Dude I do reflow's
But unfortunately I'm in the uk
I've done all sorts of consoles going back to the original ps1 chips all the way upto reballing xbox 360
What you need is some good quality rosin flux
Don't use liquid flux it's like water
If you can get your hands on a rework station
Ir is best but hot air will do
Get some heat resistant tape and protect the rest of the motherboard
If your only using a soldering iron a flat egde will be better as you need to heat up as many pins as you can if you try and do them one at a time you will end up pulling a pad from your motherboard and that's game over
It's also a good idea to warm the whole motherboard up as it helps to remove the socket and activates the flux and stops any heat shock to the rest of the motherboard cool setting on a hair dryer if your not using a rework station and cool the motherboard back down slowly when you finish soldering
