No probs with mine - I use the rechargable pack though - unlike the PS3 - once these are knacked - you don't need to throw the controller away ;-)

never had a PS3 or PS2 controller go yet

Likewise, I use rechargable batteries and they seem to work fine.

BTW- anyone play COD4 on xbox live??

dxb335d · 10-27-2008, 08:40 AM

Im going to go buy some more ruddy batwah's and see if the shizer does it again.

I've had a PS2 controller fail - wire broke. No problems with PS3/Dreamcast/Wii/Xbox or Xbox 360 controllers so far.

Not played COD4 for a while but do still have it - great with a bunch of mates.

Ill check the manufacture date Paul but it's had very little use.

Not to rain on your parade because you probably would get that on ebay - but, I bought my 2nd 360 from Sainsburys for £100 new (only 1 controller mind and hard disk was an extra £20 from M$)

Good luck with the sale tho.

Should have said - depending on the manufacture date will get you more dosh if people are looking to "chip" it.....

dxb335d · 10-29-2008, 09:22 AM

can you only chip certain ones?

Yes - its dependant on the DVD drive you have in the box - the latest ones can't be flashed BUT you can remove it and inject the key from the 360 into a flashable DVD drive - this costs twice as much to do as a box that doesn't have that drive.

gr4z · 10-29-2008, 05:54 PM

Yeah be careful my first 360 was chipped and then I got banned from Live

Chucked it in the bin as it got the dreaded red light of death and bought another. Never looked back...

Why did you chuck it - they have a 3yr warranty for that fault? As you figured - "chipped" boxes are not to be used on Live.
