Seems like that would be it but the extra weight feels like it would be more. However good to know, nice to see pics and if it does (touch wood) ever die then i'll open it up and find out!

I thought that but it had marks on it and the usb was broken from before I sent it and was when I got it back, so they opened mine, put what I assume is a massive heatsink and sent it back, I was just curious as haven't heard of a similar case. I'm in NZ by the way so it was serviced somewhere in Australia

So listening to the latest bomcast about Patricks second xbox still, I figured I'd ask a question I've had for a while. I'm on an original launch day 360 It died about 1.5 years after launch so got sent off to be repaired and has been fine since (kinda.. the disc tray is dodgy and the front two usb ports short it out sometimes and reset it). When i got it back however it was significantly heavier, like half as much again, I compared to my friends just to be sure. Any idea what they did with it? I don't want to open it up as will need for next generation!

Yea your probably right. No been playing and reading since Halo 1. I don't have time to play/read them all again, as working 70 hour weeks and only have a week, till 4 i'll just finish the book and browse the wikis.

Yea I've looked at the wiki stuff (including the halo wiki which is very good) but wanted something which had them all in one place.

Thanks anyway

Kinda, but something more cohesive? For all I know this may not even exist.

So with Halo 4 approaching I'm keen to catch up on the Halo story, i know the games well plus watching the livestream and read most of the books but there's lots i miss through comics etc. I'm looking for a good summary of the entire halo story, it doesn't have to be super detailed, just enough to cover major beats. From first strike all the way through the games to ghosts of onyx (i'm reading glasslands atm). Wiki's are usually good at this sort of thing but i haven't found quite what I'm looking for. I found one for Command and Conquer a while back and it was really interesting. Does anyone know if there's one out there?

Thanks!
