well my xbox 360 broke FOR NO FING REASON!!!! i was playing guitar hero 2 for about 30 min and it wouldnt save anything. I restart the console and i get 3 red lights. Then i get system failures. My 360 is 5 months old and i didn;t play it for 4 months cuz i got bored of it. It destroyed my Oblivion disk which i somehow returned. I might not even buy halo 3 if things like this happen.

My friend recently purchased a 360,and he's already complaining about strange system noises lol....MS have to release a much more reliable console in the future.

it gets noisy but that dosent mean its gonna fail....

He says(seriously)that his 360 sounds like it's going to explode. I dont have a 360,so I wouldnt know,but if anything sounds like it's about to erupt this isnt a good sign.

[QUOTE="Doom_HellKnight"]Wrap it in a couple of towels.STABW0UND

yeah leave it on and wrap it in 2-4 towels leave it running for 20-30 mins like the turn it off for awhile and turn it back on and it will work anywhere from a few hours to a few months, what it does is temperaroly re soders it

one of my boys on XBL did that and testified that it worked for him too. bizzare.

 

yeah i havent heard anyone say it didnt work. 

are you guys serious or being sarcastic ?

Damn man, I'm sorry to hear that.  Mine is only a month old and I'm scared to death of the three red lights.  I didnt get the extended warranty on my 360.  (should have)  But I have also heard of people who have had thiers since launch with no problems.

they live in fridges

1.  If you dont want your disks to get scratched or brocken, dont move the console while its goin, Its tells you in the darn manual.

2.  Keep your machine in a well ventalated place.  I do and it only just gets warm, even if I play it all day.

The reason the towel trick works is because the lack of ventilation causes the 360 to heat up enough to warm the poorly soldered joints on the mainboard, specifically on the GPU chip which has a lack of solder. This newly heated solder melts and falls into the correct spots on the circuit board. Once you turn off the 360 and allow it to cool, remove the towel and try it again the newly melted solder has solidified and your 360 is bound to work well again.

Yeah well u aint the only one. Check out 3 guys in the same house hold, they all own an xbox 360 and guess what, all three of them had there xbox 360 break down on them. Click on the link to see for yourself.

I own an xbox 360 and havent had this happen to me yet but if it does, that will be the last time I buy an xbox 360, lets just hope my xbox 360 can hold me off until mass effect, lost odyssey and halo 3 come out. Then after I have played all of them it can crap out on me.

Blog - Short for Web log, a blog is a Web page that serves as a publicly accessible personal journal for an individual. Typically updated daily, blogs often reflect the personality of the author.

....Hint, hint.

k?

 

Let it cool off.

 

Something may not be connected all the way.

 

I got red lights because my HDD wasn't in all the way, clicked it in and TA-DA!

 

I'm sure it's fine.

 

But honestly, I don't think anyone here really cares.

 

Now that I think about it, neither do I.

 

I'm gunna go back to playing my 2 working 360's :]

Something not plugged in all the way is 4 red lights, not 3.... Plus mine broke a few days ago, I let it cool off, played again and it worked fine for about 1 hour then bam! freezes up and now its only 3 red lights.
