So you want to buy a console? Well, you've hopefully come to the right place! Welcome to the first episode of this series in which I aim to dissect one console per episode and take that time to educate you all on any worthwhile features, any "GOTCHA!" moments to look out for, revision differences to keep in mind, and finally... Modifications! This series does not serve to be a "buying guide" in the traditional sense, so you will not get many peripheral or game recommendations from here. Optimally I want to show people why they might want to consider a certain older game console, and if they pick one up what they should look out for, as well as modifications they can perform in the future.
Why?! The interest is there! In 2017 my best performing video on this channel was a PS2 teardown/modification video, and I noticed that videos focusing on these older consoles were getting a considerable amount of views. Many people also told me they got so excited from these walkthroughs and tutorials that they went out and bought up these old consoles! Whether its practicality or nostalgia, I couldn't tell you for sure, but the interest is there! Even so, my biggest video of 2018 (and top performing video on the channel overall) has been a Xbox 360 video. Yes. 2018. Xbox 360. I can't make this up.
This video has been made with Fair Use in mind and has been created as an educational piece of media.

I used to get 360's from ewaste and restore them to usable conditions. Never found a RRoD'd Jasper out of the 100+ 360's I got. Most of the time the dvd drive belts were just slipping. That revision is (in my opinion) for sure the most reliable.

I know this comment is a year old, but I will definitely confirm this for anyone trying to buy a 360. My 1 year limited warranty according to my microsoft account page expired in 2011. As much as I hate to say it this console has seen some warfare. I happen to be a smoker, 1 or 2 drops on hardwood. Neglected to clean out the internals until semi recently. But it has never RRoD'd on me. Most I ever get is the occasional sticky tray. It works perfectly, despite being quite laggy sometimes. It is without a doubt the single most reliable fat motherboard imo.

@hyzenthlay7151 6 лет назад

I totally disconnected from gaming for a long time (about 10 years) and decided to get back into it last summer. I got a cheap second hand Wii U to enjoy Breath of the Wild and a number of other games on that system, and I got an XBox 360 S really cheap and am really enjoying that console. The games may be old, but they are new to me, and there isn't much on other newer consoles that would make me go with them instead of what I did opt for This video is DEFINITELY for me!!

@hyzenthlay7151 6 лет назад

Just found out it's a Trinity... thanks for showing how to identify it!! I find this information is also good even if I decide not to mod it in the future, because knowing there is something that can be done should the DVD drive decide to fail is good... although I tend to fully install the games I'm playing on the hard drive, and that's easy to replace should it fail, and it takes some of the stress off the DVD drive. I can get a Kinect sensor from the same store I got the XBox from, and they have them for about €6 (plus €6 shipping)... I may get one next time I get something from there, as they charge same shipping for 2 items as they do for one, and then i have it there to collect dust!!

I am one of those Laggers that completely missed the Xbox360 and for that matter the PS3 as well... I have been a PC Gamer for a long time so I just never invested in consoles until 2020 when the Covid shutdown resulted in just enough boredom to make me buy both a 360 and a PS3. I immediately jailbroke the PS3 and that kept me busy for a while but when the 360 arrived I actually created an Xbox account and took it online and I may not even RGH it, I may just collect physical games for the 360 cuz I'm nuts like that.

@MrMario2011 4 года назад

Have fun! The PS3 and 360 are such a treat to collect for right now, tons of great titles to be found for cheap.

About the lan/wlan stuff: you can grab any kind of repeater (or router capable of working in that mode) and simply hook it up with the fat x360 lan. Its solves the lan/wlan problem, and a repeater/router have way more powerfull wifi than those dongles.

@R3APER50 2 года назад

Know this is 2 years old, but still had to reply, all YOU needed to know is to get a jasper xbox, xbox 360s or e model. Because of low failure rates. Everything else is about how to pretty much hack the xbox, something that your pre teen son probably doesn't know how to do (I'd imagine if he did he would tell you to buy a rgh xbox off ebay and that he'd probably guide you to do or tell you which model to get). This video is mainly for xbox enthusiasts that like to modify the system to play backups of games or games downloaded off the web. (Which is technically piracy)

@MindBlownModz 6 лет назад

Good info... especially about the jasper board! I circumnavigated the "fat" wifi dongle problem using a laptop/cat 5 ethernet and internet connection sharing... Which could make a short and informative bit of info for your subs! 😆 & also Ive found AMD chipset pc's are more compatible than Intel for many xbox mods...

Awesome video! I never had an OG Xbox and actually got a 360 to play the Rareware games from both gens and flash the DVD Drive for fun. It was a liteon one too so the extra challenge was nice. That and upgrading the 20Gb HDD that came with it. The console itself is a launch Arcade Xenon which has yet to get RROD believe it or not. Guess its one of lucky few that are true warriors. The fats are alot of fun to tinker around with.

@yoshubrown8132 6 лет назад

Found out I got a Jasper and a Trinity. Pretty excited about that. I guess I won't sell my Xbox 360's then. I can vouch for the Jasper being a reliable console as I guy randomly gave it to me missing the power button, faceplate and literally internally buried in what seem like pounds of dust. After a full clean out of dust, debris and hair I was amazed it came on and it kept coming on. Planning on getting a replacement power button and modding the Jasper or the Trinity down the line. Just wanted to say thank you for your instructables, as I am one of the few lady modders out here, who sometimes sells and you have help a bunch. Much appreciated.

@Dark_Jaguar Год назад

Five years later and I stumble across this helpful video. I had one of the fat 360 models from back in the day which died on me, so I replaced it with an S. Like you, I prefer that matte finish. I've since found scrapped units and went and swapped the black trim on the sides with the chrome trim from another model. The black trim actually looks really nice on the white S by the way, so it was a straight upgrade for both models. I also certainly appreciate having that extra 4GB of storage to play around with. Thanks to your video, I grabbed an older fat unit online and got it restored inside and out. It turns out to be a bit of a rare bird. The internal makeup shows all the signs of being a Jasper v1, but it's got a clearly marked Kronos chipset as well as solid state caps, like some kind of in-between unit. Manufacture date is 2009-07-17 so that might say something. In any case, after replacing the all-too-fragile faceplate with an intact unopened "woodgrain" one I snagged off eBay nice and cheap, the thing's looking very nice. I also have a HD-DVD drive which I can use as a USB multitap for connecting all kinds of extra peripherals to make up for it only having 3 USB ports. Ethernet to it's spot is no issue either, so won't be missing the wifi. Now it's only a matter of deciding which of these two will be my main "Live" unit and which one will be my hacked unit. Your video indicates the Jasper is the easier of the two to mod... but I'm still not too sure. Heck I may just wait it out until MS turns off the 360 servers for good and just mod both of them at that point.

@OtroRedheadMas 5 лет назад

Mr mario, you should do a video about fixes and for common 360 failures, like a stuck drive or quality of life mods like replacing the stock thermal paste. Recently I was given a Resident Evil red elite that had been gone through hell and back and I had to do a disk drive belt and thermal paste replacement, after that not only it ran cooler but quieter and the disk drive opens with no issues. So I think it would be helpful for everyone looking for extending the lifespan of their consoles.

I bought a console lot recently. I was pretty happy that it included a Gears of War slim. 3 out of 4 worked fine. Unfortunately, the GoW had an E82 Red Dot of Death. Can you swap out the motherboard and just disable the disc drive and then RGH it or would it give you issues? I know you can bridge some of the pins for the drive to get it to not have the LED flash. I just wanna know if it's possible to swap boards out. I'm not all that concerned about having a functional disc drive if it can be RGH'd.

@kevinboggs7952 10 месяцев назад

Question: Back in the day I had to send my fat 360 to MS a couple of times because of red ring, I was wondering since the second time I sent it back it has been going strong ever since, what all did they end up doing to the 360's when we sent them in? Did they just package up another at risk console or motherboard? Or did they eventually swap out your broken one with a better revision? Maybe I just got lucky and its still at risk of RRoD.

@kevinboggs7952 10 месяцев назад

Just curious what all did they do when you sent it back.

@safetyzone2962 5 месяцев назад

@@kevinboggs7952If you sent it in any time after about May or April 2008 you probably got one with a reliable GPU. The RRoD is caused by GPU failure, *not* the BGA on the board (the towel trick alone should prove this but for some reason it doesn't for some people). It's also not really heat related either since the underfill on the die (which is the main issue) would fail from simply heating up and cooling down. Keep in mind, the 360 was running at 75-80 C most of the time which isn't even too hot for most desktops, let alone a console or laptop. The only reason the PS3's failure rate was slightly lower is because it didn't heat and cool as much, but even with a fan mod or something the OG 360 consoles are still no more reliable than a phat PS3.

Does anyone know what the max size HDD is on an RGH xbox 360 for Internal HDD and external HDD?

@kevinamartin2011 Год назад

Hi I've managed to pick up a modded xbox 360 slim but I don't know what chip it has, I would like to upgrade the hdd for a bigger one and would possibly like to change software to the one I've seen on your videos would this be possible

@MrMario2011 Год назад

Yep

@illkickyourchips6298 2 года назад

Anyone got any good recommendations for a place to buy an rgh xbox? been thinking about going through Console Warehouse, but I'd like to hear about/consider more options before I bust out any money.

@markusaurelius4015 Год назад

I’m curious… is there a point of connecting to Xbox Live in 2022? I thought I saw that Halo 3 servers shut down just a bit ago. I’m recently getting back into my 360 and I have no idea what to do on Live in 2022…

M8 please help, i really want to put in a ssd in my 360 because i would like it to last much much longer without using the platter hdd as it's actual main drive

@FishBeeProductions 6 лет назад

I'm considering a 360 or the XBox One. Since u can play quite a few 360 games on the One I might just go with that.

@MrMario2011 6 лет назад

With more games being added it isn't a bad solution, although it will never have 100% backwards compatibility due to licensing.

@mattmc5069 4 года назад

i keep my 360 for retro sports games. Most are not compatible on x box one. I enjoyed this video very informative

Got 360 S corona mfg date is in 2012 do you have a video on how to mod it? Was looking for easy way cause soldering might not be my thing. Just want nes and snes emulators and offline moded xbox and 360 games with online option but not for online game play. Seen your dual nand video and dang i might be able to do that but looks difficult.

@MrMario2011 3 года назад

I don't have any videos on the Corona, not sure when I'll get around to one but there's a few others out there!

@Greenleech78 5 лет назад

Question....was the last update the 360 got safe for a flashed system? I don't wanna update my Xbox and it takes away my ability to play backups so I haven't updated as of yet.

@MrMario2011 5 лет назад

Yes

I have 250gb slim for online gaming, and recently picked up 60gb falcon v2 for rgh. As a pc user i enjoy evening online bf3 sessions on xbox360. Obviously 720p 30fps is no 1440p 288fps on pc, but its still quiet fun.

If someone has a flashed 360, can installing an OS firmware update overwrite the CFW on the drive?

@ultratechgaming199 4 года назад

In most cases it won't overwrite the CFW, tested on 2 of my Xbox 360 consoles.

@TheRealArtDoctor 2 года назад

So the slim model is better than the jasper model? But can you do pretty much everything on both?

@MrMario2011 2 года назад

Depends on personal preference. Slim: Smaller form factor, quieter, built-in WiFi. Jasper: Most reliably model hands down, no debate.

Can we get another video like this? Like for the PS2 or Wii U? or maybe even the OG Xbox?

@ChrisOTaco 6 лет назад

What if you wanted to play Japanese games but you can't on your north American xbox 360 what can you do?

@aliwashere81 3 года назад

You mention Jasper motherboard but there's 2 more successors to those: Trinity and Corona. What are you opinions on those?

@MrMario2011 3 года назад

I mentioned those as well.

@NotAGamer685 2 года назад

Comment number 500? I'll take it. I just ordered a 360 Slim with a 500 gig hard drive, currently shopping for an hd-dvd drive and maybe one of the newer model media remotes. Anything else I should get to go with it?

I already own a Slim since 2012 and I just bought a xbox 360 Elite because it looks the best

@mariodiy4517 Год назад

I used to use my 360 S to stream Crunchyroll, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Video, and RU-vid over the last 6 years. Unfortunately over the years, those platforms dropped support for the 360 app. Just last year, both Hulu and Crunchyroll dropped support. I do watch RU-vid or play some 360 games not supported on the Xbox One.

I saw a video on youtube yesterday, the guy said i need to avoid the chrome disctrays xboxes cuz they will red ring more often, is this true?

@MrMario2011 5 лет назад

The motherboard matters, not the aesthetics.

@demoknight4822 5 лет назад

Yes i know, the guy said that the chrome disctray models are older, but im not sure if hes telling the truth, I realy want a fat one, wich one should i get then?, the arcade or premium?
