What a damn joke....

The 360 is the worse built console in history....and thats a fact.

I went through 2 my self...didnt bother with another one. Theres No excuse for such a SERIOUS HARDWARE PROBLEM...It isnt just the drive faults..but of MANY fault INCLUDING the most serious be the heating issue. This needs to be fix ASAP...NO more BS and EXTENDED Cr@p.

Scratching disks, overheating, Freezes...you name it, the 360 does it...Geeezus.

If that was the case there wouldn't be a pending class action against Microsoft over one of the system's numerous hardware flaws.

Mine haven't messed up yet and I've had mine since dec 06.

So since yours hasn't got the rings of death...NONE has now, huh?

Its a huge problem...Not every console will die out, but eventually they will...your just lucky. Its a eternal problem and has to do with the bad GPU cooling solution, that MS STILL can't admit and STILL ignore.

And thats suppose to fix the problem? how bout MS get down to what matters which is FIXING the ACTUAL problem..not blinding it with warrantees. Even with 3 years, many will constantly need to send them to get it fix then returned and how long does that take? and how many do each have to go through?

DO you enjoy waiting weeks and weeks to get it back?

Is it not possible he had other issues which aren't covered? The 3RRoD is the most well-known but not the sole hardware problem with the system.

Oops, its actually two. Four if you count the one that was rejected shortly after the system launch (but probably shouldn't have been) and the one filed in December of last year.

Although you being the expert on 360 and all should have known about all of those to begin with.

I didnt say that the warranty fixed the problem and I do admit that i had to send my 360 back for repairs twice which is just plain ridiculous but regardless it does show that Microsoft is aware of the situation and making an decentstep towards fixing the problem(The warranty was against Microsoft's favor financially).

That argument has never flown and never will, the problems are extensive and people should have known that from the beginning. There were problems with 360s mere hours after launch..thats got to be a record or something.

What argument? I'm just stating that I'm still on my first 360. If it does die out on me though, I'll still have my PS3 to play.

Gamespot deems it fit to censor the article links, so you'll have to replace some text. Alternatively you can do a basic search of cl@ss action 360 and come up with it.

Okay fine, but there are a number around here who have and continue to whenever the topic comes up use that to try and invalidate the very real and widespread issues with the system.

No game?...now i can tell thats a cheap shot from a fanboy....can't accept the facts, huh?

PS3 suffers from NO SUCH serious problems like the 360..suck it up...expecially concerning bad GPU cooling..which is the main reason for it..which MS has yet to admit.

MS is being hit with law suits and major complaints...33% failure rate.

PS3_3DO

PS2 never had such a serious problem...like the 360's overheating issues, its by far the worst hardware built and with such a serious fault...nothing much is being done besides more extented warrantees.

So people still continue and throw out there hard earn cash for something that will most likely fail on them.

Err, suck what up? where have u seen me complain about PS3 reviews? I don't even care about Lair or heavenly sword...so calm down, kid.

Its a shame you see this as a fanboy response when OBVIOUSLy its a big deal...but thats okay i don't expect a 360 fanboy to actually take it seriously.

go play your 360, if it still works that is.

Now run along...SHOO

Why can't people read? Where did i state that every 360 dies? Good 4 u if yours still works..but the chances of it failing is high....considering its at a 33% failure rate, right? Why are gamers constantly complaing about the 360? why does MS have a lawsuit in there hands, explain that. Why haven't MS fixed such a serious issue? how can MS be that dumb to make a console that with a cooling device that doesn't do its job properly..and causes overheating?

[QUOTE="PS3_3DO"]

Didn't the PS2 have a few lawsuits happen because of it's faults?

-Maddog-

PS2 never had such a serious problem...like the 360's overheating issues, its by far the worst hardware built and with such a serious fault...nothing much is being done besides more extented warrantees.

So people still continue and throw out there hard earn cash for something that will most likely fail on them.

Say milkage and whatever you want but Sony had to get a lawsuit before they seriously fixed the problem and addressed it. And the PS2 problem was not a small one. I know guys who were on their third, one guy's third died so he can't even play it anymore.

And you said it still hasn't been fixed. Aren't they implementing the new design now? So did you just buy your 360 or something.

Anywho you should return your dead one cause the warranty is now 3 years. MS made a HUGE mistake and they're owning up to it in aHUGE way by going in the red again. I guess someone learned from Sony's handling of the PS2 problems

Wait, since when did the PS2 suffer overheating and gpu cooling issues? what MS has going on with the 360 is the most worst hardware faults in consoles....Fact.

I'd be left without a console for how long? Halo 3 is coming out in a month and I'm more than willing to risk waiting until I complete the game. That and I just bought some XBL gold, god knows how long it'll be with Microsoft for.

What a damn joke....

The 360 is the worse built console in history....and thats a fact.

I went through 2 my self...didnt bother with another one. Theres No excuse for such a SERIOUS HARDWARE PROBLEM...It isnt just the drive faults..but of MANY fault INCLUDING the most serious be the heating issue. This needs to be fix ASAP...NO more BS and EXTENDED Cr@p.

Scratching disks, overheating, Freezes...you name it, the 360 does it...Geeezus.

-Maddog-

Ummmm...you expected that a warranty would fix the source problem? Hello, hello.

We have known for a long time that until the 65nm units make it into the marketplace the problem won't be solved.

The best we have been able to presume is that the extra heatsink would greatly reduce the number of problems. Which, given the much lower level of volume on the net about 360 problems seems to be the case.

Finally, why do you leap to the conclusion that this one particular console has the same problem as the others after only 20 mins of play? It might. It might not, as the general hardware fault covers many potential issues.

A sample of one does not make me go OMG, WTF teh evil MS, especially when I know that the problem isn't expected to be solved yet (till the 65nm units), just reduced.

It seems to me that getting your panties in a twist over this is huge over reaction...dare I say fanboyish.
