xbox 360 red ringed again.....

[CexMashean]

I don't think either next gen console will be backwards compatible.

[Shorty]

can nayone tell me if the "new xbox" thats coming out will play the old 360 games? jr has about 4 billion games for the 360.

god bless.

If you wait until the next gens drop there should be a corresponding drop in the prices on 360's. Lots of people will trade in their old ones on the next gen.

the xbone is not backwards compatible.

Just go to Gamestop and pick up a refurbished one for 120 bucks or hit CL for $50. Either way. I just had to replace my first Gen Elite with the current one.

Xbox One won't be backwards compatible for 360 games at release, but they are talking about the potential for a cloud-based emulator to solve that problem at least for some of the more popular ones.

PlayStation 4 has the same issue...and I've heard they are considering a similar solution as well.

This is all due to a change in the chipset architecture...from the demos I've seen so far, it will be well worth the trade-off. By comparison, a bigger difference than what we saw years ago jumping from the original Xbox to the 360.

The new Kinnect and it's recognition capability is pretty amazing too.

Arcade factory will fix it with warranty for a 100 bucks. They are by North Hills wheel and tire off hwy 26

PS3 to PS2 was not backwards compatible for most.. Nothing new but it sucks ass either way.

Which quadrant? Put toothpicks in the fan blades, wrap it in a towel, let it overheat then cool back down. Fixed mine twice that way

I pulled Leah's sons apart and cleaned / reapplied the Heat Sink compound, then over heated it, and that fixed it. Took about an hour not counting cool down time. Found a you tube video on it.

Here's the primary video I used. Guy is annoying but it was useful.

I didn't use a hair dryer or towels. If it's all apart just don't plug the fans back in and turn it on until it manually shuts off. Did you look at the video I linked?

Note to self. Don't buy a used XBOX from Chili.
