I got 2 at launch (one for me, one for the kids) and an Elite when it came out. Ive never had a single problem with any of them, ever. And theyre setup like this.......
My 360 has never had any problems.
I just sit it there not standing up with a Intercooler fan.
Worked perfect for about a year.
Mine works fine and has since launch but there are problems with the console. If I were anyone getting a new one I would for sure get the warrenty with it even though I say it should come with a 1 year warranty at least, nintendo and sony has got longer warrenty for their consoles.barnthepirate
What..... the xbox 360 comes with a 1yr warranty standard...plus they also have 3 yrs from date of youbought it for 3 red lights.
I got mine a few months after launch and I've yet to have any problems with it. Lord_Daemon
dittttoooo
I've had mine since launch, no problems
Mine is horizontal on a large wire cabinet divider so that it is well ventilated
My 360 is 1 year old and no problems till now!!!
I keep hanging its position so that wont count !!!
and i dont really know some one whose 360 broke!!!(but i only know about 10 360 users personally!!!)
Had it since launch, and it works fine now. Though, mine has gotten so hot that games's framerate has gotten lower than its supposed to be. In games like pdz where the framerate probably isn't 30 already, it makes the game completely unplayable.
*Oh, and its horizontal on a really tall speaker. Its also about 2 feet away from any wall at that. Exactly why most peoples 360s bust, is because they are somewhat enclosed even if you don't think so. And I won't play it for more than 10 hours at a time just from me being scared it'll give me the 3 lights of death*
Had mine since feb 2006. No problems at all. Stored horisontally in a open cabinet under my tv. It has some room to breathe but not very much. Guess I got lucky. Strange thing is none of my who has had their 360's just as long as me has had any problems either. But then again I rarely play more than a few hours at a time.
Mine works fine I had the rings of death once and I didnt have my cooling fan plugged in so i plgged it in and it was fine so get one! Mine is horizontal with the cooling fan and in my cool basement so i dont have to worry about any problems!
I'v had mine since nov 2006 and have had no major problems.
Its standing up vertical in an open vented area (although it is sucking up my alread "warm air" from all the electronics turned on inmy roomto "cool" itoff)
My advice is to not play any longer than 5 hours at a time (you shouldn't be anyway), keep it in a good vetilated area, run the AC more often if possible (don't worry about the electric bill in the summer, your xbox360 will keep you warm all winter). Treat it good and it should keep you warm for many winters to come.
