Why do people claim the RROD is a thing of the past?

Just look on the 360 forum and you can quite clearly see that the most popular thread (of which there have been many as they fill up so fast) is the "The Broken 360 Discussion and Information Thread Ver. 2".

Every day this thread grows and grows as hundreds of people report their RROD. Anyone that supports this type of machine is either a) crazy or b) unable to afford a ps3

or C) just faking it to tick off fanboys.

RRoD is still a prevalent problem, which will probably take a while to fix, if it even gets fixed at all.

Had mine for 2 years and nothing wrong with it. A better question is why would you care? why bring it up? it has been discussed too many times.Immortal_Evil

You don't have to be poor or crazy to own a 360. I own all consoles. I like games.

That said, the problem still very much exists. I got RROD last weekend :(

the last posts on that thread were months ago, most of the posts have no substance and are just people complaining, and how do we know even half of the posts are by users that factually had a rrod?

I own 2 360's an pro launch that hasn't failed me, and an elite 12 months old that has never failed me, i have both in wide open shevling systems so air flow is at a maximum....so i dont know what to tell you.

We support this console because we're a) Gamers and b) there's more games on the 360 worth playing

dident they fix that, the when you send ur 360 goes into warranty and brakes they fix it permanentlywally2nv

no, there's no such thing as a permanent fix.

Because they dont realize that the real problem with it will show now.

The warranties for many of the boxes are running out, soon people will be majorly owned when their beloved xbox dies. No more free games when repairing the box, only the expensive way out, buying another one..

Wow, that's pretty fast. I've been waiting a week for a UPS guy to come pick it up.

I base my life decisions around the word on an internet forum.Burnsmiesta

Buying the 360 is a life decision?

some people just don't get it. i have only gotten it once.

surely your chances of getting it with a new 360 are lower, but i agree the problem still exists and is substantial.

I don't know, TC, because it most certainly isn't. My 360 Elite gets the RROD every once in a while.majadamus

What do you mean...every once in a while?

I bought a 360 on launch and am now on my 7th one due to rrod. Well this last time that my 360 died i called Microsoft to find out that my warranty was expired. After they looked up my account the phone rep apologized to me and said that they would still fix my system,and they slapped on another 3-year warranty on it for free. I still think that the system (not the games) is a major POS...but Microsoft took care of the problem and that's all that matters.

Sometimes I turn on the 360 and the Red Rings of Death are there. When I turn it back on to play again it'll be back to normal. Maybe I should keep my 360 away from the hands of certain others.

I don't get why people like you always try to make people worry about RROD. People that bought a 360 most likely knew the consequences, but bought it anyways because of the 3 year warranty.

Plus that's where the games are.
