So you mean the new Xbox 360 have no more RROD ( completely ) ?

Pretty much. I have to keep repeating myself because people are in denial or rampant fanboys are trying to spin the subject (but failing ever more so).

 

On a newer model, you're not going to RROD if you keep your system in a ventilated area like a system should be in. If you're a dimwit (not you, but in general) who likes to keep in on the floor somewhere near all your cables where it's very dusty etc, the that's your fault. My friend did that, and it took him a year and a half to RROD on a LAUNCH console (the bad consoles). I've had a launch console on the table in the middle of my room, and it has never had a problem.

On top of almost non-existant RROD, installing games on our HDD prevents hot air from being emited by the 360, it's as if it's not even turned on. The disk doesn't even spin, so if you have an old model with disk problems, that saves your ass, too! And let me ask you this; if no hot air is being released from the 360 (me and a roommate played for more that 12 hours a few days ago, all these new releases can do that for you on a shitty day, and the 360 was still quiet and cold as if it wasn't even on) then how will it RROD? RROD is caused by the hot air, 360's fan isn't as big as the PS3's internal fan.

You guys have nothing to worry about. In a month or two, when this becomes mainstream and people let it sink in, I'm going to look back and laugh..

:P
