Since most of us in this Xbox forum have at least gone through more than one xbox console, is there anyone here who still has an xbox from launch that is still working perfectly fine? A friend of mine has already gone through three Xboxes and since mine stopped working a couple of months ago, I'll be getting my second. But who here has still got the launch and is running flawless?

This is my 2nd 360(, had it since christmas 2007. My first one died because I was an idiot and kept it on a carpet.

My launch 360 died in April 2006 it was 6 months old. The replacement one died in early 2009 and was out of warranty. I'm now on my third and last 360. If this one blows I won't be getting anther.

Sony aren't exactly saints though. My 60Gb PS3 died after only2 months and I was given a refurbished model as a replacement. So I went from brand new to 2nd hand in 3 months.

I'll definitely look closely at the warranties on any new Microsoft consoles. It's great being an early adopter and all but not when you have the **** taken out of you the way MS did.

My launch is still working. I bought it a month after launch. About 2 years later i went in the military and gave it to a friend to hold onto(bad idea). Then it survived over 6 airplane trips. I just traded it into gamestop about a month ago cause they had a great deal on elite bundles =)

My launch console just died about 2 weeks ago. I'm happy with the time I spent with it. Plus now I have a slim, and it is much better.

I still have my launch 360 though it doesn't work flawlessly. It occasionally doesn't want to read the disc. I am on my 2nd unit now.

I still have mine bought about week after launch it still works and been using it more and more.

Now thinking about getting a new one to have hdmi to go we the hdtv but can't decide which to buy slim or an elite.

The wireless would be helpful for when I need to drag it up stairs to play on the spare tv.

Can't decide where to buy a slim if I go for it Amazon with my Amazon credit card to get the points or Game and trade in my xbox for £40 or what ever it is off the total price...

Not sure Game take it lol the cd drive has jammed a few times be my luck for it to happen.
