My 360 just got the red rings of death. I mean #$%^ a day before Halo 3. I just botted it up and loaded CoD 4 Beta and it froze while loading the map so I rebooted and then the rings hit. Ive told microsoft and I got the email with packaging instructions. But $%^& when do you think I will get it back?

Don't want to ruin your day, but I got the red rings of death in early August and just got my 360 back last Tuesday.

Bad timing. Perhaps you can buy a used core if you already have a memory unit as a backup? That would be for desperate measures only of course.

Here is where microsoft couldnt compare to nintendo and sony, they dont know how to make a reliable console. The 360 is the only console I've ever heard of doing so many messed up things. Rings of death and over-heating. I would just wait for them to fix it, seriously halo 3 can wait, step back and take a breath, microsofts advirtising blitz has effected you into believing if you dont own this game your missing out on something amazing. its a game, think rationally. Unless your loaded with money then buy a new system, elites are pretty ;)

When my first Xbox 360 crapped out like a year ago, I called in, got the box, shipped it out and got it back within 2.5 weeks.
