dude, my 360 caught the Ring Of Death 2 days before Halo 3 hit shelves & I was madder than a motherphucker. My Xbox does evrything for me but give me head so I know this must be a kick in the teeth for you. It takes almost 2 weeks to get the box in the mail to ship it off & about less than a week to get it back. When mine came back (exactly) 18 days later, they threw in a free month card for Xbox Live so at least they try to make up for it. But there are lots of things to do without your Xbox like setting someones house on fire.

Just random info, like what happened and where do we send this box too. When I sent mine in it took about 10 days to get it back.

I was going to do the same thing! I called around looking for a Core, before the Arcade 360 came out and no one had it. So I just toughed it out and waited. I'm glad I didn't spend the money. It's not that big of a deal, it'll be back before you know it. Mine took 22 days
