Hooray! This doesn't completely blow!

Enough sarcasm, this sucks balls. Not sure whether I'm in range for warranty or not. Guess I'll just have to send it back to MS and see what they can do for me. At least its not all bad; I did pick up Red Dead Redemption today (for the PS3). So that will be sure to keep me busy for the rest of the summer (unless Transformers: War for Cybertron turns out to be good).

Question? This is my third Xbox 360 to die on me. How many systems have YOU been through?

I went through one, and that was enough for me. I refused to go through 3 or 4 systems or some cases, 7.

Absolutely inexcusable for Microsoft to have let such a problem be so widespread. Granted, they did do their part by extending warranties, but I still think it's utterly ridiculous they pushed their system out so quickly as to not test it's quality first.

Sorry for what seems to be a rant.
I went through 2, only because they replaced the first one free of charge but after the second one I became more than happy with only my PS3 and Wii.
Three have died on me, but I got my revenge. Sometime after they sent the fourth, I voluntarily purchased a parallel Xbox. Hah.
My roommate has had to get his replaced once so far but is lending it to our friends that recently had theirs redring out of warranty. We've just been using our respective PS3's and my Wii since then and everything's been dandy.
I'm on my second 360. My first died on xmas day 09. Thanks for ruining xmas microsoft. You're the effing grinch!
Just one. My sympathies. Also, someone should make a pamphlet about getting your first red ring in a style so people can sort out the anger and confusion that comes with it.

DOUBLE POST FAIL!!!!!

Shit, I need a drink.
I really hate saying "I told you so"...who am I kidding?? Dude, I told you this was going to happen. But I heard you got another one again, so let's hope that one doesn't ring out too. (Now taking bets, I say 8 months)
