Very well made video, keep up the good work! And don't ever update that 360!
ArcadeMachine15 (wescoolya) will do! It won't be connected to the internet at all. Right now it's sitting in my closet, waiting to find a new home.
is this for collections sake?
@@IntellitechStudios my 2006 xbox 360 has broken 7 times already and now its sitting in my attic because when I tried to fix it with my heatgun I had turned the temperature too high and the gpu dye started to bubble up so it was game over
That's cool I have a 360 with e79 on stock 5766 but I have jtagged it
Intellitech Studios was it the Xbox that was never updated when you got it?
Brings back so memories of 2007 and 2008 life was fun and simple back then :’(
not for yo parents i bet they got a headache when you ask for the 360 thousand times.
**sighs** Life will get better.
Best console and best and most nostalgic dashboard. Brings me back to christmas 2005. ☺️
I like xbox 360 but i prefer ps3 hehe both of them are awesome!
Burny Sony requires you pay for psn after the launch of the ps4
Mister Chief ha classic pic u have
Why couldn't I see the glory days breaks my heart
But you guys comments and videos make me happy
Getting major nostalgia right now. I remember playing games like Forza Motorsport 2 and Gears of War back in the day.
I love how colorful and fluid the Blades dashboard is, just screams early 2000s.
I like it so much, I might actually mod my JTAG to have this dashboard.
Everything is all grey and black now come on we need our green, blue, purple, and red and don't forget orange
Aún así esa consola es del 2005
I remember this... I had an Xbox given to me in 2008, I used this Dashboard for about a month before the NXE came out, but I remember not using it that much... grew up with NXE but still very nostalgic
i had my share of it too. in 2014 i got a un-updated 2008 360. with the blades dashboard later it was fixed with the latest dashboard of the time. and i had memory cards and 60 GB.
Out of plain curiosity, how’d you get your 360 Ryne?
Xbox 360 was awesome, miss those good ole' days
Same they just don't exist anymore I hate that about the world
I wish I could go back and experience booting up my Xbox 360 for the first time back in 2006. Wonderful memories
I wish microsoft gives us an option which dashboards we want to use.
Exactly what I'm trying to tell them maybe you guys can support me we might be in future tech age but that doesn't mean we shouldn't be able to relive the glory days
What if we added new efuses to downgrade
@@leolaus it's a start
@@YoungMrBlue yeah ikr
@@Caisstuff I agree
Great overview of the old blades dashboard. Probably one of the best overviews of it yet. Loved how you cycled through all the dashboard themes (Glass FTW) and the customization options for the guide.
Oh man that visualisation when playing music brings back some memories. Used my 360 to play music through at university, hooked up to my TV and with the full screen visualisation vibing up my room with friends, drinking some beers, and mucking about. Loved it ❤️
Ugh I miss this so much I remember being wowed as kid by being able to change the themes
Gosh dang those colors and sound effects are damn near therapeutic
Love this dashboard
I believe Microsoft stopped using the darker silver on the hard drive at around the end of 2007, my 2005 launch 360 had it though.
You're close, but I think it was around mud 2006, that's was the consensus seems 5o be now among people who have early 360s
Gotta say, you've got a good taste in music, my sir!
Thank you!
I recently won a launch 360 at an auction for like 10 bucks. It's a launch xenon in mint condition, has never been opened before (still has the microsoft sticker) and it's on the first revision of blades (only supports 1080i). It was made on October 17th 2005. It also works flawlessy. I'll post a video as soon as i get home
Post the vid
Where's the vid Nick?!
My actual Baby lol 😓miss that damn thing 😂now I’m using the Xbox 360 Slim black not the newer 360 but the the one with the fans on the side above 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥marble blast ultra, Perfect Dark Zero and various other classics I had on demos of this thing. Nostalgia at its finest
Microsoft should definitely release an anniversary edition update to allow this dashboard style as an option
Agreed maybe as a little gift for using the Xbox series x for a month
This and the dashboard they added when they added avatars were the best imo
13 year ago, so nostalgic, just memories
Brings back memories this is where it all started for me christmas day 2006 booting up dead rising for the first time good times.
The original model Xbox 360 was peak console design for Microsoft (that hourglass shaped console just cannot be beat), and the original "Blades" dashboard was the best UI they ever made. It just really makes me sad that, after the Blades and NXE dashboards, future Xbox UI's just got worse and worse.
Now, any UI for consoles just look too flat and boring, what happened to a detailed UI? Oversimplifying was clearly a mistake.
microsoft should temporarily bring back the blades, and nxe for celebrating the dashboard and launch day! and everyone will access the old dashboards and have fun like it's 2008 again! A man can hope, let's make this true to have a little hope for this new decade again!
This dash reminds me of a mixture of the OG Xbox and the Dreamcast
Oooh my childhood..
Couldn't finish the video and I still got a heart, thanks!
No problem, glad you enjoyed it ^w^

How to read Xbox 360 console print/manufacture dates!
My Xbox 360 hard drive has that sticker under the connector as well, I'm not sure why it's there but on eBay listings it seems to be above the bar code
So much nostalgia bro he even has the chrome disk drive cover
I never knew that you could customize the color of the guide button blade. That's so early 2000s, I love it.
Miss Xbox 360 Blades
I miss owning a Xbox 360 original
I have a Xbox one S 1TB forza bundle white but i hate how Microsoft forces uses credit card
I had a Xbox 360 Arcade came with 1 game and 512mb memory card
Oh goodness, I forgot about the themes. The black one was really quite fantastic.
Cool video!
About E 74 on a Xenon - its either ANA solder loose, or a GPU ball problem. I recently fixed a JTAGable (7371) Xenon with E 74 just by removing ANA from the board, wicking the pads clean, and then soldering ANA back with fresh leaded solder.
The original darker silver finish ceased after MS halted production lines due to the red ring. The launch day dashboard also shipped without the marketplace blade and you had to update day one for Xbox Live and marketplace.
Xenon motherboard ran from November 2005 - September 2007 (2007 had limited xenon motherboards as in May 2007 they released zepher)
Nicely well done! 😉✌️
Interesting to see that it had a custom theme installed, but went back to the default theme as soon as it was unable to connect.
I miss this dashboard how do you get it back
You can't you have to buy an old 360 that hasn't been updated for like 14 years lol
@@chriscole9621 Could you possibly mod the UI to make it look like that, as well? With all the capabilities today, I feel as though that would be a sound alternative for anyone who wouldn't want to go out of their way to try and find a launch 360
I have one
@Yanni Anthony nope
Chris Cole I just bought one that was played for 2 hours and boxed for 14 years. Has blades UI and it’s in mint condition
13:12 i used to play my music with that full screened all the time, you could also mess with it on the controller.
Eh, the Xbox has been updated before. I can tell because the copyright date is 2008, so the previous owner stopped updating right before the NXE dash came out.
Recently just unboxed a sealed one of these and even videoed it. totally awsome
Man, I have nxe and Im still jealous
I just picked up a 360 from a flea market for 5 bucks that was manufactured October 26th 2005. Yes, before the system even officially launched. It's not red ringed and does work but the fans start to rev up after a few minutes of being on and the console will display 2 flashing quadrants, indicating overheating. The thermal paste will be toast. And it's probably one of the consoles that had foil accidentally left on the heatsinks. Link to what i'm talking about: www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/protective-foil-left-on-some-xbox-360-heatsinks.9669/ It has also never been opened. Oh and oddly, it has the later grey coloured side panels. So maybe it might have been shipped to Microsoft for repair and they put the newer side panels on. It also has the newest version of the dashboard so no 2006 dash on it. I have another 360 that was made February 21st 2006 and it does have the metallic silver coloured side panels.
Was it a Core or a Premium model? Every Core model always had Grey panels. As far as the rest of the system, definitely replace the compound and it should run smoothly assuming the 2 lights never changed to 3
@@IntellitechStudios Nope they've never changed to three. It's got a Hitachi drive in it too. As for it being a Core or a Pro, how do you tell? Do the Pros not have the silver side panels? It did come with a 20GB hard drive that matches the colour of the side panels. Which as I said before, are indeed gray. The sticker on the left side of the back of the console has almost no information on it which is just like any very early 360. It'll be interesting to see what it looks like inside once I open it to replace the thermal paste. Gotta get some thermal paste though!. Ha ha.
It seems the cutoff for the silver on the Pros is mid 2006. I have two late 2006 Pros, one is missing the sticker, but the other was manufactured in early September 2006, and has the gray trim. The September 2006 360 still runs Blades. I am looking for hard drives but I am scared they will have a system update on them and put me on a newer firmware. Also sucks not much can be done in terms of DLC, I'd love to have the Halo 3 Heroic Map Pack on my blades 360.
I used the silver 20gb hard drive on mine and it didn't update or anything. Just find an original silver drive and format it before you install it on the blade 360
Hi there I've got a question to ask. If you put in a newer game like from 2010 or 2013 into the console, when you decline the update and it takes you back to the dashboard does the game info say display 'Play Game' or 'Open Tray' or does it actually display the title of a modern 360 game like 'WWE 2K17' or 'Max Payne 3'?
because i'd like to use this dashboard as an intro to a video. Hope you get back, thanks.
I'm honestly not sure. I would guess that it wouldn't show the title of a new game And just be blank, but you could always try it. Ask ArcadeMachine15 and he should be able to actually test it out
i also have a launch blade dash 360 from december 2005 that still has the marketplace tab but im scared to turn it on because its in mint condition and i dont want it to red ring
Just do it
Dont. Go to goodwill, letgo, facebook marketplace, or offerup and buy another 360
I miss this so much.
Everybody gangsta untill the rare launch xbox 360 starts red ringing
I have a 360 elite from 2007 and it has NXE dash without broken usb door, im inpressed mine has working usb door
Nice vid. I like your channel. Including how to fix RRoD. I fixed it. Thanks! :)
Shoutout to this guy bought this off eBay from him
Hope you enjoy it! :3
i have a xbox 360 pro (like yours) but its from 26 OCTOBER 2005 (It Was Manufactured Before Launch!) and it have the blade, i play cod 3 on it, but it doesn't connect to xbox live without updating, i cant play gta 4 on it without updating, but i think im going to update it, so i can play online, it has dashboard 2.0.2858.0. and the fan arent much loud, they sound the same as my falcon.
very good video, keep up the good work!
Sorry for my bad english, im italian :p
Jonny pro gamer do not update it! Is a collectible. You can easily sell it and buy yourself a newer model that’s updated
I RGH 360s I actually own an original Xbox 369 from 2005 with this dashboard, I also own a opus motherboard, kinda hard to get them in the uk
My xbox 360 has no hdmi port but it has a manufacturing date of 2009. Maybe it is because it was my family's 3rd 360 that was refurbished and they got some plastic shells mixed up or something.
What a console!
best dashboard ever made. period
I actually bought a launch model 360 back in 2005 and surprisingly it worked for all those years but sadly it died in 2013 from the red ring of death and believe it or not GTA V is what actually killed my xbox. Man I will miss that Xbox and this dashboard.
Why do we have the same story on how our Xbox 360 got the red ring😂😂
@@proondemo I guess it was a coincidence.
@@MrDylan1997-Official my Xbox 360 was from 2005 aswell and it got red ring because of gta 5😂
@@proondemo Ah I see. I guess its funny that I am not the only one to lose a console to a new game.
@@MrDylan1997-Official right😂
First games I received for christmas of 2005 were Kameo and Call of Duty 2
very random but that xbox that was made in February 2009 was made one day after the crash of flight 3407. Dont know why I know that.
Even tho this type of 360 had so many RROD it's still good with the dashboard
Are the failure rates still that high?? I mean the ones that work (falcons and jaspers) should work reliably? I want to buy one but not slim or e.
Yes Jasper is still a very reliable machine just like the slims.
Falcons are good too. I had mine from 2008 and it's still working great
Hello, i’m interested in the launch model (dark grey with blades dash) can you sell only the console with hdd and cables worldwide? Thanks
It depends on the country
Italy
Do the compatible original Xbox games work on the older dashboard without needing to update through Xbox Live? I know you need a hard drive to play them, but still.
They should, as long as whatever version of the backwards compatibility supports the game you're trying to play
@@IntellitechStudios great now I got a plan for later
I find and buy a Xbox 360 with the blades dashboard and I'll use it to play old 360 games and original Xbox games
@@YoungMrBlue You can do that, sure. But be careful as some 360 games require updates
I bought a 360 in 2019 👌
Still a great system!
I bought an 360 in 2016
But it was the glossy slim its now getting hot at all but the best thing it still works
@@davystoelwinder5575 Make sure you clean it out. and repaste heatsinks
@@JohnSmith-nn8xh i dont have it any more now i have two 250gb matte xbox 360,s
how come you can film at 4k 60 but all the millioare tech tubers cant.
I usually film in 1080p 60 but export at 4k, so it's up scaled to 4k at 60 fps
I've seen many TV series and anime with this dash
12:30 omg when you could RIP CDS right on to your console 😍😍😍😍
I have a Xbox 360 Elite with a dashboard from 2015, is it possible to mod it or is it out of the question now?
You should be able to, theres plenty of videos out there than can show you how to mod it
@@IntellitechStudios Will I need a mod chip?
Depends on the mod
@@IntellitechStudios Apparently there is no way to soft mod it
No ads
I have a Microsoft refurbished Xenon 360. Also have The 360 Slim.
I was here just for see the initial setup :(
I will do an initial setup video soon if I can :3
@@IntellitechStudios oh thank you so much, this is puré gold, Microsoft should bring this back. :3 And I hope that I can find some day a Xbox 360 with the classic dashboard like the blades and NXE dashboards because those are my favorite.
Are you selling it? I have a 26 october 2005 launch day xbox 360, never been opened and its still working!!! But it isnt on the blades, and i want a console whit blades, pls reply me, tank you and keep up the good work
Yes I'm selling it
@@IntellitechStudios ok, how much it cost? But i want to give you a help, you say in the video that it gave you e 74 3 times, but when you restarted it worked again, but if you try playng it for some day, it will froze and give you e 74, because e 74 mean a cold solder joint under the gpu, it always worked when you resetted it because you dont stressed it playing game, you only used it to watch the dashboard, the only fix for it is reflow whit heat gun and give more pressure on the x clamp (temporary fix, if you are luky it can last 2 or 1 year) 2 fix is to do a bolt hack if you dont have a heat gun but i dont reccomend it, because it will probably auto destroy because for the heat the traces under gpu will probably destroy (temporary fix, not reccomended, if you are luky some months) the good fix is reballing, this is the best fix( permanent fix, sometimes is temporary but it will last like 7 years if you do it correctly and do 12 v fan mod).
Anyway how much it cost?
But if you are keeping it, fix
it, trust me...
@@jonnyprogamer i was selling it for 80, but i know im not getting that much with the issues it has. Ill sell it for 60 with all accessories, hard drive, and 2 controllers.
@@IntellitechStudios good luck, i think i cant get it because i live in italy, so the shipment cost would a lot of money
sorry for my bad english
They went from classic pages to basically Windows 8.
How to put that 2 dark parts in the dashboard?
I want this as my dashboard.
Still th best Xbox dashboard. The Xbox One dashboard is so dull in comparison.
Is it possible to play games like halo 4 without updating the dashboard?
No. Any game you put in that's newer than the dashboard will auto update the dashboard to whatever dash was current at the time. So you'd have to stick to games from during that dashboard or older.
How do you get that version or NXE please tell me.
You just have to find a console that was never updated. There's no way to downgrade a console
Intellitech Studios awwwww dang
@@IntellitechStudios aka, an untouched console, right?
How do you get the 2006 dash
Are there updates for xbox 360 but not dashboard updates?
Connecting an old 360 to the internet will update the dashboard, and downgrades are not possible. It is not recommended
So I have this Xbox 360 and it has this exact dashboard but I don't know how to update it to the current Xbox 360 dashboard does anyone know how to
Don't update it. Sell it and buy a new 360.
Try putting a new game in there and console should download the new update from the disc or try to us wifi to get the update or you could use a usb flash drive with the update on it.
Can you do 85?
Yes
E74 means the GPU is dying. Everyone says its the HANA when really thats BS. The real fix is to replace the GPU.
2 best condoles ...near one by one
E74 means your GPU is failing, only fix is to replace the GPU

No, don't connect it to a network or else it will update the dashboard

Once it's updated, theres no way to downgrade unfortunately
Suprising it doesn't have the red ring of death
i know this video is from 2018 but i would NOT recommend the 360 slim, the buttons are so sensitive and the fans on mine doesent even ramp up, i got 360 arcade version one. the one with white disk tray and i love it
2006 isn't Launch. A launch Xenon would be from around late November 2005.
Chase Whittemore when I say launch I mean as in from one of the first batches of consoles. You can tell wether or not it’s a launch model pro if the sides are dark silver instead of the grey that was on the core systems and the later pro models.
@@IntellitechStudios I know. I have a Xenon from October 2005 and it has the silver grills on it. Just because it has the sliver grills though doesn't mean it's a launch model.
@@chase7974 How do you even have a console 1 month prior to the xbox 360 launch on stores?
I got the red ring after placing an HDD in wrong
I know it's weird to ask, but does gta 5 work properly on this Dash???
No, you can't load the game. Doing so will Upgrade the firmware and the dashboard
@@IntellitechStudios danka my curiousity is now over!!
@@IntellitechStudios Could you play older games on it without updating, though? Like, released before the model date or so?
