Just got RRoD'd, Customer Service = :(
harelo | 11:10 PM on 03.31.2008 14 comments




So this is my 1st Blog, it is a however, a sad one.

Just suffered the dreaded Red Rings of Death, and will probably not have my console until June, meaning that I will have to wait for GTA IV.

I just wanted to open a Blog, and I found this to be a suitable topic. I am going to try the various "fixes" for it, but I don't know how long they will work (any other help is appreciated). The customer service at Xbox was pretty good, but I mean, a whole month? and they said that here in Canada I will probably be getting a refurbished product, so a whole month for something that already croacked once? I'm not too sure about that...

Thanks for reading, and thanks for being an awesome community :D

If it takes a month, won't you get it back by the beginning of May?

Welcome to Destructoid, I love you.

Also my 360 just RRoD'd earlier tonight when I was going to download "Still Alive" for Rock Band. The bitch still works, but I have to keep turning it off and on at least 20 times for it to boot up normally. Sucks that after 2 years, mine never screwed up until now.

Yes you are right, I'm terrible with dates.

I was missing my 360 for somewhere in the ball park of two and a half weeks. (You can read my overly sarcastic "experience" if you want...).
I'm not sure exactly where your 360 goes from Canada... but they all ship to Mexico from the US, I'd say that's a pretty good indicator of where yours is going too.

Mexico?! My 360 will be missed :( Good thing I didn't buy Vegas 2 then.

And thanks everyone for the love :D

Well as much as I'd like it to, I don't think it will be coming back with a tan (And a 120GB hard drive)

this is why Best Buy wins with their replacement plans.

still though, sad to see another RRoD in the MS world.

I was just wondering, I wish this was just a really bad taste joke done by MS, but it never is when you need it :(

Good luck. My Xbox 360 is having a hard time not crashing during Lost Odyssey, but unfortunately, its warranty ran out on Christmas Eve.
