Is there a probable percentage? I hear of people all the time "OMG RROD"

I've had mine since 2006 and no red rings!

Do all of them get them eventually?

All I know is its much less of an issue now that what it was. I've had it 4 times, but the last one was mid last year and they gave me a newly manufactured console after that 4th hardware failure & no problems since.

I got it once so far.

It was after I'd had my 360 for just over a year.

I got a replacement from MS and it's been fine ever since.

As do I, paid only $100 for my console after a discount when I bought my HDTV & haven't had to pay a penny more for repairs. But it does suck having to wait for it to come back, but luckly I hooked up with a gal whom had a core console so I just slapped my HD in it while mine was gone. Sad thing is mine went out 4 times & we haven't had any problems at all with the other one.

The only reason I got it once was something wasn't plugged in right. I almost sent it away.

The first 360 I had didn't get the RROD, it had the disc scratching problem instead. But the one I have now is perfect, no probs yet.

This is a very generic or grouping type of question.

only a stereotyping response would say yes.

although there may be somewhat of an inherint fault with the 360 consoles. this does not mean that every unit will develop the faults.

No of course they don't all get RROD

You should also be aware that RROD is not one single problem - it indicates general hardware failure, and as such could be several different things

Well, not ALL of them, but i have heard that percentages like 23.4 to 50.3, and honestly, those are just the reported ones. I think all of them COULD get it. Some people probably don't play enough for it to rrod. The new ones are supposed not to rrod or e74, but there are thousands of videos of it getting errors. Anyway, if you play it rarely, it could last years, if you play it often for marathons, it will probably break within a few months. If you want reliability, get a ps3, if you want the xbox, if yours gets the rrod, wait for a while and see if the same problems hit the horrible console failure rates of the original xbox. If they don't, or you have a magic xbox, good for you. I think I'm gonna go buy a ps3 until the slim gets some reviews.
