thanks fro. so helpful .

bart- i did the google image thing for bout 10 pages without any satisfactory pics, but thanks anyway

edit. is it possible to tell if its a 3 prong or 2 prong from the pic here?

[beachbum]

Do they make a 2 prong? highlyyy doubt it.

How can you not tell from the images? Im looking at the second image from google images and can see 3 lines (the female ends) showing.

i was under the impression that they made a newer model or something with only 2 prongs:confused:

Im quite sure my 360 is a 3-pronger. Why didnt yours come with one?

[DjMattyD]

All the 360's at my work (about 9) are 2 prongs.

where do you work that has 9 360's going ?? unless its a game shop?

[ghostsushi]

.shrug. seems like an unsolveable issue without the actual brick in my hands .. i think i'll just take a chance and get a $5 3 pronger off ebay. should work even if i do end up getting a 2er

thanks all for your input

you can clearly see in the pic that it's 3 prong. I've got like 10 of those things at my house.

Ah yes. You are correct ghost.

there is a two and a three prong PSU. the 2 prong is a newer version...although I, and we, have no idea how to tell which you have. From what I was reading I dont think there is any difference besides the prong number.

[DjMattyD]

I'm just wondering why you can't tell which one you need by looking at the brick?
If it has two you need two if it has three you need three......

[ghostsushi]

s. i don't have it yet to go try plugs, the pic is all i've got ..... without the actual brick in my hands
it hasn't arrived yet, and i'm sure i'll be wanting to turn it on once it comes

[ZapBulletRider]

when it arrives, grab one off another electro device that you can do without while you're playing.

ghostsushi is not goo at the internets illustrated by the question and his triple-post.

[ZapBulletRider]

or illustrated (literally) by the fact that in all the pics you can clearly see it's a 3 prong.
