Shadowblind said: I'm not gonna sell my Wii, the new Tales will make sure of that. I also love Zelda games. My 360 would be the only console I'd sell right now(besides maybe my PSP) But your right about Tales; I still am(well, was) trying to earn enough Grade in Vesperia for a second go through. I'll wait, for now. I've been tipping toward a PS3 for a while now. @stickball-Its like the 360s were built this way. To die right the hell in the middle of the holiday season.

360's die from too much use, causing excess heat to separate the GPU from the mobo. The reason it may clump around the holidays is the over-use of the device, causing higher than normal amounts of heat via gameplay. That's why it *looks* like it's worse around these times of year.
In my previous RRoD case, it was in March - a non-peak time, but I was running the X360 into the ground since a friend was living at my house, and we played tons of multiplayer.
I trash my X360s. I pack it up very often (and rather haphazardly) into a small box, about 1 time a week (every week) to take to my finacee's, or a church event. What's more shocking is that my power brick hasn't crapped out yet - There are tons of exposed wires protruding from the rubber-end of the device (where the light is).
Back from the dead, I'm afraid.
