I just got an Xbox 360 today and im loving it so far, but i couldnt help but notice in the store some of boxes for the pro system say "go pro" on them but mine doesnt. Mine came with all the same stuff, i think, and the two free games. I also checked the back of the console apon getting home and it has the HDMI output thing that the newer ones have. So i am probably just being paranoid but i need some assurence. Did i miss something in not have one that says "go Pro" on the box?
Thanks ahead of time.

Go Pro is just one way of almost being guaranteed a Falcon motherboard. Chunkee you have a new Falcon board.

SpecWB if you look on the power brick and see 175w its a Falcon. If its 203w you have 50/50 of having a older board. Just so you know the new Falcon board has the cooler running 65nm CPU. But you might be missing out on a cooler/longer lasting system.

I almost got scared when u said it wasnt a garuntee, so of course i ran down the stairs to look at the power brick and it says 175 watts. Does this mean i can now breath a sigh of relief?
thanks

I was just digging through the boxes of xboxes at Bestbuy today and I notice that some have new stickers that don't say 203 or 175W on them.

Conclusion : Microsoft is getting evil again.
