dead xbox...
well, it happened... to make it worse, i was literally waiting to go out and buy cod4. now i have to miss the release of gta4, the happy tree friends game, and knowing my luck, the mail-order demo disk it comes with will arrive on monday. the xbox was under warranty so i sent it back, but i have a question: will they do anything about my xbox live? my friend had his gone for 3 months. that's $20 down the drain if i don't get it paused or something...

There's a Happy Tree Friend's GAME!?!
OMGWTFBBQ I WANT IT! Over excitement... Well, time to go read aobut it on Wikipedia and then never play it. Anyway, if you contact the Xbox Live...contact...people...they might be able to pause it until you get it back.

...I never understood this, people know what the problem is heat, and overuse. Why wouldnt you buy an intercooler, if you did, then why would you play for so long striaght or perhaps shove your box into that close space inside your cabinet.
I have had 7 Xbox 360's over the period they were released, i currently own two for no reason...and have yet to have a problem with any of them. Whats wrong here: -I dont shove mine into a cabinet, where it can get hot. or i take it out when i want to play with it. -ill take a break every so often to let it cool down -I always have an intercooler attached - i make sure its upright and the vents arn't blocked -and the one time i was doing the two hour blitz, with my friend on the original halo on ledgendary, i put an extra "pit fan", the ones they uswe to cool down air compressors on constreuction sites to keep my box cool. There is no reason microsoft should be blamed, they cre losing so much money because of this, but mostly its just stupid people, i agree some are messed up from the factory but others are perfectly fine until people abuse them. Their delicate machinery, not a hand grenade. I have microsoft shares and am personally losing money do to this xbox fault... |

Here's a solution for you, don't buy an Xbox 360. Get a PS3 .
Why would you say Microsoft isn't to blame? The first year they had a staggering 30ish% failure rate. And do you know why? Because Microsoft didn't do proper testing on the consoles, rushed it out to the market, and provided a sub-par performing machine. I understand that they can get abused and Microsoft isn't to blame for those, but the bulk of the problems are due to Microsoft quality control issues. They have improved their failure rate down to around 16%, but in my opinion that is still to high. For your shares, it also doesn't help that Microsoft lost the Blu-ray/HD war with Sony, that was a huge blow for them.

meme- i do exactly what you said, and i never play for more than 45 minutes straight. my breaks last from 1-12 hours. so i do blame microsoft. now i have two dead xboxes in my room, and one of them will never work again. i want to sell it for parts, maybe get 5 bucks... at any rate it's not my fault at all.

PS3 sucks go get a life, sony F**cked me over on a 52" plasma TV and i will never ever forgive that company.
If i had a gun with two bullets and was in a room with howard stringer (sony's CEO), George W. bush, and a rabid wolf. I would shoot howard stringer, twice.... thats all im saying. Its just to bad i cant avoid sony movies, and still own a library full of bluerays, and two blueray players. I knwo im a terrible hyppocrite that loves my technology... |

That's a real quality company there. And that's all I have to say about this because I have no intention of starting or carrying on a console war. Cheers, M_W
