- I bought 39 untested Xbox 360 consoles from Goodwill, and man oh man this Xbox 360s have some THROWBACKS. I honestly cannot believe I found a console with the BLADES dashboard in this lot. And no just that, it had some A-1 stuff on that console... unbelievable. Let me know what you think!

The Xbox 360s I found in this video were LOADED with goodies… let me know which console is your favorite!
fire
I haven’t watched yet.. but that THUMBNAIL??
middle one was intresting cuz rare error
I'd love to see the blades get a second life. I wonder if any modders have worked on the version to boot games the require newer system versions.
Timestamp?
Fix the blades dashboard 360. Having a 100% working one is better than it being a paper weight for the rest of it's life.
What if I just press that update button?
@@jrob0021 I will banish you to the shadow realm.
That would be a big bummer
@@jrob0021don't man😊
@@jrob0021then it becomes just like all the other Xboxes it joins the army of the Metro don't want to contribute to Metro man do you
I think it'd be worth trying to fix the Blades dashboard 360. Cleaning it out and repasting it would make it last a lot longer. Case might be brittle, but that thing, all things considered, is most likely not too far from death already.
One thing I learned from goodwill is that some of the donated stuff usually comes from family of a deceased member sad but true maybe some of those profiles are of people who are no longer with us especially the ones that ended at the cv19 times
Yeah old souls from past update of Xbox.....
A blades dashboard 360 in a random lot of consoles is definitely the holy grail. It may not be the OG blades dashboard, but that's still a huge deal. Definitely fix that bad boy if you need to.
Why are the blades dash board high wanted? I have a Xbox 360 near pristine condition in it's original box on blades can I sell it and how much for?
Too much@@thealien_ali3382
@@thealien_ali3382because the blades dashboard was the Xbox for so many people. You’ve no idea the impact the blades had on people. Booting up and seeing that. Absolutely amazing times. The demos from that time bring back so many memories for me. And especially having the original gears of war ready to boot up. Just amazing
@@thealien_ali3382cuz blades dash best dash
@@kevinthomson95 I got a used 360 back when I was a teenager and it had a bunch of badass music that the previous owner ripped onto it. It had System of a down, slipknot, AC/DC, Jimi Hendrix, Red hot chili peppers. I didn't know about LimeWire, or how to torrent music back then so this was a huge score for me.
Back in late 2020 I bought an Xbox 360 from a Salvation Army in box. The condition of the box had its weres, but the condition of the console was basically brand new, wrapped in plastic, no dust or scratches, the same sticker that console 68 had was over the disc tray, even the wires still had their twist ties, but it didn't come with a controller. Once I bought a controller from a pawn shop, I set it up to make sure it worked, it started up like it was brand new, no profiles, just the initial set up. Best $80+ spent once I got the offical hard drive. Still use it to play OG and 360 games I come across.
26:16 That FH2: Fast & Furious game is actually super rare! That's an absolute jackpot! I'm jealous lol
Ohh thx for letting me know 👀
wait thats rare? i remember playing it a ton back in the day
Well it's rare because it was so shitty nobody wanted to play it, doesn't mean its valuable or anything like that
i love this channel! its always a breath fresh of air finding creators who dont overedit their videos and just get straight to the point while still being relaxing and fun to watch. that blades dashboard xbox was awesome! im glad you show all the old profiles on the consoles too so that this era of console gaming is archived in some way. excited to see what else the hampton haul brings :D
Glad you enjoy!
@@jrob0021 only videos on the internet i can find that show untested consoles thats actually good. keep up the good work.
@@jrob0021 These are pretty cool.
You definitely hit the holy grail with that blades dashboard though. Definitely the most exotic blades dashboard you are probably going to see in this day in age, although it is on the latest blades dashboard update.
I feel like in general, it just looks better than the newer ones. Avatars are like the only thing that stands out that is actually cool about the newer dashboards. I just like the blades look and feel more in every other way though. The profiles do have more personality and style from NXE going forward though. Before it was just some profile.
I think I am even more surprised that that Blades console actually turns on, let alone works and is not red ringed. That is actually pretty surprising. The disc tray is the only thing really jacked up. But judging from all of the stuff on that console alone, the thermal paste is probably hella dry. So that is really the only major concern. How this console manages to turn on still is a miracle though.
Crazy how much music, and game data/profile you found on that console. That was wild.
So interesting to see the preserved history of these profiles, seeing their last played games and their first played games. Seeing the minecraft worlds and all that is so crazy!
You might want to double check those consoles that have all the games installed. By that time in the Xbox 360 life, they would let you install pretty much any game to the hard drive but still required the disc to play it and I THINK its the ones that have the play icon on them. Did you notice some games just showed a controller and others showed a controller and a play icon? Black Ops 2 even had a download icon on it.
He’s probably gonna reset all of the consoles anyway considering all those games come from microsoft profiles
@@rokovq he doesnt i looked at his website
@@grimxy7451 ew.. thats weird. some of those xbox accounts could still be in use.. He really should reset them.
@@DuhDunraventhat was on them to do when they sold/donated it years ago? when you sell /give something like this unless you’re also just giving away the profile you’re the one who’s supposed to reset it i see nothing wrong with him selling dead accounts literally every account shown hasn’t been accessed for 7+ years 2016 wasn’t 3 weeks ago
@@slothschewgum i guess 2022 was 7 years ago?
its still a douche move from this guy
Fun fact, "Who Dares, Wins" is actually the Motto for the Special Air Service within the British Army mentioned at 3:39
14:17 I had this same Xbox and my dad always bought the cheapest one possible so I had the one with no hard drive and only 4gb internal storage to work with (such an oversight on Microsoft's behalf). I was 12 at the time and found an old hard drive on the literal street walking home from school, grabbed a screw driver and basically tore it out of its larger external casing until it was practically naked before jerry-rigging two styrofoam pieces on each side of it in the 360 HDD port to make it fit snug. I was wholeheartedly winging it and did it all with such a minimal understanding but when I booted it up, I was absolutely over the moon to see I had gained an extra like 30gb of storage and was finally able to bypass the "unable to download: no hard drive" issue I ran into in so many games back then.
This man got me into buying the xbox 360 once again to relive my childhood and I love watching ur xbox 360 vids the second hand one I bought was a 2011 xbox 360 Slim in matte black and it's been very well taken care off and never opened too hope to see many more of these interesting videos of these consoles
I used to be friends with Krogsund back in the day, So this video brings back very real nolgastic
That’s crazy
@@jrob0021I have tried commenting already but perhaps I am missing something as they aren’t posting. First Xbox was my old one! You nailed the timeline I think I donated right before college back around 2008-2010. Rob and Wohlgamuth used to come over and download their live profiles so we could all play splitscreen online Halo online. One of your viewers was kind enough to find me on gamebar and tell me about your video thank you for sharing!!!
This is a great video, just like always! All of your videos lately have been really nostalgic seeing all these older consoles. I actually still have an Xbox 360 that I play on sometimes. I loved the Texas Load series, and I think the Hampton Haul series is a really good replacement. Your videos are honestly some of my favorite videos on TH-cam. It’s really cool and nostalgic seeing these older consoles. Keep up the great work 👍😊
That first xbox was a gem man, was literally a gaming time capsule
Yea that brought back such good memories. Man, I miss the old gaming days.
The last blades console probably didn’t work after replacing the dvd drive because the dvd key didn’t match with what was married to the console, each system has a unique dvd key and if it detects another the console will reject it. You probably already know this with the experience you have with RGH Xbox 360s. If you order a new dvd drive, you should get the same model dvd drive and take that pcb out and put the one from the broken one in, it has a DVD key that’s married to that console motherboard. That will work, or you can fix the laser inside the one that’s already in the system, if that doesn’t work just order a replacement laser (might’ve burned out) or order a new dvd drive and use all the parts but you’d need to flash the dvd key so it marries it to that console with a flashing kit. You can flash it with none custom firmware or custom firmware to play back up games.
I’m gonna be honest, I have no idea what console you’re referring to 😂 I haven’t replaced and flashed a disc drive in a 360 in over 10 years
@@jrob0021 The blades 360 you had in this vid, and I still have my flashing kit after 10 years 😂
@@Yemmy1996 I'm assuming the blades consoles in this video just had a bad laser, I don't think it's ever been replaced as the console appeared to have never been opened up.
Man I completely forgot about the xbox 360 flashing scene. I had the tools for flashing xbox 360 disc drives back in like 2013-2014 (I can't even remember what the main device was called). I think I sold it back in 2014-2015 since I stopped using it
Seeing that old xbox dashboard took me back in time, man. Guitar hero 3, halo 3, and cod4 will forever be embedded in time as the peak of gaming with my boys.
Love your content man, not only is it nostalgic but your style of content which is very down to earth and not edited to heck is a real nice change of pace. Keep it up bro
The unfortunate truth with that 2006 console is that it has an ungodly likelihood of dying. I've had a handful of 2006 units that worked when I got them and died later on into the day. There's nothing you can do about it either sadly.
Yeah that’s why I’m wary about opening it up to repair the disc drive. This things will break if you look at them the wrong way
@@jrob0021 you may as well just do it. If the GPU has already failed, it’s going to show up at some point when you least expect it. If I recall, the GPUs made in Korea aren’t quite as prone to failure as the others are, but it still has a chance of failing.
Those consoles that contains the 90nm gpu's or cpu's are prone to failure.
Even the first PS3's had this issue with the similair cause.
Unfortunately true. My best friends original AV only 360 ended up dying out of nowhere. Thankfully not blade UI or anything but just one day boom red ring. Mans def got his use outta that one though
6:28 I would open that up and make sure there are no leaking capacitors. Wouldn't want those to ruin the motherboard if there are any. Disc drive would be worth fixing too. You could sell it for a bunch because it's jtagable
I don't think he really fixes anything
1:28 - God I miss blades. It was fast, easy, and unique.
Watching this video makes me appreciate my xbox 360 even more. I love watching these, and the blades dashboard was the coolest one I've ever seen.
the og 360 dashboard to this day is still my favorite, it's just clean organized in its own folder tabs, customized theme colors just sound fx for it S tier, the dashboard was absolute peak console ui that should've never been changed tbh it was crisp and perfect.
the blade dashboard was so much better than basically every version of Xbox UI MS has released since.
Love binging these videos, thanks for pushing out the great content! Looking forward for more to come.
The Blades dashboard is my favorite of all time. Sincerely, someone who's been around since Pong.
i love watching these videos so much fr thanks for not stopping after the texas load
Going through old xbox 360 profiles like this was freakin awesome, holy crap it took me back.
I still have my 360 that I used for years, with my profile that I have around 60k gamerscore on too. I def need to plug it in and check it out.
My buddys 360 wouldnt read discs but we figured out if you tap on the top of it above the disc tray with a decent bit of force when you put the disc in it would eventually work lmao. Was always such a pain when we wanted to switch from Guitar Hero to Halo or vice versa cause we knew it would take about 30 minutes lol
blades dashboard still looks better than current xbox UI lol. I was so dissapointed when I bought the series x and had the same uninspiring interface as the xbox one. One of my favorite parts of getting a next gen console was the feeling of being in a new era. When I bought the new xbox it felt like i just spent $500 to play a couple more games than the xbox one
As someone who got to the 360 VERY late it's wild to learn that the whole OS was different at one point
There were 3 Major Visual Dashboard UI's: Blades, NXE, and Metro.
@@Climacticc_Chaos Neat! I guess they wanted it to feel the least outdated possible during the console's "lifetime"
I still have a 360 slim because my other 3 360 consoles had the red ring of death. I played Call of Duty 2 multiplayer to death in 2006.
Bro I'm just as baffled as you with the Xenon, literally same situation. The only Xenon in the lot I got actually worked. I am kind of leaning towards to at least open it up, clean it, and replace thermal paste.
I wish you could find a Fatback PS3, they are so nice to have the backward compatibility in them.
4:40 I was working on a console lot of broken original XBoxes, and a couple of them had music ripped to the heard drive, it was like a time capsule from 2003.
Fun fact about those "demos", you were able to flip a single bit and play the full game!
easy sub. no crazy edits and straight to content I like. Keep em coming
Just wanted to say that Jacob R and Smokin Silicon are probably my two favorite YT channels recently, keep up the great work!
Thanks for watching! Smokin' Silicon content is pretty sparse right now, since we're posting so much here, but we'll be back to 2 times a week once we hit 2024
8:10 Listening to Franklin and Lamar's banter in the first few minutes of the game could easily lead to turning it off for good. Especially if a parent was in hearing range
What i like about your videos man is straight to the point keep it up
I love these videos the most! The Xbox 360 was iconic and it’s only been on the rise in retro gaming. You don’t find much nostalgia like this on the PS3, all these accounts, gamerscore, the games, the avatars, the messages, the bios, the songs and the dashboards were the best! The Xbox 360 is my all time favourite, thanks for sharing this nostalgia.
I don’t think Xbox will ever top the 360’s legacy
Lmao what ps3 has all of those things? An old ps3 would bring hella nostalgia. My uncle would upload photos and music to his
@@562.anthony2 Onviously but I was comparing the two… duh. Most PS3s don’t have anything on them pre owned, whereas Xbox 360 is full of it. Even the dashboards are crazy, PS3s has pretty much been the same forever
and i still only plaued XBOX not xbox one xbox 360 or this new one thats ALSO just called "Xbox" no Xbox 2003/2006 Xbox.
I feel like it is because sony is just so standard. controllers always look the same. Menus all look the same. It is just so standard.
Where as, if you look at the old blades dashboard, man is that a throwback compared to NXE going forward.
I took off the sticker off of my 360 slim christmas morning! I miss the old bugger but I also don't miss the touch-screen power button and disc-tray buttons.
I have a old dashboard one also.. Bought a couple of 360s back in the year 2006, one I didn't touch because the drive was missing. And back then I didn't know you needed the drive, so it was useless to me back then.. A couple of years ago on a cold winter day I came across the Xbox360 in a box, so I decided to JTAG(so without a chip) it so it can run backups from a harddisk. :D It still works in 2023 with a 500GB harddisk and a lot of games. The video out, even without the HDMI, is full-HD. On the original cable there's a switch where you can set it to HD and with the component out it is full HD (In Europe it is, I don't know about other regions). So you can do a JTAG on the first one also! It's pretty cool, even now in 2023.
Yeah, the US ones had that same cable. AV plus component, with a little switch to change modes. The console restarts if you flick the switch while it's running lol.
Lmfaaao he guessed the "lock"😂😂
Downloading that many demos is something I still do on my switch to this day lol.
Back in the 360 days achievements were such an accomplishment. I remember having a blast 100% halo, finding all the skulls. Forza MS 2 was incredible. Shadow run. Army of 2. Battle field Bad Company. The games were gold. Haven’t enjoyed or even played played a game like that since then. OldSchool RuneScape is the only game that scratches the achievement itch for me anymore.
Sometimes the storage devices take 5-10 minutes to load. It depends on how big the storage is.
If it’s taking 5-10 minutes to load, it’s got an issue.
@@jrob0021 Jeepers. All of my storage devices are like that.
@@benjaminA.stantonpun I've never had a storage device take longer than a minute to load
@@jrob0021 I used to think 5-10 minutes was a short time to wait. The longest it ever took to fully read the data was 3 hours. It said 0kb all over until then.
If you have a lot of games on the hard drive, it can slow the drive down, as the OS needs room to cache files while games are loading.
Please make a video where you actually show the entire process of you fixing the blaze consol. I love watching build, referb & maintenance videos.
Jacob right here summarised my reaction to finding a Blades Falcon in the wild.
Like seriously, I had ZERO IDEA I'd hit a Blades Falcon, on the same dash, with all cables and a headset bonus!
I still have the unit although I took the greater liberty to JTAG it (which is even more rare in itself) so I can downgrade back to stock Blades at my own will :) (currently on 17559 but as I said, it can freely go back to 6717 as I disabled the fuse burning circuit.)
I do agree that you should open the Xenon up. I know these tend to die so better prolong its life with some new thermal paste and a dust-off.
Incredible... Blades in a Goodwill XBOX 360! Greatest haul ever!
Wasn't the "all in one" on the first guys gamertag for when you first set up your account? I think on the blades it asked you what kinda gamer you are or your play style preferences so if you saw someone's profile who was into shooters you could add them.
I might be wrong, anyone else remember that?
I remember booting up the Skate demo over and over cause you could free skate for 30 mins if you hurried up and did the challenges
Honestly these videos have become my new favorite things to watch
Reminds me of when I found a blades 360 in a lot of broken xbox controllers I bought the lot for the controllers yet the add in was the most valuable part
Hey the X360 I gave to Goodwill is in this video. When I bought the Xbox 360 e, I took the sticker off. But yea that blades dashboard 360 was mine that I gave to Good Will
Imagine making a mine craft world and then some guy on TH-cam finds it in a 360 hard drive
(10:00) I'm fairly certain I left the disc drive warning sticker on my Xbox 360 E back when I had it in 2014 and didn't peel it off.
On a side note, I checked the archived listing on my Carousell profile from when I sold it off, and I listed it for sale for $220 (SGD back in 2014) but was also willing to trade it for a Wii U. The listing had been posted so long ago that I can't view chats from back then but I'm certain I sold the whole lot for $180 or thereabouts.
God i miss this era. I Had 3 xbox 360s. Original phat, no hdmi, then the jasper with hdmi and later i bought a slim. The slim power supply broke in 2 months or so from the little fan just straight up dying in there, that they added, but fortunately you could buy and adaptor to use the OG ones on there. The blade dashboard was clearly the better dashboard IMO, but didnt allow as much advertising as microsoft wanted.
I took that sticker off mine when the laminate started peeling got annoying but now i have one that still has it in 8/10 condition
My favorite demo will forever be Cloning Clyde. Such a gem.
6:47 You can definitely tell GameStop “refurbished” that hard drive because they sanded that puppy down with a magic eraser lol.
Whats good about that dashboard in the first one? Mine still has that, never updated it when i bought it in 2007.
Love seeing your reaction when you find a game 🙂
That serues name is so clever 😂
Great work as always Jacob! ❤
I purchased a ps4 slim for parts on goodwillfinds and everything works and on top of that it was on firmware 8.50 updated it to 9.00 and jailbroke it
"Dude, GT5, let's go baby" rofl every time.
I'd load up Halo 3 on that Blades dashboard 360, see if any forge maps or anything are on there
I typed this before I saw the rest, I'd load up Halo 3 AFTER replacing the disc drive lol
The early 360 gen was so fun. It was a great time.
Gears of war, dead rising, halo 3, saints row, COD 4… so nostalgic to think about
That console has some memories it would be cool if you could track down the OG owner and give it back go him 😂😂
I haven't seen a game console turn up at my area Goodwill's in years. Was told they trash anything with a HDD in it.
I so badly want to have N+ on my current console, seeing that game is a blast from the past
Bro seeing the Rep and Gamer zone was such a flashback I remember trying to get 5 star then I was gonna change my zone to pro lol
16:20
they must have done a secondary profile glitch, where you duplicate your profile to a second account. it will make your two accounts have the same gamerscore, time played, even save games; all copied from one account to the other.
Oh so many memories with the blade menu on the 360. I wish I could have a 360 with that menu lol
With the 360 that has 320gb hard drive, I noticed a delisted game on the hard drive. Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater HD. Might not want to wipe the drive cause of that!
Sounds like he's pricing these according to how well you're listening to him...definitely some Crazy Eddie deals in this lot, if you're paying attention to the inspection/review of each one
Imagine watching this video and seeing your old console :D
i feel like the person that played games in 2021 started playing during covid when they where bored and couldnt go out. i imagine this as a reintroduction to gaming
I would love to see Jacob buy a RGH to see his reaction and overall criticism of it.
I'm British and that Xbox bio is funny asf. On the mic there would always be trash talk between British and Americans 😂
20:12 XGC as others have hinted at is "Xiled Gaming" they were large all the way back in the early Halo and COD days and were founded by a few that left KSI. Originally XGC stood for Xiled Gaming Company. That was the combining of Xiled Kings division in KSI and Easy Company.
Yea seeing that brought back old memories I was in Section 8. I just logged into my account and trying to touch base with some old friends.
@@TIDK88 I was PMS/H2O NA Halo divison. I was, at one time, practice captain, practice manager, recruitment manager, and community manager. Basically I did everything except the job of platform(Xbox, PC), game(division) leader/co-leader, and clan administration.
It's crazy to me how nasty and dirty some people's consoles can get. I dont think I've ever properly cleaned a console in my life, maybe wipe the dust off every few months. I had 6 brothers, constantly moved my console all over the house, brought it to friends houses, loose, out of the box, and besides a little dust my consoles have always been clean. It's not wven something you need to take care of besides dust inside, you plug it in and it sits there. You would have to try to make them that dirty or dusty or scratched
I remember back in 2006, my husband really wanted a Wii for Christmas. I searched everywhere and had my mother in-law and father in-law looking out for one. My father in-law worked for a very big supermarket which sells electronics. He called me around 3 am (he worked nights) and said I need to get there at 6am. And that's what I did. I couldn't resist it though, I asked my hubby to open his present early .. I wanted to see his face. Good times❤
My 360 Slim still has that sticker to this day.
Those audio tracks came with the first console.
Xbox's with a manufacturing date in the later stages of 2008 would still ship with blades, it's not that big of a deal.
Please please please always open the Minecraft world in your videos that caught me by surprise and it was the coolest thing I’ve seen please keep doing that
I worked in a used game store and E models always looked like they were dragged through a few parking lots. No idea why.
more fire content
haven't opened my xbox 360 since 2015
Oh god I havent seen XGC in such a long time. Talk about memories. Remember having clan battles against them with my XGO clan as back then it was about that clan warfare
how are you getting a deal from goodwill when everyone on the website is there to bid you up?
lol the Command And Conquer Trailer.... The best days
if blades dash is
I recently bought a in box pristine condition xbox 360 with blades dashboard for 50 bucks, anyone got a clue of how much this would go for?
Today I picked up a “new” Xbox 360 and it’s amazing! I’ll be uploading a vid about it tomorrow. Sadly not blades :( but it’s still alg! I love your vids btw.
dont know why!!
But i got so happy watching this(most so 13:38 when the 1st xbox BOX shows up)Yes i missed the whole xbox "craze myself"i was a Playstation+amiga nerd instead so might be that is why i was happy to se what i missed back when i was way younger then i am now!!!
Thanks 4 video
When you spawned into that person's Minecraft world, dead, that likely means they died while playing last, and then just clicked quit and left it be for all those years until you loaded the save again lmao
Considering the first console is from Virginia its pretty neat seeing one of the usernames have 757 in it
Queueing up Dave Matthews Band when somebody came in the room is a clutch 2007 joke.
