Opus-model 360s begining to flow? Posted Jun 18th 2008 1:30AM by Terrence Stasse Filed under: News Thanks to a tipster in our last post, we've now heard our first real world tale of the previously rumored "Zombie Repaired" 360, code named Opus. The Opus "model" is for those who have had their 360's red ring and have sent them off to Microsoft for repair. In an effort to use (instead of toss) the older Xenon motherboards, Microsoft is basically upgrading repaired 360's with the Falcon model chips (65nm CPU, 90nm GPU) and one of the older motherboards that doesn't have have HDMI, effectively creating a zombie 360 that cannot be purchased in stores. According to a specific poster over at GameTrailers, when a repaired RROD is now returned to its owner it includes a slip of paper marked "OPUS" as well as a new power supply. So if you've recently had a 360 red ring, keep an eye out for that little slip of paper when it returns, as it basically says that your 360 is now of the undead, and thus is quite unlikely to ever die again. Source Copied from Xbox 360 Fanboy. What do you think? Will it end RROD for good?
Hope for the best. Expect the worst. Are they gonna drop a bomb on us? That song pretty much sums it up.
Well I just sent my xbox in for the RROD so who knows what i'll get back. I'd rather they just give me a new one like last time.
Dam I hope it works, just got RRoD yesterday and am gonna send it in soon. They should give like, a skin or something to it so it looks Zombiefied, like claw marks and stuff, so it is awesomer! lol hope it works though!
