Intro[edit | edit source]

The Xbox 360 came in a few major revisions, with a number of significant subversions.

Original Xbox 360[edit | edit source]

Variants of the original Xbox 360

Some models of the original Xbox 360 didn't have HDMI support, and could only output over console specific AV cables.[1]

This was the only series of Xbox 360 console to feature memory card slots.[1]

Models from this series, especially early models, are highly prone to eventual failure with use over time, resulting in the infamous "Red Ring of Death".

Some sources say that the S in the Xbox 360 S stands for Slim.[2]
