I had it once, but I turned off the 360 straight away and left it for a few hours, all was fine after that and it continued working fine up until I sold it, dunno how it's doing now. 4 of my friends have experienced it, and their consoles didn't durvive afterwards, one of them has even had it like 5 times now.

I have experienced the RED RING OF DESPAIR 3 times now.

Then again, I could just be a Sony fanboy making up lies.

I have had one since launch. My brother and 2 of my friends have now had them. It's funny because up untill quite recently i thought people were exaggerating about the problem.

I seriously do not understand or believe that so many people have had 3+ RROD's, I have had my system for about TWO YEARS with not a trace of RROD, I keep it out in the open, never in any sort of cabinet or enclosure, and have the Pelican Fan Stand, it has been perfect, and it gets played alot

I think the 360 has some design issues with the way air flows through the system and the heat sinks, but I do not think the hardware is garbage, it was released a year before the PS3 and nothing on the PS3 has been any better graphically than the 360

That mean you had 1 RROD, one defective 360, and one you lied about

that = 1 RROD

excuse me but i don't think so,my mate at gamestation told me they had the new HDMI 360's (falcon) in, i tol him there was nothing wrong with mine and he said "bring it in tomorrow and i'll change it anyway" so i did. so therefore i did not lie cos the guy at gamestation knew there was nothing wrong with it, next time you accuse people of lying make sure you have proof to back your claim.

Theres a world outside your head. ;)

Reliability does NOT equal graphical advantage. The Xbox 360 is the most unreliable piece of fail to be released since the Dreamcast, it's a complete embarrasement for Microsoft to release something so buggy but that isn't new for them (looks at Vista).

The only saving grace is the video games and in my opinion the controller, otherwise, it's nothing special this gen and the horrible reliability issues sets it back by A LOT.

Until they fix it, I won't be buying another one.

And, their warranty only covers the RROD for three years and god knows that's not the only problems with em'

Never had it in my life, except for that one time I pulled out the cables between the 360 and the television, which rewarded me with a fiery orange burn. I guess I'm one of the lucky ones, as I keep hearing about people who got it three times in a row, while I have had mine since about a month after it's launch with no problems.
