Well, i truly thought i was one of the lucky ones. Ive owned my 360 since 2006 and thought i was fortunate enough to have avoided the red rings of shoddy hardware but alas i was wrong. It passed away on Fri 19th Feb, 2010 at approximately 8:30AM GMT. The thing that has annoyed me is that i hardly play on the bloody thing. Its in a well ventilated area and i rarely play for more than an hour at a time.
Im not too bothered. Technically its extremely outdated, my old 8800gtx used to make mincemeat of it, my gtx 295 just laughs at it.
Anyway, im done with 360s now. Im going to try and get it repaired, even though its out of warranty, and then im selling it and my 30+ games. Just debating whether to go for a ps3 or an i7. Decisions, decisions!
So nothing left to say but RIP in peace xbox 360 (2006-2010).
Gone too soon...
