I just got red lights of death on X360 today. The system is made to crash.

My X360 froze and I did a reset. System still didnt work so I turned off console an let it cool down. Fortunately it still runs. The system is unreliable an MS knows this, hence my 3 month warranty. But MS increase warranty to a year.

The fans are loud, hence spinning to fast. Seems to collect dust too much. The last gen dvd drive spins to fast increasing wear an tear faster. The large power brick is located outside far away from the console yet the system still overheats. This is a poorly built system..and I dont want to mention no futurproofing whatsoever thats another topic.

good points i agree, i have these issues with my console to. but i still love it to death!!:P

lol

tough luck buddy.  Do you get a free repair?

PS.  You should have got a PS3.

The 360 is like a High End gaming PC. The PS3 is like a Dell. You can't play it 10 hours and than not let it cool down for a few hours before you play it again. I think most of these problems are oucring because people don't realize that for every 6-8 hours of of game playing you should give the console an hour or two to cool down. That's what I do and I still have mines working great.

ok i dont care this should go to the 360 forum

mine works perfectly and i dont care about your problems mkay?

Plz don't come in here making stupid comments like that. 

everyone knows PS3 kills 360 power wise, let's see 360 do something like "folding".  Hell the 360 can't even play games without over heating just sit down dude.  You get no points for your damage control post.

Ok try putting a PC that equals the 360 power into a case the size of the one the 360 is in. I think you would have problems if you play it for 12 hours straight not giving it time to cool down.

Have you heard of Little big planet, Heavenly Sword, Motortorm, Ninja Gaiden Sigma, WarHawk, Lair...those games don't seem mediocore at all.

I'm sorry to hear that you are oblivious to things going on with the PS3 but that doesn't make the rest of us as ignorant as you seem to be.  Pls no more posts by you about what the PS3 is or isn't until you actually learn about what the PS3 has to offer.  Otherwise, just keep you mouth shut when informed people are haveing a discussion.

My 360 gave me disk read errors the second day of me owning it and playing a brand new game... this tells me that the system is made to be junk from the start. It doesn't overheat... it doesn't get problems over time... it's already junk when you take it out of the box. It just takes some time before it stops working in most instances.

 The thing is loud...

The guide has framerate issues... you're only switching between blades and it lags just doing that.

It gets super hot...

But I still love it because of the amazing games.

Hmmm, sorry if that really happened, but somehow I doubt it after reading all of your other threads.  I'll have to take these threads with a grain of salt unless gamercards are posted.

I know old 360's might have a higher than norm defect rate.  I can't believe everyone is making it up.  However, I know many of these threads are people that are afraid of thier other investments not panning out for them.  Sorry if your not one of them.

All I know is myself and the 5 friends who bought launch systems have had no problems.

No it isn't. The GPU in the 360 is based on the R600 which isn't even out on the PC yet. That generates a lot of heat. So don't claim the 360 doesn't equal a high end PC.

Yep, if one 360 fails, then all the others are as good as dead. I can't believe fanboys these days, they will grasp at anything!her0_54

the only reason why 360 got 10 million sells is because people had to buy the 360 one to three times again since their old ones broke and they don't want to abandon all the games they've bought so far for it. or else the sales would be only 4 million, over a year and 4 million sales, sad. the ps3 is almost reaching 3 million and it's been over 3 months.ddldave
