If Microsoft didn't rush to get the 360, then this probably wouldn't have happened. I mean, they could have tested the 360 out a lot more, found more flaws, fix them, then ship out the fixed ones a little later than the launch date, and still release it months before the PS3 and the Wii.
[QUOTE="Dualshockin"][QUOTE="SpruceCaboose"]They've admitted the problem and are fixing it for no charge to consumers. I don't think a lawsuit would do much in this case that MS isn't already doing.Dualshockin
You do know that there are laws that prohibit the selling of faulty hardware? Now,when a company admits the hardware they are selling is faulty,what do you think will happen?
Is this a trick question? They are legally required to fix the defective items at their costs, and if there is a safety issue (which there is not) they are required to issue a product recall. MS is already fixing the issues for free.
Wait a second:You think that if they fix the consoles for free,this means they're safe from the law? Microsoft Corp are selling hardware with a design flaw that impacts the consoles performance and reliability. This,is breaking the law.
i find it amusing that you are talking out of your arse. i dont how it is in your area but where i live its a requirement to take government/economics. i'm guessing you didnt take it yet or didnt pay attention in class. ;)
i think this guy made this post to try and get people to buy a ps3. Look you have no clue what your talking about if all 360s were deffective then they wouldn't of said just 30% now would they think about that before you write and also i don't remember them saying 30% that was speculation. the problem was some people are having problems with the red ring of death or what ever its called you ship it microsoft and they fix it for free thanks to the 3 year warrenty. man i wish sony had done that with the ps2 before my ps2 had a disc read problem instead i had to fix it myself and risk breaking it more. Judging from what microsoft has done and what sony has not done in the past i will say microsoft is still a more reliable company.
the problem is there is a chance, i cant standthe the fact that some guys are defending this flaw it feels liek some people sit next to their box and say to themself i hope you wont fail on me and praying......
THATS NOT ACCEPTABLE i wanna feel good about my system without knowing that there is a chance of exploding i would go to microsoft with the box and demand a new one...

Funny, I remember lots of people having to hope their PS2s didn't get a disc read error either...(mine eventually did)
And I like how everyone says the 360s will explode, since that makes them seem that much more dangerous. They don't explode. They don't catch fire. When they red ring, they just stop working.
Why do you keep bringing up the PS2? You can't justify what's happening with the 360 by yelling PS2 in response. Seriously.
[QUOTE="SpruceCaboose"][QUOTE="legalize3"] where did i say 11 mil red ringed ? no where

I read through this whole topic LMAO @ the Sony fanboys who are spreadingg gloom and doom. You guys are just too much. Go play your AAA Xbox port. 8)
A design flaw is something that COULD cause problems under certain conditions. e.g. Very hot/humid environments.
A defect IS something that causes problems.
Not all 360s have problems, thus not all 360s are defective. This is called deductive reasoning, children.
Anyone who owns any electronic device should understand that said itewm WILL break down, eventually, even the PS3 and Wii.

Actually, the small minority of people that happen to have an AAS degree in electronics [like me] fully comprehend what this saying. A design flaw just implies a potential problem. If I took apart a PS3 and Wii and studied schematics on both, I'm sure I could find flaws on both as well. Using 'Bovine' Logic that would mean both are 100% defective as well. If you cows want to debunk me, you better have working knowledge of electronics.
