it doesnt work at all? hmm take it back if u just bought it definfilty...take it back and say what happened...
you are innocent arent u? u didnt modchip it or try to open it or anything did you? then take it back
is it 2nd hand?like is it used? was it refurbished?

The xbox is new but halo is used so that is probally the reason but sega gt and the other one that came in the bundle dont work I am taking them back tommorow.
oh yeah it doesnt have any modchips in it so it cant be that I am confused
Or I will just forget it and get my money back and get something usefull or more ps2 games but I will try one more time for a non defected xbox.:(

Guys I got halo to work I applied some cd cleaner to work I took it over to my friends house after that and it works and halo is a pretty good game I havent got sega gt to work yet at my friends house tho. Well my mom picked my xbox for me at the store and she could of dropped it or something I dont know I will ask her about it. Oh yeah and makavelli why would I lie about it? I was looking forward to getting an xbox:(

@ makavelli54: Please do not accuse people of lying without having ACTUAL proof. He could have very well brought a 'lemon' home. It has happened before & it WILL happen again. (I mean with all types of hardware)
@ ps2freak: Good luck!

Man ps2freak, that sucks. Hope you get a better one. Makavelli, what's wrong with you?
I know man honestly.. Makaveli will possibly do ANYTHING to defend his buggy and as CL puts it 'lemon' system... :rolleyes: - listen millions of xbox has been returned with the same issues. Microsoft WILL fix it, but many people have had to ship it off, and pay money, and all sorts of other crazy things. Just try to get a full money refund and spend the money on something MUCH more usefull :rolleyes: ;)
-NOTE: I say we give makaveli a big fat title saying "MGF's Fan-Boy of the month" :D

@ps2freak, exchange for a new X-box. Dont even waiste time on trying to fix it. What happens if it breaks in the future again. Best bet, get a new one.

Ok guys I think that is enough at picking on the xbox for a few bugs. I have pretty much all the cd based gaming systems and the only 1 that has ever failed to operate correctly is my PS2! I am currently on my third one. 1st ver 4 lasted 1 hr before it quit reading cds/dvds, 2nd ver 4 lasted at year and when I tried to get it replaced Sony laughed. So I bought another, it is a Ver 5 and I have had it about 9months but it is hardly used anymore. Yes first gen xboxes had bad lasers and a few hardrives crashed but it is nothing like what Sony put on the market! A machine that they KNEW would sale and you would have to buy at least 2 over a span of 5 yrs.

I turned it on? I am sure every cd based system has some kind of hardware problems, all I am saying is this nick picking on xbox is unjust. I guess no one ever heard of the ps2 laser problems,psx over heating? The newer versions of PS2 have better lasers and cd drive doors but when you add up all the extra consoles that have been sold due to shotty equipment it really makes one pay attention.

No I dont have one anymore:( I needed the money so I sold it to my friend for $150 with one game but I go to his house alot so I will get to play it every day anyways plus he said he is getting xbox live so I might see some of you guys on live some time Ghost recon oh yeah;)
But I think socom is much better than ghost recon I have ghost recon for pc so I know what I am talking about.
