    Hardware is swapping drives between 360's possible?

    thanks for the replys. i should have known it wouldn't be as simple as throwing the drive from one box into the other. both drives appear to be of the benq variety (peeked through the little hole to check the cable). guess i'll just open them up and give it a go. nothing lost if it all goes bad.

    Hardware is swapping drives between 360's possible?

    my launch 360 has finally given up and bitten the dust. i've got another 360 - a slim - so it's not so bad. however, a friend has offered to give me his 360 that is suffering from the "open tray" error and i have a question. both machines are the fat model, mine is a non-hdmi, his has hdmi. can...

    Retro Review #3

    out of all the consoles and computers i have owned, i still loved my amiga the best. along with the bitmaps, sensible and the geoff crammond, team 17 were always a byword for quality gaming. i'd totally forgotten about superfrog, but now i'm gonna track down and amiga emulator and give it a go.

    Hacking top screen scratched and need a new one.

    damn! it never even occured to me to check the official webpage. unlike the US, the UK site doesn't have any kind of store function. they list the items and cost, but don't actually let you buy them via the webpage directly. i've have to email the service centre just to find out how to buy the...

    360 and PC ver of CoD4

    i think this is the whole point. they would have to find ways to hobble pc users and artificially boost joypad users to even the playing field. i remember playing a ps2 game and thinking "lock-on? lock-on? what the hell is lock-on??? haha!". i played GoW on pc via my TV and an xbox joypad after...

    Gaming Guitar Hero III Customization

    a few people have commented that the rock band version seems easier than the GH3 original. this, for me at least, is a bonus. easier guitars + drums means that i'm pretty much buying rock band on its' release as it seems more inclusive. letting the young ones and i play together without them...
