I got pretty lucky a while back and found a 360 Elite at a thrift store with all the cables and one controller for only $50. Works like new and still one of the best gaming purchases I’ve ever made over a year later.
A week ago i found a PS2 fat and a 360 at a local thrift shop. I already had a 360 and a ps2 slim, but they were sold for 25€ total, I could not leave them there. Complete with controller, cables and an hdd, working perfectly. I guess it was a nice deal.
I found a wii with everything except games so i got it for 15$ at goodwill, its a great console but i dont really like the idea of standing up, still im having fun with it and the WII definitely holds ups
@@Chuked Nice, the wii was so cool. If you place the sensor bar under the TV you can easily play sitting on the sofa. You can also adjust the sensitivity in the settings menu. I play standing only with specific games
i was at a thrift store a few days ago and they had a 50 percent off sale i already have a 360 slim but they had a 2006 xenon (non hdmi) 360 complete with all the cables and a hardrive for 14 ussualy 28 and i took it home figured for 14 if it dies it was worth it for the hardrive, also the warranty seal is still in tact and its the newer warranty seal it currently works well but a bit loud compared to slim
@@supbro293 the 2006 non falcon are super pron to failure and the motherboard flexing u need to re paste and get better air flow in to system before it fails
@@chriswright8074 i know that, as this is the first motherboard (xenon) its unreliable, so i have it well ventilated and when it gets noisy i let it rest i know that they are prone to failure but i dont really feel all that good about opening my systems, however ive been trying to keep it clean as removing dust helps it aswell
This is a decent to good deal for a 360 console, the disc drive on these are loud! My friend had one and we could hear the drive and fan noise and the tv was on a high volume! Nice video
I have the same 360 and it’s always worked perfectly and has 250GB hard drive, games stores all said they wouldn’t even give me a $1.00 for it. I kept it and found a newer model 360 slim that works amazing at a thrift store for $30. I had two of those white 360s over the years and each had zero issues. The slim model is really nice
I just picked up 4 xbox360, 5 controllers, al power supply for each unit and 2 hard drives and 2 kinnects for $80 online form a store never would have thought sold online. 🤐
7:35 You have UNO!!! Also I have the same model. It Red Ringed on me once, but I unplugged all the cables and power supply for a few hours, and it was back to normal. At least for me. User’s experience may vary.
Picked one up, also a version of the old design, but with HDMI for $20.00 on Craigslist. Disc tray was sticking, but as I suspected that was an easy fix with a q-tip and some alcohol. Otherwise works fine, came with a 125gb hard drive. Snapped up a bunch of old games for a good price over the last month or so. Even the dupes of games I own on newer hardware were mostly pretty good. Tomb Raider 2016 played and looked fine (obviously not quite as pretty as on the PS4, but good enough to play), only one that really disappointing me was Shadow of Mordor (terrible port, looked like it constantly dropped below 30 fps, texture pop-in, including on orc models while I was fighting them.)
I remember buying that model back in the day, never gave me problems. I got the the Wi-Fi adapter that plugged into the back which was like 100 bucks at the time which was insane. Ended up selling it when I got my slim which I have to this day and still play on.
For people who say it has the RROD on his console right now: Its only when you reach a certain extent of gameplay time on the Xbox 360 Fat that it starts to fail and has overheating issues. You always want to make sure you limit your time on these old consoles, as the thermal paste dries easily. Limiting yourself on these old consoles will prevent the thermal paste from drying.
I done the same thing,I am getting a working PlayStation 3 and now hopefully around Friday,is same model. I hope it’s work as well. I bought it so I can find out if it works or not and work on it and if does work I’ll clean it,mostly be in my room and the PlayStation will be the family console only in the living room.
If you see any part of the screen flashing, it’s a sign that an red ring of death is on the horizon. One of the reasons, why red ring of death occurred, was due to the cooling on 360 being poor causing the graphics chip to fail. So that loud xbox is a sign that might happen, in a couple years.
And people talk about PS4 Soundung like a Jet Engine they clearly have never had the OG Xbox 360! My PS4 Pro is still Quiet mainly because I take care of it. I’m thinking people who says that doesn’t 😂
You did a good deal. I suggest to change the thermal paste of GPU/CPU as soon as possible and the dissipators if they are not the ones after the RROD fix by Microsoft. The 360 is still a great console.
Nice ! I have the OG 60GB XBOX360. Mint condition with maybe 80hours of gameplay on it. Im a PlayStation man so thats why my 360 is pretty much like new.
My Cousin got the Original White Xbox 360 for his 8th Birthday in August 17th 2008 and it Lasted for about 4 Years and it went out in late 2012 because it was so Old and he got the Xbox 360 Slim as a Replacement before Christmas 2012
The biggest problem with the old consoles is getting a controller that's in a good shape (I had two 360 controllers and both of them had problems with the LS button, one of them didn't work at all).
I found a xenon Xbox 360 with 10 games and 2 controllers for 50 euros, but for the same price I found a jasper with 8 games and 2 controllers with a Wi-Fi adapter for the same price. Which do you guys consider is more worth it?
Xbox 360 is where my gaming journey ends. I have enough games to see me through to death. I don't see a reason to upgrade. If I get a 4k TV then maybe I'll get a series X one day but I'll always have my 360s
I remember when I was playing forza motorsport 3 and it died with the red ring of death that game pushed it to the limits it had xbox one X Graphics was really good for it's time
Can i downgrade to the 2009 Dashboard, because i have the newest. And can i Install with the Older Dashboard games from USB Stick? (I have an Xbox 360S)
I bought one for £20 with the hard drive missing, mine is the slim model, bought a 250g hdd for £10, bargain.. still love this console, lots of cheap games available, to think about 9 years ago I paid nearly £250 for a brand new one.?
i did the same but on fb and ended up with the halo 3 fat 360 was broken without anything but the unit but a quick fix later and its defo made my money back payed $15 for it
Did I get a good deal?
Yes
Yes, I would say that you did.
I would say yes
buy it from gamestop again lol
at my goodwill u can pick up a 360 slim for 30 with cords and 2 controllers and 25 for a ps3 slim with 2 controllers and cords
Out of all the 360 dashboards over the years that dashboard the one you’re using was my favorite. Brings back so many amazing memories.
Same, I was upset when they updated it. This one was great.
Yeah this one and the First one was very very nostalgic. Definitely brings back memories. Badly for me. I miss them so much

It happened to me too, I saw a PS3 selling for $30. And I'm surprised it is working with a free mysterious CD game inside.
Kinda a lot for a Xbox 360. I got a 360 s for 10
I got my Xbox 360 elite for 30$ and it has the NXE dashboard
Nice find, especially as it looks to of not been switched on in 10 years!!

Keep them and wait some time, they may go up in prices because of collectors.
@@fafafoi7311 yeah definitely, I have a pretty complete collection of consoles now so I'm not interested in selling them

@@Chuked dang your everywhere lol
Console 100% needs to be taken apart and cleaned and some new thermal paste would work wonders.
Mod the case for better airflow
The original Xbox 360 has no thermal paste only the slim and
360 E has thermal paste
@@Sai_YT7 how? No paste?
@@Sai_YT7 what 💀
I read the thumbnail as "Rings Back Memories". Lol
LolL
Lost my Xbox One to a house fire so my 360 is back on deck my grandson is loving it.
hope you all fine
Imagine if he turns it on than instantly a red ring or you know the rest
No please.
That dashboard brought me back HS memories playing MW2 everyday after school 🥲
I loved this dashboard! I don't know why they thought the flat looking UI would look better and the avatars, wow a whole different era 🤣

Bad choice you just wanting for it to fail

Still have my 2005 xbox 360 to this day.
This is a decent to good deal for a 360 console, the disc drive on these are loud! My friend had one and we could hear the drive and fan noise and the tv was on a high volume! Nice video
Never update it, please! Because any update you apply to it could update the whole dashboard. That’s the rule.
Coolio good to know
With consoles that are on an older dashboard, you also have to be careful what games you put in it, as the update is on the game discs
Nice. I still have the original launch Xbox 360... the one with the “Blade” interface. I’m never gonna update that sucker!
yes don't even connect it to the internet. you got a piece of history in your hands!
You should probably be careful of what game discs you put in it, as game discs have update files on them

Dude no way you got the Xbox on an older software update that brings back so much nostalgia
mine updated automatically and to this day i still don’t know why
even with mw2!! actually gave me chills seeing the dashboard
@@pogmothoinriiii it's because older consoles will auto-update if connected to internet

absolutely worth it i still have my one plugged up im playing* a few games that are not available on the newer consoles like the F.E.A.R trilogy
F.E.A.R is a fantastic game, and also some of the older Silent Hill games are only available on the older console.
The best Xbox and best console of all time. So many good memories on it
@Risen General I disagree but I respect your opinion
My favorite consoles are ps2, Xbox series x and OG xbox
I just bought ps3, 7th gen in 2021 is so fun
@Risen General nice to hear I’m not the only one that’s barely beginning getting into the 7th gen
@Risen General i had x360 in 2012, but i sell it last year for switch. i missed 7 gen, so i bought ps3, and oh man, sony exclusives are amazing
I've had mine for about 6 to 9 years now. It's still dead silent
Mines from 2008 and still works. Amazing💫
Same
Please please do not update it at all
My 360 elite is fairly quiet even when playing games. It’s the Jasper model.
Cool I wish I had one for myself to chill for the weekends
Could I have yours Evil Turkey
@@leticiaagyeiwa1603 no you can’t.
Thanks for your reply Evil Turkey
I have elite and it's not that quite even if I clean it every week it's still loud when reading discs. When I'm playing from hdd it's quite.
i love your videos and i love how you still buy old consoles when the ps5 and x box series x are out, just like me!
I remember buying that model back in the day, never gave me problems. I got the the Wi-Fi adapter that plugged into the back which was like 100 bucks at the time which was insane. Ended up selling it when I got my slim which I have to this day and still play on.
🙃 not everyone had WiFi back then
@@timelymirror7826 you know what, you’re right. Didn’t think about that lol 😂 that’s why it was so expensive, makes sense.
What's the link to the monitor that you use when you test consoles?
While ps 5 and xbox series x launch, i still playing game with my xbox 360 after 11 years passed.
Maybe you should arrange a Killing Floor 2 game session for your subscribers. It will be a lot of fun.
I just got an Xbox 360 E for $8 from a yard sale but it had no controller
lol man I bought a XBOX 360 Elite 120 GB 1st Gen HDMI plus cables for only 9.50€ on ebay !!
2:41 I couldn’t tell if it was the Xbox or my phone screen that was dirty

the dashboard and the game inside of the console is so much of a time capsule

I bought it so I can find out if it works or not and work on it and if does work I’ll clean it,mostly be in my room and the PlayStation will be the family console only in the living room.
That dashboard looks pretty good, imagine if they made a modern vision of it
search up 1st xbox 360 kinect dashboard its the same but more modern
That was really interesting, thanks for uploading. So cool that you got a free game too! I reckon you definitely got a good deal 👍

I think this was an excellent find, cause older dashes have a good value, that was an excellent price for that 360
bro you got lucky that’s a really early dashboards! so nostalgic
@ikillyoucake yea i agree but i remember this one more
It's not the very early but ok
Best dashboard of all time!!! I wish we could choose our own dashboard 😞
Me to dude
And people talk about PS4 Soundung like a Jet Engine they clearly have never had the OG Xbox 360! My PS4 Pro is still Quiet mainly because I take care of it. I’m thinking people who says that doesn’t 😂
If its one thing I liked about the one Xbox I ever owned (just like this) was a magic eraser cleaned it up fantastic!
i still play this and the server still runs but not nicely😂💀
I bought one of my friend a black super slim from 2012 with kinekt and games for 20 pounds amazing deal
I paid $5 for mine. It is always fun finding a deal.
Great video😄

Nice !
I have the OG 60GB XBOX360.
Mint condition with maybe 80hours of gameplay on it.
Im a PlayStation man so thats why my 360 is pretty much like new.
You can try forza horizon 2 on that its a pretty good game
I use to have arcade game in your Xbox 360 when I had an Elite until 2013.
The xbox 360 brings soo most nostalgia
like from jacob ???
Maybe
@@jrob0021 i hope so youll be the first youtuber to

I miss Xbox 360 been so long since I played on one I do have my Xbox 360 E but hardly works anymore
that xbox is from the red ring of death generation, 3 days ago i saw one in a pawnshop but i didn't got it.
In my country you can get one for 50$ with all accesories and some games :)
Actually you can install the whole game on the hard drive. After that it load from the hard drive and it's not that loud anymore.
I still have this console it is actually amazing once I cleaned it out!!
I found a xenon Xbox 360 with 10 games and 2 controllers for 50 euros, but for the same price I found a jasper with 8 games and 2 controllers with a Wi-Fi adapter for the same price. Which do you guys consider is more worth it?
When it becomes a jet that's the DVD drive not the fans
I both one 1 week ago for 45$ with 2 wireless controls, and 4games
And still playing battlefield 3 online every week
February 22nd 2021 Ah Memories
Just got one myself! 4 GB Slim Model with kinect.
I just got a £9 Xbox 360 e with 5 games a controller a power supply and sum turtle beach headphones

I bought one for 36$ plus shipping and I rgh it sold it for 160$
I bought another xbox 360 for 5 dollars and xbox 360 slim for 3 dollars they work.
Two hard drives, you could up date the console on one hard drive and still have the older interface on the other hard drive?
Does that even work
no the update is stored in the actual bios on hardware so it wont work
dont stop making unboxing vidz!!!!
Pretty cool, hopefully it doesn't red ring any time soon lol
It most likely already has by now
my ps5 also sounds like a jet engine when i put in a game
February 13th 2021 Ah Memories
Awesome now you can mod it and play the Goldeneye remaster
I remember when I was playing forza motorsport 3 and it died with the red ring of death that game pushed it to the limits it had xbox one X Graphics was really good for it's time

no unless you mod the console you can maybe perform a downgrade
I still own a xbox 360 I have the newest one the 2013 edition it still works
Amazing find. I feel like in that condition it would be worth a lot more v
I got a white one for the same price with a controller and the power brick. The disc tray is starting to fail tho
Finally my man you made this video
