Do I just have bad luck or is the 360 that bad?

I love the 360 but the hardware in it is just horrible. I'm currently on my 4th 360 (the other 3 all got the red lights of death) and this one has the unplayable disc error. I've never had a console ( or any other peice of electronic entertainment hardware for that matter) with as many problems as the 360.

Don't talk to me about bad luck, I've had to send mine back atleast 11 times now. I have managed to get all the games M$ offers as compensation which is a very sh*tty selection. We are talking COD2, PGR2, Kameo, etc...

I have only had it once. Other than that. It's worked fine ever since I got it back two weeks later.

I've never had RROD in the 6 months I've had my 360, but I guess it's really only a matter of time.

Maybe you just have bad luck. I bought my 360 in October of '06, and I just sent it in for repairs 2 months ago, and it works just fine now.

To be honest.. The 360 is just a terrible console.. It's Microsoft for christ sake, come on, Vista came out, what, 'bout a year, full of bugs, yet MS are working on something new, for you to yet again pay £150 for, to replace your rubbish MS system..

Xbox is fun to play, but absaloutley terrible
