Beware the Frog

There was a time when I wanted to make a blog about video games, and this is that blog. I’m not really posting anymore, so there’s no point in this, but I can’t quite bring myself to closing this blog.

How To Identify An Xbox 360 Jasper

I’m not sure if it applies to French console, but I can’t quite see why not: the new Jasper consoles are identifiable by the fact that they use 12 amperes instead of 14 (which makes sense if they’re going to fail less often: the less current they use, the less heat they produce), and you can check that through the hole that presents the console’s barcode.

Which means that you should seriously avoid buying an Xbox 360 today without checking for a “12 A” on the technical specs. But then, it’s Christmas, maybe you can’t wait, and I still say the 360 is the best console you can offer someone (or yourself) who has a high-definition TV.
