    Fact: The very first batch of launch consoles from 2005 had that “Includes a bonus media remote” sticker on the box. Which is how you can tell that it is one of the very first batch of consoles to be sold at launch. Honestly, such a incredible find Jacob! Been a long time viewer since 2017 with the foreign disc videos! The HDD going bad is starting to get common when it comes to older 360s which is a shame as they came with cool bonus content, like themes, gamer pics and even music! They will also include Hexic HD!
    Those 360s from 2005 - early / mid 2006 also had the Dark Silver trim on the HDD, the top and bottom vents and the controller, which looks much nicer especially when compared to the grey trim which replaced the dark silver one.
    1888 is in fact the first ever dashboard to be released as it came on new 360s from 2005 - early 2006 and is obviously very rare. During launch day, there was already an update which was 2241 (The second dashboard to be released) so a lot of 360s got updated on launch day, though updates 2241 - 2858 did not blow a E-Fuse which means if you have a 360 that has 2241, 2255, 2258, 2857 and 2858 you can actually downgrade to 1888 on one. Only the launch titles will play on 1888. The marketplace blade came out in 5759, before it was part of the Xbox Live blade. I’ve also noticed that 5759’s system update folder is on the root of a lot of HDDs for some reason, which is why one a previous blades system that was showcased prompted an update when the HDD from another system was connected.

    Something I always thought was cool about the launch 360s is they had a different finish on the grey accents on the controller and the console vents and HHD. it was more of a gun-metal color as opposed to the satin grey/greenish tint color they used later.

    I was fortunate to get a 360 at launch that came with the free media remote. I kept the box for a while with the sticker but eventually had to get rid of it during a move. I never thought I would see one again so it was very cool to see you unbox a brand new one. I remember reading that only the first 100,000 360 consoles came with the free remote so the box and console are quite rare.

The guys wife was eager to sell it at a yard sale and was excited when I bought it. All of the tapes with it had a bachelor party and a naked woman dancing which explains why she wanted it gone so fast lol I also once had a DVD lens cleaner disc. It had a video of a beach and was intended to set your colors, contrast, brightness etc. As I'm checking my settings they show a topless woman on the beach-on her back-with no censor at all so strange they left that in

    I used to buy and repair old computers many years ago, and it was flabbergasting how often I found private dirty images and videos on them. People really aren't careful enough with their private images. I guess they forget the images are even on there after a few years, and then they just sell it or give it away without even thinking about it.
    I don't even have images or videos of that nature but when I get rid of an old laptop or something I still always take any and all storage devices out and smash them before selling or giving something away or even if I'm just throwing it in the trash.

    LOL!!! I bought a Fat PlayStation 3 off a guy on Craig's List a number of years ago. Way back when marijana was still illegal in Washington State. When I got it home I started going through it. Hestill had his profile on it so I checked out what he had. No games, two episodes of South Park, and 200 photos of various pot plants growing in a sketchy looking green house. A few hours after cleaning it up I got an email from the guy saying "Don't worry about checking out the hard drive. Just go ahead and reformat it, there isn't anything important on it." LOL, a little too late dude. 😆

    I had a Dashboard on my 360 that wasn't Blades but came before NXE. It was solid White, you could change the color of the menu headers and it didn't have the menus broken up into "Blades". I'm thinking I either had a console loaded with a prototype GUI or I had a showroom model. My folks bought in 2006 for me at the pawnshop and I had that GUI for literal years, it wasn't until 2010 the it updated to NXE and that was just because a game installed the new Firmware. I never played Xbox Live, I never even connected the thing to the internet.

    • @antitheus
      @antitheus 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Yeah, my Xbox 360 forced me to update to the Metro dashboard from the second dashboard after blades. I don't remember any of the names for the dashboards other than blades, I used "Metro" because it looked very Metro honestly especially the Metro steam skin but I'm referring to the dashboard that was around from 2013-2016 (that's when I first connected it to the Internet, and when I first got internet lmao) and first featured the Bing search tab to the left of the home tab.
      I should definitely look into the dashboards and what makes each one unique. Definitely an interesting subject.

Then Circuit City went out of business and I managed to buy 10 250GB HDD's for $125 and started modding/selling the OG's. Made enough to get the PS4&XB1 on release day. Never owned a 360.

    My original launch 360 did the exact same thing on boot, E67. It did then sort itself out after a few reboots. I think I had 3 of the OG's red ring on me. Even with all that grief it's still one of my favourite consoles of all time. Thankfully MS did replace 2 of them in warranty. I actually lived only 5 miles from one of the main repair hubs in the UK so the turn around was pretty quick.
