You say you eat through "faulty" logic, but your take on this is ignorant to say the least. There are sooooo many forums/posts of ppl going through multiple systems cause guess what?......it happens!! I had 3 disc drives burn out, one system that wouldnt read discs the day i got it back from microsoft, and (i swear im not making this one up) one system that RRoD overnight while it wasnt even on. Got up one morning and controller was unsynched and system RRoD on startup. Its awesome that RRoD hasnt happened to you, you really are lucky. BUt dont discredit other ppls testimonies just because you havent seen it happen. |
Well, I have never questioned a poster with an objective history who has reported an instance of a RROD.
But it seems peculiar when a poster with an obvious bias reports multiple failures. It's just logic. I think any rational person would understand this.
I am sorry if this scares you, but your comment was appreciated.
Thanx.

Ummmm, scares me in what way exactly? Oh and btw its not logical or rational to believe that there is some big conspiracy that ppl make up RRoD situations just to badmouth microsoft.
And think about it, if the OP was trying to discredit the 360, why would he be so nice about it in his post?
There is nothing in his post that even suggests that he has an alternate agenda.
I think your higher education has made you a bit paranoid......

Right, because these kind of underhanded manipulative tactics never ever occur in the perfect world of big business, marketing or even government?
There is zero curruption. And of course big companies never pay people to portray themselves as seemingly everyday normal people over the internet to influence others in a way that benefits the company and discredits the competition?
Nope, never happens. I guess videogame software makers do not pay cash to publications to skew reviews either? Nope, everything is just perfect!
Big businesses and Lobbyist do not try to sway government officials! Because we live in perfect land!
You are right! I guess all of my classes on marketing and business ethics were completely useless! And it's made me a paranoid lunatic!!
Thank you for such an insightful and educated post. You are going places.

Hell if sony paid me i would do it!!!! but on VG chartz???? lol sony would have wasted money there are bigger sites to do it on lol. and i didnt trash M$ at all.... this RROD or disk drive crash is a fact and its out there.

I never said it did not exist. But anyone could see why a competitor would want to exagerrate the circumstances.
For instance, when the PS3 was not performing as well, I'm sure Microsoft and Nintendo were basking in the widespread premature mass speculation of the Playstation brand demise. Had it not been for the RROD fiasco, I wonder all of the things Microsoft and the 360 could have accomplished more quickly
And bigger than VGChartz? Correct me if I am wrong, but as of late, VGChartz has been getting lots of attention in the media as of late. In fact, it has been referenced in numerous publications.
VGCHartz is practically a gold mine and I am sure big companies are paying attention.
