is it best to allow the xbox (not 360) to warm up before you play?

Uh..I never have let mine "warm up" before I use mine, and mines still working. I doubt very much you need to let it "warm up"

The only thing I've heard of with Xboxes "warming up" or the like is when you buy them new, as in brand new. You were supposed to let it sit of a while in a warm room incase there's condensation which could short curcuit it. That was apparently what happened to some of the people who got their 360's midnight when they came out. But yeah the answer would be no mate.

Maybe if you buy it out of someone's cellar... dozingoff.gif

I didn't... and it's been fine for over a year and a half.. There's really no need, but you can if you want, and take that time to sort out the settings and maybe slap some music on the hardrive.

I have never heard of anybody actually breaking something due to condensation, but I am aware that you are ment to leave electrical goods such as consoles in a warm place before using them if they have been stored in a cold place for a long time (Garage, Vehicle etc.). I have noticed it a few times in user manuals and things. Its probably realy rare, just the companies trying to protect themselves from lawsuits or somthing.
