Ok, on behalf of MS (I'm not really a Microsoft rep), I want to admit that the 360 is more prone to failure than it should be. I've admitted it for everyone so the whole internet can move on. I'm tired of hearing about it.
That said, buy a new one, buy the extended warranty, and play some damn good games.
Forza isnt' bricking systems any more than any other game. The 360 has a higher than normal failure rate and if a box is going to fail, it is going to fail more often on the games people are playing *right now* simply because that is the CD that happened to be in the system when it went. The software isn't doing it -- it's just timing. When Halo 3 comes out, it will "brick" systems because system failures will be on the game most being played. Think about it. Use your brain. Move on.
I hate trolls.
Systems I currently own: 360, PS3, Wii, DS Lite (2)
Systems I've owned: PS2, PS1, Dreamcast, Saturn, 3DO, Genesis, Gamecube, N64, SNES, NES, GBA, GB, C64, Amiga, Atari 2600 and 5200, Sega Game Gear, Vectrex, Intellivision, Pong. Yes, Pong.
