So you're going to buy the new one before you verify you'll get your money back on the old one?

They will/should refund the cost I paid at that time $399 + tax.
Then I take that money and buy a new Slim 250 gig 360 $299 + new service plan.
Whatever money is left over will go to a game. $100 difference - cost of service plan = $ towards game.
Then, at home tonight, I'll use my transfer cable kit and transfer stuff from my old hard drive to the new one. I'm keeping the hard drive from my currently dead system. Best Buy will either not care, or they will have be bring it in when I am done. I'm not sure what way they go.

Hope so, and that's how it worked for me when I needed a new system in January 2009, but I was talking with my BB-manager friend about this when the Slims came out, and he said they've changed it around and they don't do it this way anymore. I forget exactly what it was he said they do now, but I think it involved actually sending the old unit to their PRP center or something, before issuing any refunds or store credit. Hope I'm wrong about this and it works out for you, though.

Or they look in the box, realize the system's incomplete and refuse to refund it until you bring it in. They always checked when I returned my old Xbox system (twice) to make sure that the controller was in the box.

I tried other games, they read no problem - only RB had the issue. What I ended up doing was leaving the disc in, powering off, then back on and it read it no problem.

Anyone DEMO that "Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom" game?
I thought it was pretty cool.

I thought this was always BB's policy... I don't remember every hearing someone just get to pick a new console and get the price drop ,I thought they always try to fix it (which means no Xbox in the meantime) or drop a refurbished one on you. I thought this is why Costco's return policy was so revered.

Anyone with a Kinect tell me how long the cord is? My 360 is a good distance from where the top of the tv is and I don't want a big hassle reaarranging things.
Same for the Move if anyone knows the Eye camera's cord length. Thanks.

I don't have it in front of me, but if either is too short, why not just get a usb extender? The only problem would be if you have an old xbox and need to plug the kinect in...

Old xbox uses USB. New sexbox uses, I believe, an IEEE-1394 (Firewire) connection though it could be proprietary.

BTW, I just love how Microsoft ruined Xbox.com with all the Silverlight shit. Takes 14 minutes to load my friend list and I can't use it on the iPhone anymore. I'm sure that's no coincidence #WP7.

The site runs fine for me.
My dashboard/game list on the actual machine.. on the other hand, seems to get slower by the day.

Site runs fine for me too on my PC. Silly Apple products!
I seem to be able to login and pull up friends on my Android phone too.

It took 18 seconds just to load the friend list. Just watching that circle rotate. Granted I'm on my corporate vpn, but nothing else is that slow.

I can' t ever get the login to work in Chrome. So it's not just pinata. Gotta boot up IE just to buy stuff off the marketplace.

I've had the same issue in Firefox for quite a while, even before the site redesign. Have to switch to IE to do marketplace stuff. It used to work without problems, though.
