Replacing 250gb with another one...

    Hey guys...

    I reported a fault with my controller with Amazon yesterday, it turns off on its own even with full batteries. They immediately said they'd ship a whole new Xbox 360 to me, even though its just the controller that needs replacing (this seems a bit ridiculous and a needless cost). The console is only a couple of months old.

    Would you recommend I just keep my own console and send them back the new one or take it and do a hard drive transfer, install all the updates etc again and use that one? Also, I presume my Xbox Gold account keeps all my achievements and avatar settings and I can just log in from the new machine and all will be there?

    Thanks!
