Console newcomer here... (wth... just played Crysis demo)
1. What is the talk about "unmodded" and "ori" versions of X-Box 360?
a) Let's say I have a 'few' titles I want to buy ori (Halo 3, COD4) while the rest non-ori... can I play both 'types' ? Believe me, I am true ori gamer at heart

"Nope. From what i know, you can't have your xbox360 to play both ori and [ahem] games. Dont' go to the dark side dude."

2. What about the quality of display on an LCD display (using 19", non-VGA port), will there be jagged lines/scaling/letter-box ?

"Refer this forum topic dude, lots of Info. http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/313601"

3. And yes, I am talking about the XBox 360 Elite, the RM19xx version... ; why do we need 20Gb or 120Gb hard drive for console games ?

" Hardisc is used to download demos, game video, patching and also save all your gaming data. I would recommend a 120gb hard drive because nowadays demo are getting bigger and bigger in size. Besides that, you get so many other accesories with the Elites."

4. Do I need to use the internet to do any stuff via the console?

" Yes, you need internet to play Multiplayer via your console. Example Halo 3, Gears of war......or i should say most of the game have multiplayer features."

5. How to play?  laugh.gif  Just pop in the DVD and that's it? The game starts playing? No caching or pre-installing or waiting time ?

"Yes, just pop in. No pre-install. But sometimes you do have patch for games through online. But its defintely more hassle free compare to computer gaming."

Please assist. Absolute (Absolute) newcomer. Have seen the beauty of the 'Black Box' Elite version... but I still think the white version of the 360 is the original look

I just check the pricing for Xbox 360 at lelong & ebay. Why is the Core expensive than Premuim? Izzit the new Xbox 360 with HDMI output? From wikipedia, it mention that latest Xbox 360 will have HDMI output & new heat seaker.

Dude... thanks !!! Finally I get to talk to people that I can actually buy stuff from...

For reference... how much does an ori game cost for XBox 360?

Also, being new, is it really neccessary for me to spend RM1,9xx for the Elite? I thought the 120Gb did not matter that much...

An ori game range from 150-170. depends on title.. Correct me if i'm wrong guys.


I think there's a lot of seller offering different price for Elite. Always remember, just consider a reliable and good after-sales dealer. That's more important than just a few hundred dollar cheaper.

Where else in Malaysia can I get the 150% original X-Box 360 Elite? Microsoft Malaysia ah?

Just thinking... I guess gamershideout.com.my is by far the best place for X-Box 360... they specialise in X-Box summore

Also...
If I get an X-Box 360 Elite... I will buy

- DiRT
- Gears of Wars
- Halo 3

3 games that I will play non-stop for 1 week before passing out

hmm...pls be cautious b4 buying. choose wisely and have more options. explore further n you see the darkness of what people think is genuine, reliable n honesty. we will not stop you but dun say we never warn you....to be safe why not give urself some time n widen ur selection. no harm though.....

A note regarding Intercoolers:

Don't get the NYKO Intercooler or whatever cooler. I used it and I kena RROD, took it off everything was ok again. Please don't listen to any shops that say it would prevent RROD or is a must or whatever.It will only cause more harm to your 360. Trust me on this.

At times you have to be smart and not believe what those shopkeeper says. Go around the net. Go to forums. Look around about the RROD issue.

Just get a fan to blow the back of the console and play around 3-4 hours then take a break. It works for me.

Intercooler > Causes Power Shortage to the hardware > Causes Hardware Failure > Causes RROD

Don't want to see a fellow gamer get screwed unsure.gif
