Not Even The Giant Red Rings Can't* Stop the Red Ring.
Pixelated Lilac \| 4:15 PM on 10.20.2007	3 comments

So I was just strolling through the not so local, not so friendly Target, and I decide to browse the video game section, even though my broke ass can't afford anything. That is when I stumbled upon the infamous error.

And I was feeling like shit this whole week so seeing this made me feel a bit better about myself, or at least my home console. This was actually the first time I've seen the RRoD 'in person'.

And look! Its right under Jim Sterling's favorite game.

Only fitting, eh? The funny thing is that the Target employees is no matter how many people reported about this problem, they treated like a normal day in the 360 aisle.]

I work in a best buy, and we have our 360 in a little case like that... it continually shows varying numbers of flashing red lights, and we leave it alone until it cools down and starts working again, as there is nothing else we can do about it.

That's the unfortunate effect of having a console inside a plastic case. Not much ventilation.
