throw it away and buy a ps3.

that WONT break so you dont need to worry about warranty or anything like that.

plus x box are crap anyway


I agree. Ps3 is way better. I've had both and will never go back to an xbox 360.


You're allowed your opinion, but as he said before this is his thread and it isn't ANYTHING to do with the PS3.

To be honest man what i'd do is ebay it broken, you'll probably get about £60 - 90? And that'll offset some of the price of the new slimline 360 :lol: ... That is if you've got the spare cash.



i had thought of that but when i checked broken xbox's only sell from 99p to a maximum of £15 :w00t:

Hope you invest in the new one.If you fix the old one you will still want the new one.
If they sell so cheap broken might be a good idea to buy a few and make a good one.I used to do that with the PS2 took me some time to fix them with no books.
I only have two games Left for Dead and Legenary for my PC.
The cable i said about is a must for some game Players or B-Ray Films. :rolleyes:

Alright, after tonight i'm seriously considering buying a PS3 at some point. the Xbox is a piece of JUNK. Xbox Live costs too much, you get a rubbish service for that, the damn thing overheats too easily and every tiny vibration in the ground causes it to carve a nice ring on my games. Oh, and no Gran Turismo 5. Bill Gates can shove it, i'm going back to Sony as soon as i can.

If i traded in an Xbox 360 Premium and about 10 games, and a PS2 with a fair few games, could i get a PS3 at Cex?
