That's just about tragic that people are already having GPU problems.
Guy Legend said:Really anxious to see what the $199 model will have. If it retains wifi and has a smaller hard drive, I might finally jump in.

Hawk269 said:I would think it would retain the Wi-Fi because the case does not have a place to snap on the wireless adapter and I doubt they will make a new case for it. I would think it would have Wi-Fi and maybe a 20gig HDD for 199.99 would not be bad.
I knew it. They're just doing what both they and Sony have had to do to clear out old systems time and time again.Pagusas said:Microsoft confirms $199 Xbox-S for fall. No details about HD or Wifi included.

EDIT: Has anyone traded in a MW2 Edition 360 yet? What value did you get for it?
Vyer said:I've always been used to powering on my 360 with my controller.
Interestingly, I noticed that the S doesn't fully power on the same way. It will only when I am on the right input on my TV. The lights will spin on the controller but it won't 'catch' until I have switched to the input. Not a big deal, but is this normal? I never noticed it before.
SilentProtagonist said:So, I'm thinking about getting a slim60 tomorrow.
Is there any place where I can see exactly how much I can get for trading in my hardware at gamestop? Or if someone just wants to tell me how much I could get for:
360 (no HDD, Pro model), wifi adapter (old one), Wireless controller?
Bonus question: Does MS sell HDD transfer kits without HDDs?
Awesome thanks!GamerGeorge said:

It is waiting for an HDMI sync to boot. Its the odd thing about the 360: If it does not have a video feed, it with either give a 4 red light error (Composite) or no error, waiting for the HDMI EDID information from the monitor i believe. And considering my Zephyr did it as well, I think it might be using the same HDMI 1.2 spec.Vyer said:I've always been used to powering on my 360 with my controller.

What? I have over 50 installed right now!Gillian Seed said:What? You telling me that you can not Install your games on the 360 S? And do the original X-Box games work?
Unplug the HDMI cable. It won't boot until you plug it in i think. It might see a signal in some systems when it is off maybe?MegaKungFuRadio said:OK, I just turned on my system with my TV off and it booted up all the way to the dashboard. What's everyone talking about? What aren't I understanding?
EDIT: Oh, input... I'll try it with my TV off on another input?
theultimo said:Unplug the HDMI cable. It won't boot until you plug it in i think.
Kinda, but this is how mine is set up: I have a splitter on mine and when I have it set to a different input, it has no connection. It doesn't boot until I select the 360 input.MegaKungFuRadio said:OK, but why would I do that? Or are you trying to say it's a difference in how some TVs handle the connection?
theultimo said:Kinda, but this is how mine is set up: I have a splitter on mine and when I have it set to a different input, it has no connection. It doesn't boot until I select the 360 input.
Yup, exactly. My HDMI input is "unplugged" on the 360 when I select my PS3 for example.MegaKungFuRadio said:Oh, I see, like a component selector switch? Mine is plugged directly into the TV.

Diseased Yak said:Question: Do you have to also do the license transfer if you first do the hard drive transfer via the cable?
sn1pes said:Reserved one at gamestop on Saturday. First one in line there. Called today only to hear that they aren't expecting any until the first week of July. I really hope I don't get screwed out of the trade in deal.

Diablohead said:I like the old design with the grey "stripe" but it works better on the white pads then the current black ones, the new design going all black... I wonder why microsoft are more or less removing the white colour from their xbox after the last 5 years?
UltimateIke said:Just a quick question for those who have one - does the system still have the IR receiver on the front? I can't tell from the pictures, and I'll be pissed if my remote doesn't work anymore!
