Customer Review: Not the newest version
After contacting Amazon.com, they apologized, which doesn’t fix the fact that this Xbox360 system is not the newest one with lower power usage and the updated chipset. Amazon.com offered a refund as they do not have any newer version available.
Customer Review: Typical 360 Experience - Including Failure
My console and game collection was stolen in a home invasion, so I had to look at the current XBox 360 offering so I could replace my 360 Elite.
I was very disappointed with the offerings. It’s an XBOX 360 and therefore it lets you play your games, but this far into the product cycle, I’d expect so much more. However, if you want a large drive and HDMI it’s the only choice you really have.
Here are a list of the problems I encountered, most due to the product itself:
[--] It is advertised as “the newest” version of the product, yet it is using the older chipset that is prone to E74 errors.
[--] The HDMI cable that comes with it is garbage. I plugged the 360 into my Denon 3806 receiver using the HDMI cable and there was no signal. I then plugged the 360 directly into my 60″ Sony SXRD via HDMI and there was no signal. I plugged my Digital Cable box directly into the TV using it and the picture was faded, blurry, snowy, fuzzy, dark, purple, unwatchable. I used another off-the-shelf HDMI cable and everything worked perfectly.
My PS3 didn’t come with an HDMI cable at all, but what’s the point of providing a component that doesn’t even work?
[--] The two games come in a single combined case. My case was smashed and green plastic chunks were all over the place inside the product packaging.
[--] The headset that comes with the 360 continues to be disposable garbage.
[--] At the current price of this product, Microsoft should be providing a rechargeable controller battery by default rather than a pack of AAs.
[--] The XBOX 360 Elite packaging itself (the box Microsoft ships it in) had clearly been opened before I got it. The circular adhesive tape that closes one end of the product had been cut open and then a second piece of tape had been placed back over it. To Amazon’s credit, when I asked them to confirm if I had a used 360 or a new one, they didn’t even bother answering and just told me they had already shipped out a replacement that would arrive in 24 hours (and it did).

Microsoft: Don’t worry about Xbox Live ads (Ferrago)
Major Nelson promises not to intrude Having confirmed yesterday that the Xbox 360 Dashboard will be getting web-style adverts delivered over Xbox Live, Microsoft have moved to assure Live users that the ads they serve won’t interfere with the experience. Perhaps understandably, the community reacted badly to word on the new ad plans; some Gold users claiming that only free-loading Silver types …
