Game Crazy on 2008-12-20 |
Tucson, AZ - (Lot#: 845x - Label on box says "XBOX 360 PRO SYSTEM VALUE BUNDLE 2008 EN/E") - Have been looking forever for this! Been watching a ton of sites for hints of Jasper, then 60GB Pro Jaspers. Heard someone got one at Best Buy in Salt Lake City. No Dice in Tucson. Called a number of stores, a few checked lot numbers for me, tried to see amps but couldn't. Finally went out looking. K-Mart had old shipment still in. Target had a lot 844x so I was stoked but when I pushed the cardboard over it said 14.2A. Grr. Kept looking and finally went to Game Crazy at Hollywood Video on E 22nd St. Funny guys in there. I had called earlier but they couldn't confirm a Jasper for me (didn't know about it, either). Said they had one Pro 60GB left. Brought out Elite by accident but I didn't notice and was bummed by old lot #. Then I'm like, go get the Pro. Turned out it was 12.1A! Yowza! Me and gf were joyous! Hallelujah! Been waiting since 2005 to get a 360. -- Of note: power brick says 175 Watts, and 14.2A output. DVD is kinda loud (I was scared) but I haven't really played normal 360s so I can't compare. Not too bad. Also, doesn't look like 256MB internal is installed (just has 47.xGB free on HD in "Memory" section). Assume it's a Lite-On but didn't look for yellow wire. Did the AV cable hack to get both HDMI and 5.1 optical audio. Games and xvids both look/sound great! Watched hi-def Microcosmos xvid last night in 5.1. Unless 12.1A is a lie, this is a genuine Xbox 360 Pro Jasper, out in da wild. Ciao...
