How to Make Money by Playing Games by Tyler

If you have been wondering how to make cash by playing games all day, I have something very important to tell you. The gaming industry today is filled with new games that constantly need to be checked and rechecked to make sure everything goes okay. With the huge amount of video games coming out that is not possible without extra help from guys like you and me.

Game consoles like the ps3 and xbox360 are very competitive. Game developers such as Sony and Microsoft know how vital it is to have every video game they create play and run smoothly. Because if their games are having issues the word will spread like wildfire and they will lose hundreds if not thousands of customers and dollars.


Here is where gamers like us come in to play. You can earn money every day if you apply to be a game tester. We can actually make tons of money off of these companies by signing up to be a video game tester. You can make money by taking the newest games these companies have to offer and play them through and take notes. Gaming companies stress the importance of attention to detail!

You are given a couple games to test out every week and you decide how long you want to play. The more problems that you find the more money you will get! There are plenty of other fake ways people claim to make money on, but the real way is to actually get in contact with the company itself, then fill out application forms and wait a few weeks for them to reply.

Quick Solution To Your Xbox360

By George Uchegbu

If you have been having some of those "regular" problems with
your Xbox360 and have been looking for for a quick fix or
solution
, then this is going to be of help to you.The 3 common
problems experienced by this Xbox360 game ware are: firstly,the
Xbox 360 red ring can be a full ring,which means all four of the
green lights around the start button turn red,thereby preventing
the Xbox 360 from working or you being unable to play games or
DVDs. Secondly,in some cases you will discover that you have
been presented with the 3 red lights problem in your Xbox 360,
this could lead to damage of some of the electronic components
of the system.Finally,the Xbox 360 can also experience just one
red light and it also means a problem which needs fixing. By the
time you finish reading this article you would be able to fix
this problems yourself and know exactly why it happens.

The first problem of the Xbox 360 where all the four of the
green lights turn red, is as a result of the Alternating
Current(A/C) cable not working.And this can be easily fixed by
removing the cable and reconnecting it properly. Because it
could be that it is not properly connected earlier.Another
solution to this,is proper cleaning of the ends of the cable to
allow for proper contact.Sometimes, accumulation of tiny
particles or dust could also block proper contact between the
electronic components.

Secondly,the problem of 3 red lights manifesting on your Xbox
360 is basically as a result of inproper ventilation of the
system. The electronic components when at work gives out heat
and the system is designed such a way it does not retain heat
inorder not to damage the components.Sometimes, out of ignorance
you cover up the cooling vents,this makes the system abnormally
hot.The simple solution to this is to allow the system to cool
off before putting into use again.Make sure the cooling vents
are always expose to where air could penetrate inside of it, and
it is blocked by anything.

Finally,the issue of one red light turning on,is another of
this "regular" problem with quick solution.It's basically
results from hardware failure and somewhat as a result of
overheating too. Hence,proper ventilation is needed.You can
allow your Xbox 360 to rest for a while before playing another
game. Occasionally,it could be as a result of electronic
component failure and this can be fixed by a technician.But this
is in rare situations only.

Now that you know how to carry out a quick solution to this
"regular" Xbox 360 problem,the next time your Xbox 360 develop
this problem keep this solutions in mind.Specifically, remember
not to allow your Xbox 360 to overheat or accumulate dust.So get
out of your worries whenever your Xbox 360 is faced with this
problems and fix them.

How to Mod a Xbox 360

ByBai Zijian.
How to mod a Xbox360. First you will need a few things to be
able to mod a Xbox 360. You will need a Xbox, a modchip, a
PC , and a screwdriver set. First you need to know a few things
about what a modchip is and why you need it. A modchip allows
you to bypasses certain xbox 360 checks so you can play
applications, dvd-r, backups. A good modchip will have a on/off
switch so you can turn off the modchip so you can play on xbox
live.


Now you are ready to take apart and mod the xbox360. Start by
taking off the Hard Drive by pressing the button and lifting it
off the system. Then set the system upside down and place your
thumb in the memory slot holes and your fingers along the base
of the system. You then take the faceplate off slowly. The piece
should come off without any problems. Now remove the Microsoft
Seal and void your warranty. You should see tabs on each side.
These tabs keep the top and bottom pieces connected to the
system.

Now to remove the pieces you will need a small flat tip
screwdriver. You will now need to push plastic tabs within the
holes and push them in with your screwdriver. Each piece has 6
tabs. To remove the last top grey piece, you will need to remove
the rubber pad that’s covering the hole. use a spare screwdriver
to hold up the popped tabs. After the pieces have been removed,
you will see small notches on the left and right sides of the
system.

You will need a screwdriver to successfully complete this step.
Starting on the side closest to the power supply, push the
screwdriver into the space until you hear a pop. After you have
heard the pop I suggest using another screwdriver to keep the
top and bottom of the system apart. After you have completed the
left side, start on the other side and repeat the process. You
should now be able to separate the bottom portion of the system.
Now lift away the cover of your system and begin the unscrewing
process.

Unscrew all the torque screws to be able to remove the cover.
Turn over the system and remove the DVD arm and top cover. Next
you will want to disconnect the SATA and Power connectors and
the DVD will come out of the case. You have now successfully
removed your DVD drive from your Xbox and can now remove the
plastic air shoots. Reassembly is easy, just follow the steps in
reverse.

You are now ready to install the modchip. Since there are
different modchips and you need to go to the manufactures web
site for installing instructions. After installing your modchip
you will need to flash the firmware. This usually involves a usb
tool for the modchip. Download the firmware on to your PC,the
connect the usb tool and transfer the firmware from the PC to
the tool. Connect the tool to the usb connection on the modchip
and flash the modchips firmware. You will want to check the
modchips website to find out how many firmwares each chip can
hold and flashing instructions.

At this point you are ready to put everything back together and
start playing on your Xbox360. That’s how to mod a Xbox360.
