Forums - Gaming Discussion - xbox 360 is the worst console ever made!!!

I find it hard to believe that you would throw away your xbox. I will give you the benefit of the doubt that this is an honest post. It seems like the smart thing to do would be to have the 360 fixed under warranty and then sell the console plus games on the secondary market.

Interesting..... you dont even have a 360 do you... and you do already have a PS3 (you have said as much in other posts previously)...

you should be banned for a clearly bogus post.

get a life.

 

I  used to have a xbox 360 but because it gave me so many problems i switched to a ps3, it clearly statest that in the thread. you should read it more carefully and use common sense before you say something silly, and i have a nice life thank you  i think its best you had a look at your own life, maybe get more educated!!



Wow, this is just some bad trolling.

Locked.

I am a "never buy the extended warranty" kind of guy, but I bought it for my 360 for Christmas 2006 based on the initial reports of hardware failures. So here I am a little over a year later, and the console is dead with the red ring of death. Thank goodness for buying the extended warranty, I will be attempting to return it and get a PS3. Failing that, the extended MS warranty for this hardware failure should cover me. However, will I buy another Microsoft gaming console? Nope, never again.

My 360 is freestanding vertically, with plenty of air circulation and it still croaked after 12 months of light use. That's pretty pathetic hardware design.

So, are you feeling lucky? Did MS really do enough to improve the heat dissipation and fix any solder composition issues? I wouldn't take a chance with my money.

3/28/08 update - Replacement unit from microsoft dead after 5 days and maybe 2 hours of use. Pathetic. My motto has now become "anything but microsoft".

This without doubt the worst console known to mankind, anyone thinking of buying don't you will be throwing you're money away. Im not a fanboy but im pissed of my xbox 360 broke 4 times, and i had to throw it away because i could not be bothered with all the hassle, and now im stuck with $350 worth of games, fuck you bill gates you best hope i don't catch you on the streets I will kill you!!! I would never recomend this rubbish hardware anyone looking for a grill i would recomend the xbox 360, the rrod is just unbelievable that they are still selling faulty console.

 Guess what?  You had the exact same issue as this guy on Amazon  link->  http://www.amazon.com/review/R2AB5G8Q0R4YR3

It's amazing how this Internet thing works.

Why would you post this as your own? 

 



Thanks for the input, Jeff.

 

 

Yeah, can't argue too much. I do believe it has the most unreliable hardware of any console to date, even worse than the PS2. But I'm so damn addicted to the games......

I'll just get it repaired for free or replaced as I have so far. They'll get it right eventually here. I just don't get super pissed about going a few days without a gaming system like most people here seem to.

obviously some one never owned a atari 2600... now there was a hunk of junk (luckily I was not the one in the family to own one)

Also OP fails because:
1) You get covered for RROD till christmas 2009.

2) You obviously own a PS3 or are a PS3 fanboy, because you love the only good exclusive that came out for the thing in 07 (avatar says a thousand words)

3) When your PS3 breaks, you'll have to pay for it to be repaired, your RROD is paid in full by MS including postage

4) If you were stupid enough to pay for RROD repair, you should be charged the repair costs.

5) Enjoy Linux when your Macbook breaks and you say "anything but apple"

6) Obviously your console didn't break 4 times or else we'd get an update for each

7) You thought you'd get sympathy on a forum full of people you don't know who are obviously smart enough to realise you're full of it.
