Bought a RROD Xbox 360 for this reason, bought it for £10, HDD £10 and fixing it cost me £3. £26 for a now working xbox just for GTA 5.
Shame it won't be on PC and I hope it will later on at least.
Don't start this. Some people prefer OS X and some people prefer Windows. Everyone knows that this will turn into fanboys defending each OS and will be the same on every other discussion about this. I own both Windows and Mac.

I do prefer PC over Xbox, the majority of games you can still use a controller for.
I'm terrible with keyboard and mouse...
One thing I prefer on Xbox is use of a 360 controller on COD, only game that bothers me and I wasted money on MW3 last year buying it and finding out I am crap on keyboard and mouse. My only complaint. Oh, and GTA 5 won't be out on the same day as Console.
I was hooked on Far Cry 3, completed it now and it's a bit boring.
I tried DayZ but it looked fun, but didn't turn out to be like the YouTubers played it out to be.
Assassins Creed I've been playing for a month, on and off, I like it but it's not as good as AC2. I can't get hooked on it because I fail at moving eavesdropping missions.
GTA 4 I love but I rarely play it anymore.
I need a new game to get hooked on. D:
About 3 months ago I bought a new motherboard, I didn't have enough standoffs in my case as my past mono was matx. It was just restarting over and over. I finally noticed a part of the mobo was touching the case. That was the problem. The audio hasn't worked on that motherboard. Any was to fix?
I have a phantom and I want to upgrade all my fans to decent as close to silent ones. So I need help choosing new ones
Noctua ones don't appeal to me due to the colors not going with my internals.
LED or not I don't mine about it.
Thanks.
