I ordered the Xbox360 Halo Edition because it was supposed to have the new Falcon chip. After reading the reviews from Amazon, some people received the xbox 360 with the new chip and some didn't. When I received my xbox 360 it was from Lot #733 so it was still the old chip. I believe the Lots #734 and up are the new Falcon chips. I was disappointed that I didn't get the new chip but it was still less quiet than my previous Xbox 360 that overheated. Besides that there is nothing wrong with the Xbox 360. It would have been nice to have gotten the new chip since it was supposed to prevent overheating but if this Xbox 360 runs well it doesn't matter if it has the Falcon or not and I will be happy.Shipping was awesome!!! I ordered it Wednesday nite and I received it Friday afternoon on the Free shipping.
Best Deals for Xbox 360 Console Halo 3 Special Edition (with HDMI)
I ordered the XBox 360 Halo 3 Special Edition for my son, arrived quickly,He played it a total of 5 times and the unit locked up. After a couple of grueling conversations with Microsoft it was determined that the power converter was bad. They gave me a work order number and asked that I send it to my local repair facility for repairs, but weren't sure that this was going to fix the problem. I asked if they were going to send me a pre-paid mailing lable and was informed that "NO We won't pay shipping to the repair facility, but we will repair it for free." I couldn't believe it, we paid 400.00 for this over priced gaming unit which worked for all of 5 days, only to be told that I had to pay shipping to have it repaired. You would think that a company as large as Microsoft, that makes as much money as they do would at least pay the shipping to warranty thier products. But no dice. After being thoroughly pissed off by Microsoft, I remembered reading some reviews where people had some problems with items bought on Amazon, and had returned/exchanged them.
I called Amazon, explained the problem and within minutes had my return shipping lable emailed to me, and was told that they would exchange or refund the item (MY CHOICE) NO QUESTIONS ASKED! AMAZON YOU ROCK!!!! Microsoft on the other hand......I wouldn't trade them for a warm bucket of spit......
Honest reviews on Xbox 360 Console Halo 3 Special Edition (with HDMI)
The main reason to get this version right now is that you might be hard-pressed to find HDMI... this is no different than the xbox Elite, just cheaper and without the huge harddrive (which I don't need). The rechargeable controller is also a welcomed upgrade.This is a great looking xbox. The detailing is great, and I was surprised to see that all of the orange areas were as reflective as mirrors nice!

I've been a long fan of Sony. I've been debating on which to buy next, the PS3 or the X360. I bought the X360, mainly for Halo 3!Everything is wonderful and works great. All items worked just fine and was super easy to assemble, despite all the plastic wrappings and manuals. I also bought the HDMI chord for this, and let me tell you, the images on my flat screen are spectacular. The games I've played on this have looked amazing, and the movies looked better too!
The only bad thing is that the system is loud. I personally am not bothered by it, but I can see how others might be... especially if you can't put it somewhere enclosed... you'll then have ventilation problems.
Anywho, it's a good system and it looks real cool. It definitely earned me nerd points among my nerd friends for its looks, so thats kinda cool lol.
