Long story short, my 360 always been a little iffy and today it couldn't really stand it anymore. It won't turn on, and the disc opener is jammed.
Can someone please tell me are the newer models more dependable?

Ahh, okay. Pardon my ignorance but my head is in a hole when it comes to PC gaming. I have no Idea what any of those games are. I am interested in learning pc gaming...because Im sure they have good games. Like I stated, most of my lack of playing or building a gaming pc comes from Ignorance about it. Plus Im totally satisfied with my consoles that I have now.

Wow, how did you ever do it and then get keyboard support for it?Whoa.....that was tight. Hellgate London looked the best. Sheesh, I guess I can hook up the laptop Im getting so I can at least fool around with it while Im at work instead of posting in threads all workday.

from what i heard they are not any more dependable than they were a year ago. send your 360 to microsoft or buy a ps3.Panther501i agree. and whats the deal, i swear that failure rate is over 33% seems like EVERYONE eventually experiences this. i have to yell at my brother all the time because he never takes me serious when i tell him he needs to be extra cautious with his 360

The disc tray jammed on my 360. I couldn't claim it back through the warranty, however this was partially resulting from the fact I'd tried to open it with a bread knife after a couple of beers one night and the whole door came out of the machine, shortly followed by a couple of broken cogs.
Ah well.

Yeah, I'm afraid that it might be more than 33% of the earlier models, it just takes more time for some to develop it than others. If they accessed how many got RROD from the first few models, I wonder what the percentage would be. Mines an older model (the one w/out HDMI):cry:

I'm pretty sure the failure rate is 66% yeah and the only reason it stays at a certain percentage is because they keep selling new ones. if my little brother's 360 breaks he said he'd get it fixed and then sell it on ebay to buy a ps3.
Why post this in SW?..... Oh I get it..sorry lolLong story short, my 360 always been a little iffy and today it couldn't really stand it anymore. It won't turn on, and the disc opener is jammed.

My 360 has failed on my 3 times and you do have to be careful...but after the 3rd time I got a PS3 and no problems. IMO...if your playing a alot....often, the disc drive will fail. Period. One of my friends joked about my 360 breaking, but I told him..."yours just doesnt break because you dont play it enuff"...he laughed. Then he purchased Fallout 3, Fable 2, COD WAW, AND Mirrors Edge....he was on around the clock. Then he hit me with a message telling me "aww man, my 360 went dead". I hit him with the "told you so". Just ease the work load, get a wii or something. The 360 is just NOT a work horse type console. Trust me.
