Forums - Microsoft - I have an honest question for anyone who has got RROD

1. 1
2. No, it was a free fix, and took 3. I don't have any brand loyalty, I pretty much just buy whichever consoles justify their price to me. If the nextBox does that then I will pick it up.



Currently Playing:  Saints Row 2 | Battlefield 2 | Company of Heroes

Recently Beaten: Gears of War | Super Mario Galaxy | Darwinia | MGS4 | Sam and Max Ep. 4, Portal | Mirror's Edge | Uncharted | Mass Effect

Looking Forward to: Alan Wake | Splinter Cell : Conviction | The Last Guardian | Batman: Arkham Asylum | SMG2 | Mass Effect 2 |

Want to clarify one answer will I get the next MS machine, I said yes I meant yes I will look into the next MS machine the RROD did not scare me away. I will look at all the next gen machines and determine which suits my needs best.

If the 720 is Backward compat with the 360 that would be a HUGE incentive for me to pick up the next Xbox if not all bets are off. The reason the 360 sits under my sony tv is cause sony took out BC from there box I have 80 PS2 games so when it came to picking the new console I never had an xbox and the PS3 had no BC so it was wide open. Glad I went with the 360 have been happy with it but we will see what happens next gen



PS3, WII and 360 all great systems depends on what type of console player you are.

Currently playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2, Fallout 3, Halo ODST and Dragon Age Origins is next game

What's an honest question as opposed to a regular question?

No RROD here.



1, once
2, No, its still here, but still broken
3, No "2" sits there as a reminder to not buy MS.



Well i got a friend he got the rrod twice, he left it in got it back, left it in got it back. Managed to trade his xbox Elite for a ps3 40 GB. He doesnt regret his choice and neither do i! Yay more people to play with XD

1. How many times have u gotten RROD?

0 time ( but i get a disk failure instead ) 

2. Did u get rid of your 360 cause of RROD and if so what system did u buy to replace it?

if its the best console for games now why should i get rid of it ? because of RROD !? no i go and fix it .. its have 3 years warranty.

3. If you did get RROD do u plan on getting the next xbox?

if Halo & Gears of War continue exclusively on xbox then .... yes

 



I just got my second RROD, on my Elite, annoyingly enough. Bit of a mixup with UPS means it's still sitting in the box waiting to go. Because I've always had 2 360s in the house, and my sister got a 360 recently, I don't miss out on anything. I've got too many games to just stop playing on 360, the same reason that I accepted the numerous times my PC crashed, or froze up, or glitched. The same reason I accepted my PS2 falling to pieces, my other PS2 needing several repairs, etc.

I do hate when technology doesn't work, but my need to play the games is stronger than my annoyance. :D



Will you teach me to football?

1. I've gotten the Red Ring of Death twice now (but on the same console).
2. I replaced it with another 360. I already own a PS3 and a Wii.
3. That depends. Considering I bought every console this generation I wouldn't be surprised if I did the same thing next generation. I don' think MS will let something like RROD come back next generation.

2.- No, if i would have to buy a new console, i would buy a new 360.

3.- Of course yes, if the sofware if as amazing like is in this one, i will without a doubt.
