Im waiting for MS to send me a box!

And i was just at GameStop today trading in GH2 with controller for store credit, when some guy walks in with his 360 in his hands asking the employee for a refund or to be replaced... The 360 was still within the store's 30 day warantee, and it ALREADY got the ring of death!

Yeah MS and the 360 are the best.

I love them.

They always take care of their customers.

Best customer service out of everyone.

Given the play time most people are going to log in the first week, I would say MS is going to waaaaaay backed up repairing consoles. The cooler weather in September may help keep the problem from getting too huge tho, so start hoping for an early start to fall weather.

I know, they are the exact reason why I came to this board over and over. Now that they have been banned. This board is just, well, boring. Lot's of pathetic rants and half baked arguments. Fanboys miss out on alot of great games. It is a shame really. Who cares who wins in sales!! As long as the games on each system keep coming out. Who cares about 3 rings!!! At least MS stepped up and slapped a3 year warranty. That is more than I can say for my poor, barely 1 yearold at the time PS2 that had DRE, and I had to pay $140 to those clowns to fix it( it finally broke again two years later, but I had GC,Xbox, and PC so I did not bother, borrowed friends for GOW2). This thread fails like most do now.

They're almost surely releasing the Falcon before Halo 3.

Tehere is no proof that prolonged play, or any game in particular actually crashes the system and gives it the Red Rings of Death or whatever it's called. This hardware problem will likely happen in a few cases to unlucky people and hey it may even happen while playing Halo 3. Of course, it may not even as well.

Maybe to those people who have the misfortune of having a defective console, but my 360 will not suffer from a few hours of Halo 3 everyday.

I'm sure they will as well but that won't really be of any help to the people who bought one of the 11.6 million already out there
