Seems fishy. Nothing on the XBOX site or Microsoft site.

It's all over the news.  I think it's legit.

But only recalling power cords - not the X-Boxes themselves.

Ahh. Did a better Google search for info. Looks legit.

Replacement orders for the cord can be made here.

If someone really bought it, you most likely got ripped then.

He probably fixed it for $5 worth of stuff from radioshack.

PS2=Cool

Xbox=Cool

They both are good systems with strong a weak points. Stop being soo damn judgemental.  I got a Xbox for Christmas, but i still love my PS2, they are equal in my book

I have an original manufactured xbox from like October 2001, and the drive is lame. Ask Cedric or Apu or hog, i need to restart every few games becuase my maps fail to load.

I'll order me a cord.

My maps failt oload on my BOX all the time... Also, it says discs are dirty no matter what sometimes or just refuses to recognise games.

You're all fools. PS2...XBOX...GameCube...all are far worse than the mighty....DREAMCAST!!!

Seriously, the XBOX is far more powerful but PS2 gets most of the good games. And without Halo, XBOX would have been the failure that is gamecube.

You need a new drive....as do I.

Xbox has alot of good games besies Halo and halo 2. Ghost Recon, Rainbow Six 3, Time Splitters 2 and alot more. PS2 is lame for FPS games anyway. All they really have is GTA and sports games.
