Japan and the Console Video Game Boom

Gaming-Help — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 23:09:44 +0000

In the beginning, there was Nolan Bushnell and Atari, an American video game manufacturer that received widespread success in the late 1970s and 1980s. Then Atari fell victim to changing times, poor management, and mediocre sales, and Japanese game companies Nintendo, Sega, and Sony dominated the console video game industry for the better part of twenty years. In the early 2000s, Microsoft released its game console, the Xbox, becoming the first American company in decades to brave the fierce competition of the games industry. Microsoft had pioneered technology with their Windows software designed for computers, and now turned their gaze towards games with the goal of industry domination. Though the Xbox remained competitive, the project continued to lose money with Japanese industry giants Nintendo and Sony still a dominant force.

Although it has been around for a while, the Xbox 360 still competes with the newest Nintendo and Sony systems. If your machine is experiencing some hiccups, there is no need to invest in a new one, simply get some Xbox 360 repair.

Fixing an Old Xbox 360 Model

Gaming-Help — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 23:04:41 +0000

The Xbox 360 is rather unique among gaming consoles in that it is available in slightly different models. Whereas console makers like Nintendo and Sony have traditionally waited several years to release a machine with more capabilities, the Xbox 360 was launched in entry-level and elite variations. The Xbox 360 Arcade replaced the Core model as the bare-bones, economy version of the system. It lacks many of the features of the arcade, most notably a hard disk drive.

I bought the Xbox 360 Core soon after its launch and was discouraged to see that it was replaced in October of 2007. It made me wonder what I would do if something went wrong with the machine. Everything was fine until a few months ago, when the system stopped working entirely. I went online to seek out a source for Xbox console repair and was happy to learn that they could handle the Core.

Xbox System Cleaning

Admin — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 17:38:28 +0000

There are people out there who purport that if your Xbox 360 is not working properly, you should just open it up and try cleaning it yourself. Well, let me tell you from personal experience that unless you really know what you’re doing and what to look for, this is a pretty much pointless. Another added bonus of trying to do it yourself is that once you open up your console, your warranty is completely null and void. So what do you do? Rather than trying to fix the problem yourself, send it in to be repaired. This is quicker, easier and more effective than trying to fix it yourself.

Solutions for a Football Fanatic

Gaming-Help — Mon, 28 Sep 2009 17:24:55 +0000

Like most sports fans my age, I show my competitive side while playing sports videogames. The Madden football franchise is and has been the holy grail of sports games for years now, so you can imagine my excitement when Madden NFL 10 was released a few months ago. I’ve already explored the new features that are unique to this year’s installment, and my friends and I are constantly facing off online.

It’s not exactly surprising that within a week or so I had played the game so much that my Xbox began to overheat. Judging by the Xbox 360 error codes that were flashing, I diagnosed the problem right away but wasn’t sure what to do about it beyond turning the console off and giving it some time to cool. Desperate to satisfy my Madden craving, I went online and found a site that specialized in fixing such issues.

Xbox 360 Repair and Precautions

nickv — Thu, 25 Jun 2009 04:20:26 +0000

One of the benefits to the Xbox 360 over other consoles is its durability. With a tough shell, this machine can live through some of the worst cosmetic damage. The system however, was not designed with the ability to be moved while it is running, especially while its playing a disk. Many times has an Xbox 360 been moved while reading that very favorite game and you hear a scratching sound only to find your new Madden 08′ disk completely scratched and ruined. This sort of Xbox 360 repair is no less serious than a red ring of death.

Appearances deceive as the Xbox 360 appears to be a machine that is able to handle the rigors of a young teenagers angst. It is prone to the same problems you might find on more delicate equipment. Dropping, moving or hitting the console will without a doubt result in either your disk being damaged or the console itself being damaged.

If you have experienced any of these issues and require Xbox 360 repair help or are generally concerned about your Xbox 360 console, please visit VideoGame911.com for repair help and service. By providing you with quick turn around time, VideoGame911 will have you back in the drivers seat in no team.

nickv — Fri, 19 Jun 2009 16:35:53 +0000

There are many errors that are associated with the XBox 360. Some are more obvious than others like the Red ring of death or an E74 error. Some errors however are not necessarily console related and can be troubleshooted and fixed by yourself!

One common issue with the XBox 360 is a no video issue. While this could potentially be a console related error, there are a few things you can check to make sure everything is setup correctly.

If you are using HDTV make sure the AV cable is not set on TV
Make sure the AV cable is plugged in all the way.
Check to see if your connections to the TV are in the right locations or properly inserted
Test to see that the input channel you are checking on your TV is the correct one

By narrowing down the possibilities, you will be better able to make a decision on how to handle your XBox 360.

Consoles are Computers!

Gaming-Help — Tue, 26 May 2009 21:01:35 +0000

For a long time, people viewed video game consoles as entities separate from computers, after all, a video game console has a completely different look and interface when compared to a PC. In the past, video game consoles and PCs were quite different, but these days, it seems like the two are becoming much more alike. Take the Xbox 360, it has a hard drive, Ethernet capabilities, and a Windows OS, much like the central features on the average PC. In fact, the Xbox 360 is just a supped up PC in a smaller package designed for games, in other words, a high-end gaming PC. Critics have speculated that consoles are becoming computers, and soon, the consoles will be abolished in favor of the PC, which will be able to support all games. However, the relative price of the console when compared to the PC is the main reason the console has continued to succeed. For a computer capable of what the Xbox 360 can do in terms of games, it would cost about $1500 to custom build it, and more if bought in a package from a manufacturer. The Xbox 360 currently sells for about $270 at any electronics store.

Consoles have also become easier to repair over the years, and an experienced computer repair person can also repair an Xbox 360, whether an owner needs to replace Xbox 360 hard drive, install a cooling system, or repair a video card.

Repairs for Laser Disc Based Consoles

Gaming-Help — Wed, 25 Mar 2009 21:22:28 +0000

Unlike the top loading cartridge based consoles of the 1990s like the Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, and Nintendo 64, consoles that use laser discs are prone to damage. With a cartridge based console, there are few ways for it to become damaged, but a laser can wear down over time, and also discs can become scratched. When the laser lens wears down to the point that it can no longer read discs, it needs to be replaced. However, for some consoles, like all of the Sony PlayStations, this can be temporarily solved by turning the console on its side (or flat if it’s been used on its side). This often fixes the problem for the moment because the lens is being used from a different orientation, and thus is not worn out on that part.

You can also send the console in to the manufacturer to get it repaired, but this can take weeks and often costs a lot. The other option is to send in your console to a third party that repairs gaming consoles. Most of the time it’s a simple parts replacement and your console will be good as new. In addition, third parties can do Wii, Xbox 360, even PS3 console repair with ease.

Technical Issues with the Xbox 360

Gaming-Help — Fri, 30 Jan 2009 23:58:25 +0000

The initial wave of Xbox 360 consoles were prone to a number of technical issues that plagued gamers, and also lead to reduced console sales because of the risk. Though some Xbox 360 consoles have had different hardware (to prevent overheating), certain versions are prone to a condition dubbed by gamers as the “Red Ring of Death”. This condition manifests when the console starts up, in which it will attempt to load the disc inside the console, and fail, resulting in a lighted red ring which appears over the usual lighted green ring of a working console. Microsoft has been sued over this faulty hardware, and is well aware of the fallibility of its older Xbox 360 units.

To perform an Xbox 360 repair, it’s first important to realize that it cannot be done by a typical gamer. The console must be sent into either Microsoft or a console repair service. Microsoft is notorious for keeping consoles longer than necessary, so an unaffiliated console repair service can be the best way to go to get your console back and start gaming.

Though it is not necessary to have an Xbox 360 hard drive there are some pretty big benefits to owning one. The hard drive itself does not just act like a storage device. It also speeds up your game play by caching and streaming your information. Besides the fact that if want to make sure you can play your original Xbox games on it you will need this device to make that happen. The original Xbox 360 used a hard drive to store important information for easy transition between levels and screens. So playing your favorite Xbox game on the 360 is virtually impossible without a 360 hard drive.

Blank screen on your Xbox 360?

Admin — Sun, 02 Nov 2008 23:37:36 +0000

The Xbox 360 is great for telling you something may be wrong. The ring of light can flash with many different error codes and color sequences. Not all Red Ring errors are bad, however. Some of the information you receive from the light ring can be used to your advantage.

If you have no picture and four red lights flashing lights it may be something as simple as the AV cable not being connected. First shutdown the console. Then, fully disconnect and reconnect the AV cable. After that, try starting the game console.

If you are have no red ring errors try turning of the game console and ensure the switch on your AV connector is set to the correct setting (TV or HDTV).
If you are using an HDMI connection try turning off the console, disconnecting the HDMI cable from the console and TV then trying to reconnect. If this does work, try using the standard cables to connect to your TV. If this works but, your image quality is poor, please see blog: “Poor Xbox 360 picture quality . (HDMI)”

Poor Xbox 360 picture quality. (HDMI)

The first thing you should do is adjust the HDMI display settings in the Dashboard. When using an HDMI, set the HDTV setting to Optimal Resolution.

This issue may also be caused by not connecting the HDMI directly to your TV. If the Xbox 360 is connected to a switching device (AV switch, receiver, ect.) bypass the device and connect the console to directly to the TV.

Your HDTV may have an image-enhancement feature or any kind of digital noise-reduction feature, this may have to be turned off.

A good rule of thumb is to connect your Xbox 360 console repairs to the Internet and obtain any available automatic Dashboard updates from the Xbox LIVE service.

If you are still having an issue with HDMI try another method to connect to your HDTV. One way is to use your Xbox 360 Component HD AV Cable.

Top Ten Repair List

Admin — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 12:56:08 +0000

Video Game Repair is owned and operated by Videogame911.com. With countless years repairing and replacing video game systems. We bring the expertise you would expect when shipping and repairing your system. Trust us, we are gamers too we understand how important it is to get you back in the gaming seat. So feel free to look around you will find all the needed information regarding your system platform.

Every day we repair systems with every problem imaginable. While we feel that we have seen everything, there is always something which surprises us and shows us that there are some common issues which many systems have in common. With this in mind, we have compiled a fun but TRUE list of the top ten things that you should do to avoid the repair shop.

10. Liquids and video game systems do not mix. Try your best to avoid spilling beer, soda, and also watch so your dog does not pee on your Xbox 360 elite. All of these are a major problem for a working console.

9. Bugs love warm places. If creepy crawlies have moved into your home, there is a good chance they will find the power supply of your expensive Playstation 3. There is enough room inside for a bunch of them and they are conductive. Soon one or more will short a circuit and send your system into meltdown. Get an exterminator.

8. Wii’s are great for youngsters to enjoy and play with. Just beware that your kids will think care and feeding requires that they insert all sorts of creative items into their drive “mouths”. Your system is not a piggy bank. Loose change is a great thing when it isn’t stored inside of your DVD drive. It is heavy and does not play nice when jammed into the mechanism and gears of your unit. The one nice thing, www.videogame911.com will always return the coins with your repaired system. Word of advice, keep the system high up on top of the entertainment unit out of their reach.

7. Don’t find out when it is too late that your system does not bounce. If it has fallen, it won’t get up without our help.

6. Your DS fits nicely into your back pocket, try to remember that BEFORE you sit on it.

5. PSP discs do not go inside of your PS3 drive. They may fit into the slot and make your PS3 drive sound like a crash in Motorstorm, but GAME OVER will turn into Repair ON.

4. While you may have the most legit reasons for attempting to modify your console to play backups, this isn’t the best idea for some of you. If you plan on doing it, buy a couple of modchips and consoles so you can get it right the fourth or fifth time. Fill out a sell order with us for the systems you destroy and we will try to reimburse you for these horribly expensive failed attempts.

3. Sibling rivalries are as data damaging as a scorned girlfriend. Don’t let your younger brother’s frustration with you result in a broken system. Even more, a jealous 95lb girlfriend can throw a PS3 farther than you would like to know.

2. Auction and classified add websites and great places to find deals. Please remember to read the fine print and that AS-IS systems are that way for a reason. Don’t expect to buy broken and then send us a unit which is filled with weights instead of electronics. Gullible is in the dictionary and it should be on page 1.

1. Don’t fight your disc tray or drive ejecting. Doing so will misalign the loading mechanisms. If your game/DVD/music disc gets jammed in the console, do not use a screwdriver/knife/other sharp objects to remove the disc. Also, do not use a crowbar to try to access the inside of the drive. We guarantee your system will need drive parts replaced if you use force to remove the disc from the drive. Be gentle and hope for the best. Error on the side of caution…

Dust in the wind …..

Admin — Wed, 23 Jul 2008 19:04:57 +0000

How pertinent is the old Kansas song as it applies to your xbox360/playstation 3 console. We frequently deal with removing dust from videogame systems. Dust particles are highly conductive and are the most common cause for many of the repairs we complete. Many ask us “How is it best to keep my system dust free and out of the videogame repair shop?” Follow these steps carefully and your system will survive when others won’t.

1. Keep the system in a room which is dusted frequently. Never use the system in a highly dusty environment, such as garages and dusty work spaces.

2. Do not use compressed air to clean your videogame system. While this may eradicate some dust from the console it frequently coats the laser lens and DVD drive errors will occur.

3. The best advice and ONLY when your system is completely COOL use a powerful vacuum to extract the dust from the rear exhaust and side vents.

Videogame911.com completely cleans all clients systems during our standard repair process.
“Everything is dust in the wind” so be sure to follow step 3 carefully and your system will be stable for years.

Don’t try to replace your PS3 Blu Ray or xBox360 DVD drive without reading this first

Admin — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 02:06:48 +0000

While we highly recommend leaving the repair of your video game system to the xbox 360 experts, we regularly receive orders from clients who have tried to unsuccessfully repair their own systems. Many of the repair attempts center around replacement DVD drives. Commonly clients go out on E-Bay and other websites and purchase replacement Blu Ray or DVD drives for their PS3 and xBox360 systems. What the sellers don’t tell you is that after you pay top dollar for the drive replacement, the system will not work with the new drive. The original system drives are electronically married to the motherboard of the system which makes the attempted repairs virtually impossible to complete successfully. Once the replacement drive is installed, the system will play movies, but it will no longer play games. Basically it will turn your expensive video game system into a basic DVD player, which is not what you would expect.

We do have some advice for you. DON’T DO IT! In addition to wasting your money on parts, after a great deal of effort you will learn that www.videogame911.com is the best way to solve your problems and get you back in the game. Don’t be fooled by sellers who are not providing this information to you. VideoGame911.com has 100% of parts in stock to repair drive errors and you will only pay for the parts which are replaced, not the entire drive. Hopefully you will read this BEFORE you buy a high priced replacement, but whatever the case www.videogame911.com is here to help. Send us your system with the original drive and we will get you back into the game.

We are ready to turn your game over into a GAME ON!
