Falcons RROD seems like it will end up being 10% or lower, but the board/system needs to be out a good 3 years to gouge if that will remain fact.

Launch units seem to be 30% or higher, and imho will all eventually fail regardless. The good news is if you send in a launch unit for repair, by December you should be getting a OPUS board to replace it which is essentially the same as falcon but without a HDMI port.

So, 3 of 1,155 X360s on their masterthread are RROD'ed X360s. That's 8 months since Falcons have been out, and 3 dead Falcon 360s. That's rather convincing, no?

Falcon 10% = false.

 

 

You do realise a sample size that small isn't very conclusive if not completley useless.

3 Falcons....

I'll say it again... only 3 falcons...

I'll say it even clearer... 3 falcons out of 1,155 suffer from the RROD error.

I'll make it comparitive. If 3 people out of 1,155 suffering from aids wore a condom you would say that condoms don't work?

I'll tell you about statistics, The sample size is probably 10,000+ Xbox 360 owners, so whilst its self selecting the sheer reduction in RROD instances in the Falcon population leads me to believe that the Falcon is suffering the normal rate of failure, comparible to PS3s/Wiis. Even going forward its easy to see that the failure rate in under 5%

 

 

reported in january 2008 = 10% RROD.

Thats called progress. The RROD will be even lower by the time the 360 price drop occurs to enter the larger frugal/casual market.
