Forums - Gaming Discussion - Gates: 360 To Be the Most REALIABLE Console Available!!!!!

It is ok Bill we all know your a liar. I am suprised his eyes are not brown from all the bullstuff he says. He of course stands behind vista because he has to. He admits that for a fact. I like him for that because he openly admits he is a strong supporter of failure. The only thing microsoft has going good for it now is its games division, but if I ever get a RROD on my 360 then it is over.

No one can read anymore it seems.

Essentially he's saying "Our new stuff is much more reliable, and we're committed to making our products become the most reliable choices."

There are too many trolls in this thread just looking for an excuse to bash MS.


Exactly the problem -- their stuff doesn't appear any more reliable than it has been since launch. MS has said a lot of times before that they "fixed" the 360 reliability problem and yet it is clear that they haven't.


How is it "clear" that MS hasn't fixed the 360 reliability problem? All I see posted is anecdotal evidence. I'll believe this when someone actually makes a sound argument with facts, not assumptions.

Well we certainly had to apologize to our uses about a number of box that had to be replaced. We did that for free for all of those people, we've gotten a lot of positive feedback about the way we handled it. We've got incredible reliability on the new work we've done. Our commitment is that it will be the most reliable video game box out there.

Exactly. Based on this thread, a good portion of the people on this site should shut off their computer and pick up a book instead.

Reading comprehension FTL.

Bill Gates is probably saying that statement in reference to the soon-to-be released Jasper Xbox 360 consoles.

The Jasper console will have a 65nm CPU and a 65nm GPU (main reasons for RRoD were the 90nm GPU).

So its true in a way, but if he is talking about the past and now. He must be smoking that stuff..lol

It's completely anecdotal but I have heard of exactly one person getting RRoD with a post-August Xbox, and that was a guy who had an early Halo console, which were known to still have the old mobos and 90nm chips.

If someone has evidence otherwise, I would love to see it.

He doesn't say it is now he says, 'it will be'

Like any company saying they intend to be the best etc etc blah blah blah

Calm down people. What he is saying is that they are committed to make it the most reliable console, not that he thinks that it is. He is just stating that reliability is now top on their list of improvements.Nothing to flame here.


It is the first console ever had so many problems........& most people it can't be most reliable either, because it is Microsoft. LOL


Wow ... are our memories so short that we have forgotten Sony's disk-read errors? Sony denied that for years ... and I know they did, because I had one repaired by them! My Xbox has crashed literally 2 to 3 times.

Repairs cost, and MS would rather pay for the technology to slow that from happening than keep paying for repairs and losing tons of credibility.


  1. few game disc read error VS Game Console completely DEAD
  2. a series of problems http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xbox_360_technical_problems + Xbox live issues now
  3. highest failure rate 33% in the history

Few game disk read errors? The Sony PS2 had so many, I had to send it in - on my dime! When I got my RROD, it wasn't the hardware so much as my son running past some cables and yanking it. And MS shipped me a box to send it back in.

And based on your comments, do you have any hands-on time with a 360, or is all just something you read online? And truthfully, I admire the way you have gleaned one thought into 3 excuses for the 360 problems. Wow ... you should consider a career in Public Relations!


Face it. You still don't want to admit Xbox 360 has so many issues, most of them are too serious that Microsoft can't just avoid it like Sony's one and need billions to cover it, completely DEAD, you know, even the Public Media like reporter & editor had to face this issue. I have a Xbox 360 myself, it got disc read error either(maybe different from sony's one), and it crashed with white screen while playing. So how about the scratched discs & the RROD I had on my Xbox 360, maybe you are the luckiest one, do you know how hard and how long it takes for me to replace a new one? Everyone knows that it is just damn slow for microsoft for replacing/repairing for a new one. How about the Xbox Live error that everyone's having recently, don't tell me it was a prank news or jokes?

The most important stuff that you should know, repairing doesn't mean the issues never happened. The problems will stay in the history whatever Microsoft did.

Even after the repair, the problems never tend to stop. What is the point of repairing, maybe it is Microsoft's strategy for buying another console. RRoD once, twice, third, forth and even more than that. We still can heard the story everyday, 33% is just too high even for a failling rate, if you consider the multiple times repairing, it should be higher.

Wake up, you really sound like a Microsoft PR, maybe you are, aren't you?



Poor PS3 Sales Means Smaller Losses

"Actually, because the number of units sold was not as high as we hoped, the loss was better than our original expectation," Quotes from Sony’s CFO Nobuyuki Oneda.
