 360 is for (circle)....the 360 ring of death.

It comes out to 360 degrees when you add the inside angles of two triangles together, if that's what you mean.

Anyways, a cirlce is 360 degrees, something everyone learns before they are born.

Don't blame it on me when the 360 can't even fail reliably, maybe M$ forgot to install more lights like how they forgot to properly install better cooling or dvd drives that don't scratch your dvds.

Actually, four red rings would mean power supply problem or something, and you can simply solve it by rebooting your xbox 360. I thought you'd come with a better explanation, something like:

360 is all about acting big about improvement, but ending at the same direction as last time.

Now THAT would have been worth a cookie.

I thought it means the appearance of the console...Turns out the console not even round at all. Now we got this slim and curvy console that calls itself '360' infact its actually 180...

360 days or 360 hours? :o

you guys had me LOL with your posts,

if a 360 lasts for 360 days it would be an acheivement. I'd go with 360 hours.

it seems that most people have their own interpretation of what 360 means, anyone have more? I want to laugh still.

I thought of something clever. Since 360 degrees makes a circle (oh god took me a while to figure that one out :roll: ) It's like a never ending cycle: Get the 360 from the store, go home, breaks down, return to store, get new one, return home, rinse and repeat. However this is not the case, 360's do not ALWAYS break down. Mine's in good shape.

Don't blame it on me when the 360 can't even fail reliably, maybe M$ forgot to install more lights like how they forgot to properly install better cooling or dvd drives that don't scratch your dvds.

~-~All four things light up to form a REAL circle when you don't have it plugged into a TV. And it's called the 360 cuz it put you at the center of the most powerful gaming experience. (which it was when it came out. Don't know the specs so I'm not going to get into the 360/PS3 power argument.) [/humoring the fanboy]~-~

If it truly puts you in the most powerful gaming experience, what does 360 have to do with that?

I think the other interpretations have more validity, here are the possible interpretations so far :-

1) Ring of Death

2) 360 days before it breaks (Lol, that's almost 1 year).

3) 360 hours before it breaks :D

4) 360 space needed all around it to prevent overheating.

5) The endless cycle of turn on, ring of death, ship, repair, get refurbashed, turn on.... etc etc.

Hmmm, how about this one.....keep away from it a safe distance of 360 yards to avoid being infected with bad gaming console fanboyism.

actually, it is a complete rotation. Anything can turn 360 degrees, a square, trapezoid, parallelogram.

 

So event though you're just trolling and trying to be clever, you're still amazingly wrong. pretty sad actually.

A lot of people take care of their 360 so it doesn't break. Oh and this fall when the 65nm 360 is out what are you fanboys going to say then.

PS3 stands for People are Suckers if they think it's 3 times more powerful than the 360. :lol: It's underpowered that is why it doesn't overheat. Look at FEAR that game blows on the PS3 compared to the 360 version. :lol:

Fine, if it comes out and it doesn't show the ring of death I'll be OK. However, M$ has been really silent about the issue, which is no encouragement. As I see it right now, M$ is pawning lemmings hard. I don't think M$ will be capable of making the 360 more reliable, for goodness sake, it's been out for 1 and 1/2 years, and they still haven't fixed the problem which is lousy. How long will it take them? maybe next generation? For now they will keep blaming customers :)

GREAT COMPANY !! the 360 breaks just like Windows used to crash...frequently.

Actually, the ring of death is only 3 4'ths of a circle. A full red ring means your audio/video cable isn't plugged in.
