Looks like Rainbow Six Vegas is going to be in need of a patch and soon since people are cheating their way to Elite status at an epic rate. Boosting is always unfortunatley a part of online gaming, but players have figured it out very quickly in Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and are playing like […]

Benjamin “Ben Heck” Heckendorn has done it, he has made an Xbox 360 Elite into a functioning laptop. The laptop is complete with an HDMI to DVI connection, IR sensor, built in keyboard and even a camera. Here he shows off by playing a bit of Halo 3 on his contraption, I have to say […]

Thanks to Scuba’s great post yesterday, I was able to snag a Falcon Elite to replace my 8th broken one. Hopefully this new system will be good to go and I won’t have to replace it.
First impressions: it’s deadly quiet. Much quieter than my old Zephyr Elite. It’s on par with my PS3 and Wii […]

Our good friend SpaceGhost has brought us a couple extra Loot Ninja faceplates. One was by request in order to match my new Halo colored Xbox 360 and the other a variant of the original one he worked up for drunk panda’s Elite. He will be working on the green one a bit more, but […]

After just over 5 months, my Xbox 360 Elite has kicked the bucket. I get disk read errors on every disk I put in the tray, whether it’s a game, movie, or audio disk. Good times.
This marks my 6th Xbox 360 to die since launch day. Yes, my 6th. F’ing ridiculous.
I know some people are […]

I recently took a trip to my local Best Buy in the hopes to find a 60 Gb PS3, both because of the $100 price drop and the fact that I wanted to watch 300 in Blu-Ray. So I stroll on into the mecca of all thigns electronic and make my way to the video […]

As you may or may not yet know, the Xbox 360 Premium consoles in the US will all be shipping with an HDMI port soon. So if you don’t want to spend the money on the Elite, you’ll have a chance to get true digital 1080p from the Xbox 360 with the newer Premiums.
The guys […]
In an effort to boost stability, Microsoft has been putting in an additional heat sink on the graphics chip of refurbished Xbox 360’s as of late. Now, that added heat sink is in all new Xbox 360 Elite models being shipped. Ben Heck, modder extrordonaire, took apart his newly purchased Elite to find the change.

With E3 hanging in the balance and coming up quickly what predictions do you have for this coming event?
I am thinking a big one will be the announcement from Microsoft that all of their Xbox 360 skus will get a price cut, thanks to their new chipset code named “falcon”, which looks to run cooler […]
