Ready for the Xbox One?

[Endless Night]

My son is getting older and wants to ditch is wii and the  quote "baby games" ... so anyone (i know) offloading an xbox 360 for extra cheap shoot me a pm.

I'm going to use my 360 until it turns to dust and won't boot any longer.  The One or PS4 just don't seem to bring enough to the game to make me want to go out and buy all my games over again.  It's shameful of these companies to think that's acceptable.

I'm not offloading one, but they are cheap around my area on some classifieds sites.  e.g.   http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=218&ad=30918392&cat=&lpid=&search=xbox 360&ad_cid=1

Make sure you get one with adequate hard drive, that number will depend on whether or not you like to download games as opposed to purchasing the disk. Also the early gen consoles do not have built in wifi but the later gens do.

Like he said, adequate hard drive.  Look to verify it hasn't been open or modified.  You need to look up on xbox live's website whether the console has any flags against it.  You can put in the serial number and it will state if the console has been banned from xbox live.  Make sure you are getting controllers with it.  Have them boot it up and show you that it does function.  Put a disk in it to verify that it still reads disks.  Make sure that the disk tray will open up every time. Check whether or not you have wifi enabled on it.

If the outside of the console is white, it is an old gen console.  So be wary of it.  Check to see how loud it also is prior to purchasing.  If the fans are running loud and fast, means it is probably very close to going Red Ring of Death on you.
