RROD and not enough games that appeal to me, well there are two; NG2 and Dead Rising but NGS2 is coming this year and I might as well get the sequal to DR which will be multiplat. I know 360 owners say that their system has the best games but I dont see it, there more Wii titles that appeal to me then anyhting the 360 has.
I play every game worth playing on it (other than halo 3) on my PC or PS3... and it's always better because it looks and runs better and/or it's free to play the game online. Also... controller batteries? Wtf?
RROD is my main reason, so I couldn't vote. Why would you not include that option? It is obvious to everybody that RROD is a big reason a lot of people don't get one. Games is my second reason for not getting a 360. It has nothing I want that i can't get on PS3 or PC.
While I do own and love my 360, I can't blame anyone who doesn't buy one out of fear of getting the RROD, E74, scratched discs etc. Sure it's covered for 3 years by Micro$oft but considering the failure rate of the 360, I personally feel it should be covered for up to 5 years or more. I know electronical devices will fail eventually, but if I'm spending $199 plus, I don't think it's unreasonable for methe customer to ask for a product that they don't have to worry about breaking on them at any moment. That being said the 360 has plenty of games for it to warrant me taking a chance on getting one despite the failure ratings (plus it's the cheapest on all the next gen consoles) not to mention I wanted to have a system that played RE5 when it came out.
I had an Xbox 360 but I don't think I will be picking it up again unless they do a few things. One of them being not having to pay for live when I used it quite sporadically. The second reason is I don't want to have to pay $100 for wi-fi. I could use a wired connection but I don't like having wires running all over the place. They need reduce RROD and e-74 (if they're not the same thing) to less than 3%. I understand consoles are not 100% problem free.

A thread is created '10 reasons why Microsoft is a failure' (nothing wrong there) then another thread is created '10 reasons why Halo is failure' (a fad is slowly beginning) then another thread is created '10 reasons why Brawl is a failure' (a fad trend has started). Before we know it there is a whole flood of similar threads with similar wordings.
