I want to cop a XBOX 360 to play a bunch of games i missed out on, mostly the old 2k & madden games and midnight club, old halo etc.

From my research the XBOX 360 E was the last model to be released. my question is, does it suffer from the red ring of death as well? Is it reliable? I've read good things on it such as it being quiet and i like the look of it compared to the others.

Amazon has a refurbished model at $250 but that might be too much. Im looking on ebay and the sweet spot for a decent looking console is at $100-165. I dont want to pay over $200 to be honest.

Should i look at a different model? do you know of a site selling a clean one for cheap?

why would you do that? Xbox one is backwards compatible...I think so is the xbox series x but not sure
I looked up old games like madden, NBA 2k and its not on the list of compatible games to the xbox one. The Series X would be breaking the bank.

I was looking at the Xbox one but it seems like buying a 360 and buying the old games online for 5-10 bucks a piece would be the move to make.

It doesn't get the red rings of death, I have this version cause my OG 1 had the red rings
