Xbox 360 Elite’s hardware issues shown on video

There’s not a shadow of doubt that the Xbox 360 Elite launch has been a smashing success when you talk about sales. American fans have responded to Microsoft‘s invitation to the future of gaming and embraced the Elite like there was no tomorrow.

It’s a little heart-wrenching, though, to get reports that the machine has a lot of the old hardware issues that made the original model less than a perfect machine. Sites have been reporting the same noise levels, heat issues and disc-scratching incidents. Scarier still, is the fact that incidents where the three red lights of doom have flashed have been noted.

According to some experiments conducted by reputable sources, the HDMI port added is the key feature added in the new mix. However, they did say that the differences between component and HDMI output seemed almost negligible. Check out the video and tell is what you think.
