Forums - Microsoft Discussion - How can i defend a 360 when this happens.. (Lots of cursing)

Red Ring of Death, paying for goldmembership, HD player died, over 1 million banned from live in 1 day for modded xbox's, freezes randomly, horrible d-pad(its a freakin joystick button) bigass power adapter that you can kill someone with, older headsets not being able to work on newer peripherals, not wireless unless you pay $99 for it, doesn't have an internet browser when all the other consoles do.

yes what an amazing machine, halo and gears is soooo awesome

It kind of comes with the territory of having a 360. I went on a 6 hour MW2 binge today, took a break for dinner, and then played it for another 2 1/2 hours after that, and I am worried to death that I'm going to RRoD the next time I turn it back on.

Its not politically correct to bash the console while being in the forum related to it. If you hate the console then you can go on the other forums to talk about it. If not it means that you just want to provoke people that actually like it and start a war.

I don't think its hate, its the truth, the console is the worst console ever made. Its the least reliable console ever, everything on it is garbage, I still love the features of it,e xbox live is awesome and well the games arexcellent. Love the controller also. I just wish it was as reliable as my PS3 or a Wii and use blutooth like my PS3 or change the HDD without having to buy a microsoft hdd and using those terrible headsets.

Here's the good about the 360:

- Games are excellent, especially Gears.

- Xbox live.

- Love the controller.

 

Here's the good about the PS3:

- Great games

- superb features, like blutooth, wireless internet integrated

- can change the HDD without having to pay extra to Sony

- I just love my small headset that doesn't weight anything and PSN is getting better and better.

- Bluray

- reliable

- Price for the slim is the same as the elite and don't have to buy all the extra stuff.

 

In my opinion, the PS3 is a much better value than the 360, still I have more fun on my 360 than the PS3 when I can play on it....



My favorite games for this gen:

1. Gears of War    2. MGS4    3. Killzone 2   4. Halo 3(Underated by many)      5. Mass Effect

...i think you were pro-360 about a month or two ago.  you seem pretty upset at your 360 as of late. 



@Kitler53

 

Im still pro 360, iv been going through its bullshit tho.



My 360 is the very first version released to the market and its still working no problems, even after all these years. Guess I'm lucky...



3 problems in less than a year?
wtf you do with it? , play catch with your cousin?

Heck, and nobody connects the PS2/Xbox/PS1/X360 failure rates and the sales numbers ? Of course we don't have numbers, apart recent polls confirming a very high failure rate for the 360.

Cmon, I have a SNES, a GC, a N64, a Wii, a DS and a GBA, I bought only one of each of them, and never had any problem, I've travelled a lot with my hardware in my bag. But these are made of nintendium, non ninty platform can't compete.


The first VCR I bought as a college kid was an el cheapo 2-head mono orion VCR back in 1992 which I still have.  Since then, I bought a Sharp and a SONY, both 4-head Hi-fi VCR's that were not as good as the original Orion before moving on to DVD's.  There's something going down here.  But Nintendo has been the only one consistance here in hardware console quality.  Truth.



Hackers are poor nerds who don't wash.
