http://videogames.yahoo.com/feature/microsoft-faces-new-xbox-360-reliability-accusations/1274293

This is the company you support so loyally, read carefully, especially those of you who've had RROD or other hardware issues, because Microsoft knew, they knew all about the problems that plagued this system, prior to release but they released it anyway, and ended up costing loyal customers one headache after another of CSR calls, returns, repairs, shipping, and weeks and months of lost game time way before implementing the 3 year warranty deal, which by the way is over for most 360 owners and does not exist for new 360 owners.

So what are you so loyal to ?, 360 and PS3 libraries are virtually identical, barring a few exclusives, which PS3 happens to have more of, and Sony definitely has the more reliable console, with the more advanced hardware.

I mean ask your self how much are you going to continue to spend on repaired or replacement consoles, and then how much more for the yearly Live subscription, it's not worth it, PS3 users have the exact same gaming experience for free and now with the new and ever evolving social community of HOME it's a new place to hang, meet friends play games, shop, hang out, hook up with more gamers.

Speaking personally for me the proof is in the pudding: example i had my 360 Elite for over a year before trading up for the PS3 and i only had 2 people in my friends list.

I've had Playstation HOME for mere days and i have almost 20 people in my friends list, yeah i know most of you see my user name and are like

" yeah whatever ", but i started with 360 first, i waited on line all night in front of Best Buy in 2005 for that 360 and for my trouble that 360 went RROD, and so did the 2 that followed, so i paid my money, dues, and patience to Microsoft and now i'm done with them for good.

That's why i say you guy's are backing the wrong company, but hey believe what you want, because i'm sure none of you who have had issues with your 360 will consider anything a Sony fanboy says anyway, but it was worth a shot.

Dude, there's like 3 threads on this already. Your taking too long desperately searching through news websites, trying to find something that'll make you sleep at night.

I don't support MS. I just like the 360. Well worth the purchase. The proof is in the hours I spent playing games.

My xbox has died twice now, but I still love it more than my PS3 and Wii combined. If it wasn't for MGS4, Uncharted, or movies, I would never turn then damn thing on.

Cry about it much? Thats why I kept on enjoying my Ps2 and now that alot of these problems are gone or hard to get, I now have purchased a 360... I want a ps3 so badly but 360 has my vote for the time being because of its price.

I don't hate or love Microsoft. I just don't care enough. My 360 is working fine and I'm able to play my games and watch Netflix movies. I'm happy with it.

Well im just trying to say, if MS is so well worth the purchase, it is for the games, they should refund every gamer who has had to buy another 360 instead of letting a high percentage of them break down due to RROD or DRE

Why have you had to purchase multiple consoles? Did you seriously outlast the 3 year warranty and not want to pay for the repair? What could possibly have caused you to have to buy a brand new one?

Oh really its about the games okay how about these: Ratchet and Clank T.o.D, Resistance 1 & 2, GTA 5, MLB The Show 07-08, Little Big Planet, Killzone 2, God of War 3, Heavenly Sword,Uncharted 1 & 2, Valkyria Chronicles, White Knight Chronicles, Metal Gear Solid 4, Motorstorm, Infamous. How's that for games, plus the superior, glitch free versions of all multiplats.

Well when it's 200 dollars to fix my DRE, Why shouldnt I just buy a new console? I did, I had to buy a updated one that isn't a ticking time bomb?

I was never loyal to that vile company in the first place, but I wouldn't call it a mistaken purchase. I've had 3 RROD's in the space of a year though which is utterly ridiculous.

Microsoft did not implement the 3 year warranty from day one, they started it like 6 months later.

His point wasn't that the PS3 doesn't have games, but that the 360 has a whole load of games that can't be played on the PS3. The PS3 gets glitch free versions of all multiplats? Ha, are you delusional? The 360 is half the price of a PS3, and the vast majority of people will never encounter a RROD or a scratched disc. If you move the console when the disc is spinning, you deserve to have a scratched disc. That's just idiotic.

Yeah, but in the mean time they had a 1 year warranty. So what's your point?

Why does it seem the cows care more about the 360s problems than the 360 owners? I had a 360 for nearly 3 years, and other than it RROD on me once I had alot of fun out of it, and it wasn't a mistake buying it.
