Noting wrong with grown up men playing games. However what sucks is when grown up men want to act as big boys, but don't have money to buy Original copies and have to result to pirating the work and sweat of others.
If you are worried about "Ring of death" and you opt to get a pirated xbox, you will get found out if you return it for repairs. Also using pirated Xbox may lead to your account getting blocked from xbox live.

Don't mind these people. I have a chipped Xbox 360 with 1 year subscription to Xbox live. The Xbox live network cannot detect if your xbox is chipped or not. It only detects if the games on the harddrive or cds are pirated. Think of it this way. An Unchipped Xbox can only play 1 region of games, either NTSC/UC NTSC/J or PAL. Chipped Xbox's can play any region of games and DVDS. THEY CANNOT DETECT IF YOUR XBOX IS CHIPPED, THEY CAN ONLY DETECT IF THE GAME CDS ARE PIRATED, SO IF YOU WANT TO PLAY OFFLINE PLAY WITH A PIRATED GAME, IF YOU WANT TO PLAY ONLINE GET AN ORIGINAL CD, BUT YOU CAN STILL CHIP YOUR CONSOLE!!

Promoting piracy should not be encouraged, but then we all have different views.  These people work hard for their handiwork. If you really enjoy gaming and a true fan, the least you can do is buy an Original copy.

it is not advisabe to get even the original xbox360. it is a complete waste of time. Research has shown that boys (15-18) go for the xbox while mature men (19-37) go for the Ps3 and babies, old women, paralysed people, mentally impaired people go for the wii. so the choice is yours!

I completely agree with this statement. The Nintendo wii is completely useless. If you want a real game console, buy a PS3. Playing games online on the PS3 is free but on xbox 360 you have to buy a subscription plan for 1 or more years!

the wii has oldsold the ps3 and 360, but has the wii made any game that has sold more than 2 million copies?. check. this shows and futher clarify my claims that the wii is just a gimmick, hardcore gamers go for the ps3, just the price that the problem, 360 is the cheapest console yet ps3 has sold faster than it year over year, except that it had a year head start over it's competition.

7 month ago sony was making a loss of $50 per console Sony no longer make losses on each console sold . with the new 45nm chip, a ps3slim would likely come this fall. by then the price would come down to $299 and Sony would once again dorminate the indusrty, remember when sony said they wanted some share of the casual market? sony motion controller (wand) with voice recongnition and force feedback would be out next year spring and would futher boost sales of the ps3 one interesting thing is that it would be forward and backward compatible, as the 360, Ea and other major publishers have already said they have had it maxed out. xbox 360 natal is just a wasted dream! just check out ps3 exclusive line up due this fiscal year~! Gran torismo 5 God of war 3 unchanted 2 Heavy rain the last guadian the agent fat princess white knight chronicles. North america and europe release final fatansy 14 etc,

Sony will never tell you they were making A PS3 slim, otherwise the sales will plunge dramatically, everyone would be waiting for the cheaper and slimmer ps3. i want to tell u that a AGAIN that A PS3 slim would be showed at the TOKYO GAME SHOW this september. as for the 800cd on xbox, i dont care, you would only play games, when a patch is released you cant apply it, you cant go online with it, and stuff like that. Knowlegable as u may be, u got things a little mixt up here.its the ps3 that is a wasted dream.tell me mister, hw can a large blueray drive,'water cooling system'and the processors be squzed into somthin not larger dan a textbook if you have seen the world slimmest high defination TV made by sony, you wouldn't have had any element of doubt. SONY is the largest consumer electronic company is the world. check out the pics (slimer than a slice of bread) WORLD SLIMMEST TELVISION.

Anyone know if the Xbox360 Arcade (the one without a hard drive) can be chipped too or if there is a way of copying movies and Music from an external Hard drive to the xbox360's Hard drive.

Insert Quote screw the ps3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!. . . . . . . . i hate it wen people argue stupidly about this shit that ea maxed out shit is a liesony you are not the first DUMB! guy i meet in Nairaland. you have no shame in you, what a wate of time. xbox 360 has been maxed out period. the best looking game in 360 is Gears of war2 and that can't even stand close to MGS4, unchanted, inFAMOUS. let alone KILLZONE2. (the best graphics game ever) now what do we see,? ps3 exclusives fighting ps3 exclusives in terms of GRAPHICS, PHYSICS, IQ, LIGHTING, GAMEPLAY and what have u. the demo of gran torismo 5 (GTP) kills FROZA (xbox 360 driving game). and the full game is not even out. i recall at E3 when tune 10 makers of FROZA were bragging that the games comes with 400 cars, 8 cars per race and everybody were like whoa, the next day came with polyphonic Digital, giving info about Gran torismo 5 (highest selling playstation franchise) that the game comes with; 800 cars 16 cars per race remote play with psp ability to use the psp as a rare mirror damage control. etc then we knew that it was game over. what makes you think Rockstar (makers of GTA4) was making THE AGENT exclusively for PS3 how about Quantic Dreams making HEAVY RAIN for the ps3 only. then team ico making the last Guadian. ( that game that made the BBC reporter go krazy) more? GOD OF WAR 3? dont even go there. have a nice day!

@ Kosovo
You like/prefer the Sony (PS3), we get it. This thread is titled "Is It Advisable To Get A Chipped (pirated)xbox 360?". I don't see Sony or PS3 in the title, so if you don't have any input, please beat it. Start a thread for Sony PS3 Worship and carry on there. Enough with the "PS3 is better than Xbox 360" already, Sheesh!

All those who insist that Nintendo Wii isn't a good game console have never looked at the sales charts, where the Wii is outselling the PS3 and the Xbox 360 combined. We all know where kosovo stands on this Xbox 360 vs PS3 argument, so just ignore him and go on with the discussion

PS: Gears of War 2 = 2 years in development KillZone 2 and MGS 4 have been in development for 4 years. No points for guessing the one with the edge in graphics.

also with a little research, it can be shown that the highest selling games on the various consoles are as follows METAL GEAR SOLID 4 (4.5 million as of december 2008) PS3 HALO 3 (10.3 million as of march 2008) Xbox 360 Wii Sports 45.71 million (as of March, 2009) Wii and if that doesn't appease you, check Mario Kart Wii (15.4 million)
So to the guy (BILL) get your facts right you are even more DUMB! than i could ever had imagined. how could your possibly compare the highest selling xbox game (halo series) to a game on the PLAYSTATON. you should have made comaprism against the highest selling PLAYSTATION game. (gran torismo series) GRAN TORISMO 5, should be game to make comparism with it, and it's currently not avialable. so how could you make a good gamming journalist?, when you cant even carry out a simple RESEARCH.? what a waste
