No such thing,every system will break eventually.

 

 

after one year though? My grandma's Snes (i gave mine to her when i got N64) is still working to this day.

Nes dosent have parts that reach over 200 degrees,Snes dosent have to spin a disc everytime you wanna play a game,Its probly the 360 Disc drive,Did you play it alot or leave it on for hours on at a time?

 

that's a very good point dude, it just hurts my balls, cause it's a lot of cash,

E74 is a problem w/ the GPU scaler chipset (overheating) and generally leads to a solder melt which causes RRoD.  Sorry man.  You still have the 3 year warranty if you didn't open it up.

No you ain't.

In the meantime, play with your Dreamcast and your SNES! D:



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

e74 is not  covered by warranty the best thing you can do it's make it rrod. and reclaim your warranty.

i edited, typed fast, i am planning to buy one next month.



OP:
Console yourself with this: if it RRoDded before Xmas, due to units needed to stock resellers, you risked more having back a refurbished unit, while now, with lower sales and larger availability of new units, MS could have more interest to fix your problem on a longer term giving you a new and more reliable unit.
