How to find a Falcon model 360 in stores

Based on the info in this thread, A Falcon model Xbox 360 MUST BE:

1. Lot #0734 (Halo 3) or later (all SKUs) (So far only Halo 3 Lot 0734 consoles have been found with 65nm)
2. Manufactured on or after 8/24/07
3. Team FDOU (Other teams may be Falcon as well, but none have been reported)

 

[USUF]

^ Yeah, those are halo 3 ones. The normal ones started from Lot no 0738.

65% increase in price of xbox 360

"Currently the Premium version of Xbox 360 is being sold for PKR 24,000/-"

Ok, That was posted Jan 2007, but I have just been to a couple of shops in Liberty, Lahore and both of the were asking around Rs. 38,000 for the Go Pro 60GB which is the same spec. apart from the 60GB instead of the 20GB HDD. Everywhere else in the world the price has come down, or at least the spec has increased for the same price! My budget does not stretch that far. what to do! Any suggestions?

^ Welcome to Pakistan and to the gaming Era of Pakistani Gamers

Anyways Jokes Apart, they sell it insanely at high prices that what we discuss here time to time that these shop walas Just Rip the Peoples off here and the price drops never apply here in Pakistan they have ever gloomy excuses to counter the customers dollars rising Pakistani rupee depreciating :blah

So far the best option is to buy it from abroad like UAE , UK or US if u have some sources there, if not than u arent left with any choices but to pay these Rippy Shoppies or just wait for some1 to post offer for sale in the market place of PG (You can get good offers in the market place but it will take time.)

[BeLoShI]

In UAE Shoppers a also facing a low stock right now i have asked my cousin to have a look and he find out that the stock is low there and they are selling it high as compared to previous prices around 850Dirhams for Arcade and they are saying if u do wait till the end of this month like after christmas u can get good deals.

Well if u want a 360 with falcon board and which plays all the games available here in Pakistan then u should buy xbox360 Go Pro ( ASIAN VERSION NTSC-J) or Xbox 360 Arcade (ASIAN / NTSC-J) these r the versions which have 220v supply and play all the games here in Pakistan, if u want to save money then u should get ur 360 from Saudi and get it modified here but it will only play region free games and PAL version games which is not a big deal c`oz PAL version games are also available here on PG in the market place so my advise would be to buy PAL version Arcade save ur money and buy other accessories from it....

 

[VashieenEater]

Thanks!!
im gonna get it soon .... just one more thing....how much can it cost to get a 36o modified from Pak?

You mean modification as of Flashing the Drive to run all the Backups? its different in Different places but make up ur mind that it will take 2000 for the modification or less as well.

 

[VashieenEater]

yeah that flashing thing......2000? thats really cheap man....thanks.....is flashing the same for PAL and NTSC J ??cause im thiniking i should buy a PAL Go Pro 2008....and yeah does flashing make the warranty void?

 

[talalz3]

Yes it voids the warranty

 

[VashieenEater]

aaagh dangit!! but man i think the falcon ones are bettter and have a really less chance of the RroDs?

 

[atifdarr]

Just to add to this thread, can I flash my PAL xbox 360 go pro 60gb so that I will be able to play all the copied games in Pakistan?

First of all the "asian" games are NTSC-J so they cant be played on your Pal console.Although there are many region-free games that you can run on your xbox that are available in the market.As for someone to modify your console contact this guy http://www.pakgamers.com/forums/members/incredibulous.html.he is in karachi.also he can provide you PAL games for your xbox 360.
