Quick update.  I have just got the 3 RROD on my latest console and this was one I have already sent back once.  Its ok if you switch it off.  But its happened 3 times now so i'm not holding my breath.  And just to clarify again, 2 of the consoles that failed I part exchanged to lower the price of a new one.  Those consoles will be used as spares to fix other broken 360's.  So no they wont be resold.

Also anyone here who thinks I am anti 360 is so so wrong.  I have 40 games for 360, 15 for the wii and 7 for the PS3. I just wish they didnt have such a massive failure rate.  If the current one I am having problems with does fail.  then thats 7.  No one should have to put up with such a poor product.

The impact of RROD re-buys in X360 is minor at best (

Its called Warranty expiration lol

Anyway, it was a question.  Unfortunately people on here think that a question that contains a negative aspect must mean I hate the 360.

Its the console I play the most by far.  Its the console I have the most games for.

Just read the question and take it for what it is.  Do not many any assumptions about the person that asked it.

My friends 360 had RROd and he went out an bought an arcade. The funny part is that the refurbished one came back the day after he bought the arcade.

I know mate.  thats why I originally bought anoter Xbox.  I had 1.  It broke, didnt want to wait for the repair, so bought another.  Had that in my bedroom.  Then one went again.  but because both were in use, I didnt want to wait.  So got another.  So I had 3.  Kept one as a spare just incase.  Which was lucky as I had more failures.  Then decided to give that to my dad for him to stream movies to.  That one went 2 months ago.  Then just 1 week later one of mine went.  Now another is about to fail.

I bought 2 Xbox 360 when they first launched, they both RROD out of Box,so instead of saving money, i went out and bought an additional 2 Xbox 360. Again they both RROD,guess what? I bought another 4.

Well wouldnt you know 3/4 of the 360's RROD,thats 7 RROOD xbox 360 i have, Damn MS needs to make them better! I should of taken my 2000$and bought a Trey,because Trey has the best line up of AAA exclusive games,Free online,Blue Ray! It ONLY DOES ERRAY THANG!

Just because Sony pays me $2000 a month to go onto Online forums,and talk about how my console is better means nothing,oh when people on the forums try to counter my BS claims with logic i just ignore there post and keep on posting,or i change the rules. For Example

Garnett "PS3 has Castle Crasher as an Exclusive"

Xbot "it was on 360 first,what are you talking about exclusive"

Garnett "2009 exclusive!!!! asshole!           

 Or my favorite,when i say games on PC and 360 are not exclusives,you see it makes every one thing PC is a huge gaming platform,like anyone would buy a PC over a PS3/Wii/360. It also makes the 360 lose one less exclusive and makes my gaming console superior and i can sleep at night.

OT-     Why wouldn't the sales figures for the 360 be right? Does this mean PS2 sales are not right? i say 80 million broke PS2. That means the Wii has already outsold the PS2,Congrats Nintendo!                                                                                                                                                                      

Arent some people on here sad.

1 This is over a 3 year period.

2 Im not short on money, so buying a replacement is not an issue but that isn't the point.

3 As I have already said I have 40 360 games and 7 PS3 games.  Not exactly a PS3 endorsement.

4 Everybody on here knows the 360 has had a lot of issues.  So dont defend its reliabilty, youll just end up with egg on your face.

well still on my first one bought for christmas the year of launch... never had a RROD and I do use it as a heater in winter running it 24/7 for several weeks with no reboot and just for that exception it makes up for all the RROD other people had :D

no but seriously you guys do realize you can fix a RROD yourself in about 10 minutes ??? no need to wait for it to be shipped fixed and resent to you.... you guys seating on RROD consoles as furnitures.... probably lost more time to go buy a new one... than have at hand a heat sink paste kit to do the job... you know like having a few extra light bulbs in case one blows...
