So I called Microsoft yesterday morning to confirm that I wanted to have my 360 repaired/replaced, the damn thing doesn’t want to let me play games. Actually some games work but most either crash 5 minutes into gameplay or give me some kind of ‘does not recognize disc’ message so I decided to just have them change it out. This is the 3rd one I’ve had to send back hopefully this fourth one sticks so I can finally play my games.

The pile of games that I need to play through keeps getting bigger and bigger with each time I’m 360-less though this time they said they would be giving me 1 free month of XBL Gold which really means nothing to me. What about the other months? I should be getting like 3-4 months for free heck they should have given me 6 months or a year free. It seems as though it doesn’t matter how many times your 360-less for weeks they just ask you the same questions then send you a box.

Yes, I tried it with out my hard drive.

No, my games are not scratched.

Yes, my 360 is in a well ventilated area.

Oh well, I’ll just keep my fingers cross that this one will be different then the others.

That's a shame. Sorry about that. Hopefully it comes back sooner than later! It seems like this year has been a REALLY bad one for red rings and what not. :(

it really sucks to have to wait a month to get my system back and considering this is the 4th time I have had to do this you would think that maybe they would offer me a faster turn around . I don't care about the one free month of gold I've already lost like 3 months from going back and forth with these systems .

So I couldn't finish the Darkness, couldn't get anywhere in Bioshock and now Blue Dragon is sitting there just waiting to be played = (

on my 3rd one it was before the warranty was extended and their replacement had broken in only two months! they kept saying that i had to pay but I refused and like 2 days later they extended the warranty to 3 years to I called back and told them to replace it damn it!

And people wonder why I am waiting to buy the green behemoth's console.

Seriously, if every person I knew at Gamestop didn't have theirs die, I might think about picking one up.

It's great that they extend the warranty, but they don't seem to be fixing the problem *causing* the rrod issues.

Until then, make mine a shiny black baby (ps3).

that is all.
