Geez! That is a lot of Bad Luck! My old one packed in the once, got those three darn lights, sent it back and got a new one,it was great! Theres not much I can really say buddy but; good luck with the new 360.. Whatever happened to your 360's isn't natural :? (Spooky horry music)

Im on my fourth one. Ive had one stolen which in my opinion is WAAAAYYYYY worse than the damn three red lights. And Ive had 2 get the red ring of death. But I still love the good ol' 360. And HOORAY for the EBGames/Gamestop warranty. Sure its $50, but I know if something happens to my 360 I can have a new one in 20 minutes. I'd rather pay for convenience, than have to wait a month for a new one. Im not patient. :P ;)

I'm on my fourth one also, I just don't want to have to send it away and not have it for a while :cry:, but I am counting on having to do it, just so it doesn't come as a surprise

Thats happened to me before, my lights went out really quick and came back on. Nothing should be wrong with your 360, I guess it just turned back on that way when the power came back on...

I doubt that is coincidence that they have messed up that much for you. I am not trying to offend you; however, it is likely that it is something you are doing that is making your consoles die. Usually the problem is playing in a room that is too hot or not letting your 360 breathe in the open. A lot of people cram their 360s in little entertainment centers to make it look cool, while doing so their console burns up.

If you are positive your following all guidelines then I must say that I'm sorry about your luck and hope your 360 experience starts to improve.
