Is the warranty expired?

Long time ago. Flipin repair costs 68GBP, omg, the flipin new slim xbox with 250GB space costs 200GBP, i'm no way going to pay that much to fix this old peace of junk.

lolxbox

Screw that and get it for PC instead.

ok. buy me better pc and black ops for pc plx.

Get a job and give me the money then.

Why do you think I don't have a job?

Well, for starters, you can't afford a computer.

lol

And you dont really need a super rig to play black ops. It has the same requirements as MW2, which I run maxed out, and I have a medium rig.
Old dual core 5Ghz processor, some ATI Radeon HD 3900 series GPU, 4 Gb Crosshair RAM. Runs crysis on Medium High and Bad Company 2 at Medium.
It was cheap since I built it myself, and it has been loyal to me for quite a while

Although from what I understand Black Ops PC is pretty balls deep in latency-ville. And apparently the software for protecting from hackers is awful. I'm enjoying it throughly on Xbox.

Also, just cause your Xbox crapped out doesn't mean it's Black Ops' fault. Mine crapped out during GTA4, but since I've logged 100+ more hours on GTA4 no problem.

It was jut your 'box's time...

I don't see how a disc could do that. I've had four 360's and once only the video crapped out on one, and it turned out to be the cable. Fixed it myself with a little solder, so you should check that.

aslo moomoo's right. I run MW2 on a 2.2GH duel core, it's really not a very demanding engine for a modern game.

I know what I'm going to do guys, or what I have already done. I just bought the new Xbox360 slim, I got the cheapest one I could find. I bought the 4GB version, basically It has no hard drive, but what I have done there is saved 60GBP Worth of money. (The 4GB xbox360 slim costs around 140GBP but the 250GB version costs like 200GBP).

Now the reason I bought the really cheap low capacity Xbox is because I was searching up on cheaper ways to get the equivalent space on your Xbox, and I found one. It is possible to reformat a PC's external hard drive to work with your Xbox 360. Now usually your xbox would not detect such a device when you plug it into it's usb slot, but on one really nice website, I found a way to reformat this external hard drive to be recognised by your xbox 360, so now I will be using it to save files upon with my xbox, so I just saved 60GBP! Oh and this external hard drive was bought to me for about 50GBP and has 512GB of space, so It's completely the best way to go.

You can also do a laptop HDD, and fit it inside the normal casing for a 360, and you won't need to use up a USB slot at all, it'd just be like a normal HDD. Just make sure you get partition 0 i think it is, the one with support for Xbox Original games, otherwise they won't work at all.

"Old dual core 5Ghz processor"

Uhuh.

Yes I know you can do that, but why should I spend money on it if I already have an external drive?

just saying

Old dual core 5Ghz processor

What?

I think he means 2.5 GHz.

Yeah that's what I ment, sorry. I'm not really in to CPUs
