London Console Questions

[gtskater]

From what I can gather, Will is a busy guy, so I thought I'd ask these here. I looked around and did a search but couldn't find definite answers. If they don't get a definite answer here, I'll ask Will.

1. Is the standard AV cable that comes with Xbox only composite. Will seems to make a point of supplying an RGB Scart cable. Is this because it's a different cable than what comes in the box as standard?

2. Does Will supply the Xbox's with Halo and Midtown Madness 3 like premodded.com do?

3. I assume Will is ok to pre-load software like the dashboard and Xbox Media Player onto the HD. Can someone confirm?

4. Are the prices on Will's site up-to-date for modded Xbox's?

5. Does the DVD drive matter anymore? Does Will account for this and fit only drives that are more likely to work than others? Or is it a case of - you get what you're given?

6. Is Will willing to fit a bigger HD when buying a new modded Xbox?

7. Is there anything else to consider?

If anyone can even answer only one of these questions, it would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

The standard AV cable is composite only. The RGB cable (if you have an RGB capable telly) is miles better than the standard lead.

As for the other questions, you really are better off dropping him an email - he can't be _that_ busy can he?

And PS, he's done a grand job on my PS2 and Xbox.

Didn't get a reply from them so I went elsewhere

Might be my email I guess...

The Xbox only comes with composite (phono leads and Scart Box converter)

3. I assume Will is ok to pre-load software like the dashboard and Xbox Media Player onto the HD. Can someone confirm?

He did when i had mine

I got the samsung one in mine, not sure if it was just luck or if he only sells them, i wasnt really bothered as i do it all over FTP.

6. Is Will willing to fit a bigger HD when buying a new modded Xbox?

He doesnt advertise it but he did fit a bigger 1 for me.

Anyone know if Will is still in business? A previous customer has some new work for him on his 360! Any contact details?

Otherwise can anyone recommend anyone else in London.. preferably in the same are of London seeing as he's just up the road from me.

Thanks.

[Bleeders]

I'll try and find out.

[Pavey]

He's not, but might be best if he tells you that himself. Don't want to lose the man business.

If it's naughty stuff you want doing to your 360, there is a place near me that does it (London Colney).

[Bleeders]

Nick's right, he isn't. Think he's in Japan at the moment.

[jabberwock1977]

Thanks everyone... most helpful. Anyone know when he's back?

And thanks Nick... Colney is a bit of a trek though so I'll probably try to find somewhere more local first. Anyone?

[Pavey]

i did know a guy in Brixton, i'll try and get his number, if he's still doing it.
