youd be covered for 3 years yes. RROD only though...

I had the disk drive crap out a year and half in to my ownership...70 bucks MS said. Luckily i sold it for 150 on ebay and bought a new one which is strong like bull.

Did you have the Ben-Q disk drive or the Hitachi drive?

The Ben-Q drive lasts longer and is more quieter than the Samsung and Hitachi drives combined.

Also I know this is off-topic but did you like Alone in the Dark? I remember you made a thread saying this game was okay, and you fought around the glitches and things.

It was samsung. Gen 1 xbox. Drive died in August 2007. It was a fizable problem, but I had to open it up and mess with some plastic piece. Or replace the drive which was 60 bucks at a local store or 75 with microsoft. MS had the price cut at that time so I jsut got another one.

 

Alone in the Dark was quite playable and enjoyable for me. Sure the car driving had bad controls...but that made it fun and challenging. that is until the very end where they want you to run around central park killing plants... I gave up there.

I stil dont regret purchasing it(and trading it after) as it was an enjoyable experience.
