Can my xbox 360 get fried in a thunderstorm?

Okay, I know how your computer can get fried if you go on it in a thunderstorm, but, is it safe to play my xbox in a thunderstorm? I’m not playing live. I played ps2 once in a thunderstorm and nothing happened, but I love my xbox 360 way to much to get it fried. Can I play it?

i play my 360 durning thunderstorms just dont have to many plugs plugged into the same outlet where you plug your 360 that should be fine
Anything plugged into the wall runs the risk of getting fried in a storm. Where I work, we had the open sign, one out of the 3 computers, the router, and one printer all get fried in a storm. But the other 2 computers were fine, as well as all the other machinery.
You’ll be fine if you have circuit breakers etc.
If you care that much just use a surge protector plug which’ll break the circuit if the current gets too high.
Pretty nice post. I just stumbled upon your blog and wanted to say that I have really enjoyed browsing your blog posts. In any case I’ll be subscribing to your feed and I hope you write again soon!
