First things first,I am a HUGE 360 fan...THEY DID FIX IT FREE+UPDATED!!!!!!!!!!

my 360 just died,I got it on december 18th 2005,I just got the 3 red lights,on top of all that they just told me that I am out of the "extended" warranty for luanch window buyers:evil: I talked with the rep...mind you this is 9 30 pm...just about 30 minutes ago and he said the best he could do was offer me 25% off...I said I am going to call in the morning to talk to someone higher up or something...I could of swore that the launch window buyers got a longer warranty then the 1 year they offer now.

I am actually very upset and had alot of choice words for them,that was when he offered the 25%off making my repair still over $100...!!! I will be sure to update you guys on what they say tomorrow when I call back and hopefully talk to someone in the upper level ...I figured no one upper level is there past 5 pm,

I took VERY good care of my 360 and if you check back through my post history you can see I educated people on how to care for a console...this is a 100% hardware failure. I have lost some respect for microsoft now and I dont know if I am going to feel the same way if I gotta pay over $100 to get my 360 fixed.....damn you faulty hardware:(

TO BE FAIR TO MICROSOFT I PLAYED OVER 3000 HOURS ON THE MACHINE THOUGH

THEY ARE FIXING IT FOR FREE NOW!!!!!:D:D8)

Bad luck dude.

Hardware issues is the main reason consumers should not get a console at launch. That, price, and lack of games too.
the-very-best

Agreed.  I've never gotten any system at launch.  I waited over a year to get my 360.

That stinks.  I heard there were lots of issues with the launch systems.sonicare

Yet another thread about your dead 360. This doesn't belong here in SW. Take it to the 360 forum.rhaigun

Your supposed to get it fixed for free, its before 06', tell him that. Hes wrong, print the news article on the net and send it with your console, thats bull! Tell em' you want Peter Moore on the phone NOW!Cubs360

I had an overheating problem, where i lost the video completely. I called in, and the rep over there was great that I talked to. It was hard to understand her some of the time because of her accent, but in the end she let me send it in, for free. I bought mine in June of 2006, and never bought a warranty because i've never had system problems(still have my original playstion, n64, xbox, gamcube, snes, all with no problems). So I sent in my 360 and all I had to pay for was shipping which was $16.99. I personally was happy with the service.

that sucks man, i would just keep callin and asking for someone higher up, like youve been trying, and insist on them to fix it for free.

thats what a friend of mine did and it finally worked.  i love my 360 also but no denying that their reliability isnt that great.

I got mine in January of 2006, and it just died on me about 3 weeks ago. :( And considering the warranty has expired....uhh....yeah....I am NOT rebuying it.  I don't feel like spending money on something that didn't work in the first place.  It was in a good spot, kept it cool, no dust, and it STILL died.  Gg.

Uggghh .... I hate to say it, but I may have to end up getting a PS3. I have heard way too many people complaining about the system. I love XBOX, but man, why pay for something that you can't have last forever. My Gamecube and original XBOX still work like new. JDW_games

Lol, yea you had something to say about me selling my 360 in a post last month. Don't mean to laugh at you but it is kind of ironic. I only sold it b/c I had went through my 2nd one.

The 360 is still a cool console and I'll buy another one when Ninja Gaiden 2 comes out.... but the truth is that I have been far more impressed with the PS3 than I was with the 360 (with the exception of a few 360 games that I really did like). If you own an HDTV, the PS3 really does seem like a better console for the money.... but then again, with its price, it really does HAVE to be a better console to even compete.

Still, for those that own a 360 already, the PS3 probably won't be worth owning until the holidays.
