So we will assume from your statement that you're correct shall we?? I am afraid that the odds are stacked against you though with over 10 million units already sold and of course there's xbox live which when it comes to consoles is second to none!

You are entitle to your opinion however this thread has been created for owners, so unless you have something worthwile or constructive to write I suggest you don't bother.

Well said and completely agree

Knowone wants this thread ending up closed because of arguing over which console is better so if you either aint got a 360 or nothing constructive to say which wont start an argument i say stay out

On another note my Lost Planet faceplate came today, tiz very nice in fact i think i like it better than my PGR3 one, it blends in with the console better




And a quick pic of where my 360 is now situated, inherited the cabinet after we got a new TV with stand......on lookout for a HDTV around the £600 mark for myself to replace my current TV

Don't stand your console vertically. I have a friend who works for Microsoft XBOX R&D dept. and he said to me that he's been hearing things about discs being scratched or even eaten by the console (getting stuck so that the tray doesn't open)... Not good. Keep it horizontal, even if it is inconvenient, was like that for me, I used to have it vertical as it was easier to keep that way but after hearing this I found myself a small table to keep it on horizontally (more stable as well this way).

Will Microsoft consider this under there warranty? I only ask as i want to keep mine horizontally as its easier, i know you said not to but its only a console in the end.

i've read a lot on this... there is no real proof but on a lot of forums it seems that more people standing their xbox vertically experience the Red Lights of Doom than those standing them horizontally!!!

So there maybe something in it!

EDIT

And Scottt if ya wanna sell ya PGR face plate I'll give ya £20+p&p

I was reliably informed by a guy at my Gamestation that you should never shut the console down via the controller midway through a game, ie) you hold the guide button down and select shutdown console, as this leads to scratches on your games

P900 Lover - The red lights of doom is when the green lights on the front of the xbox go red... Normally it means hardware failure, but there are a few other codes, red the manual it tell you them all in there!

shite... better be careful not to do that in future then.

My TDU disk has a couple of scratches on it, i use my 360 on my PC monitor sometimes when the regular tv is being used (not very often) and i stand it vertically. Ive actually had it crash a couple of times saying 'the disk is damaged, dirty, or unreadable' when im in a showroom or my garage. Horizontal indefinitely in future then

@scottt, like the LP faceplate. Certainly blends in better with the colour of the console. How are you liking the game? I had a quick bash on a mates yesterday and it was quite difficult, but looked impressive

Moved mine... now in horizontal position!

Sorry about bailing on the race earlier guys my missus wasn't in the best of moods then the cat puked(left a stain on the sofa).... And besides... i've decided i need loads more practice in A Class cars!!! I'm shite! I was first for all of 30seconds in one race, then again for about 2secs in the other but finished 5 and 6th both times lol!

I'm only 60points off Champion level now!! Yay! And i've only gotta do 2 more single player challenges to get 40 points!! Almost there!
