Just buy a brand new one............................................so that one can break too!

seriously though, i hope you get it fixed..................................... .

Take it to MS. They recently "streamlined" their return department so these broken 360s that are costing them $1 billion will be in and out in a few days time.

Wait...

They are refusing to take it cause it has the RROD a 2nd time???

That is BS! I know at least 2 r 3 people that have done that more than once! It is a manufacturing thing, unless there is something else wrong with it too...

Call them again and talk to a supervisor.

[Wreck]

its because u posted in a forum called "Blu-ray games and PS3" ... perhaps off topic u wouldnt get flamed .. it was pretty funny to see this, and I bet it will get moved.

Perfect example that u still make mistakes with 100+ post counts.

Jesus Christ . . . this site has certainly attracted a sizable chunk of douche bags, hasn't it? If you don't want to answer the guy's question, don't. There are plenty of people on this site that have Xbox 360's, and I'm more comfortable with many of the members here than I would be by joining a new forum just to ask a question. Get over yourselves.

[CptGreedle]

Exactly. This is a Blu-ray forum. The 360 (so far) does not support Blu-ray and so you are getting flamed. Not to mention the 360 is renowned for the rrod and other fatal issues so saying "360 broke" is hilarious to us.

Good luck with it though... MS SHOULD fix it if it is the rrod.

i have had one fixed twice by microcrap. under warranty within 6 months. that was enough to abandon the crapbox camp

No it's the Blu-ray Games and PS3 forum.

Maybe you meant Blu-ray.com?

In which case the PS3 is still applicable to most of it's forums anyway since it does most things related to Blu-ray...except record. I don't know why the 360 is ever discussed or promoted on this board though .. since it has nothing to do with or benefits Blu-ray.

You might want to call again, if its the RROD, there is no set limit to how many times you can send it in.

+1. its nothing against the buyers, i just really, really, really hate the 360. i respect the wii more than the 360. i got no problem with the regular xbox though, i had one actually. the 360 thinks is better than it is. FPS only go so far!

What you did would be like a Red Sox fan posting in an unofficial Yankees forum that his David Ortiz jersey ripped an he wants to know where to fix it to get it stictched up.

That is one of the funnier things I read today.

MY X BOX IS GOING THROUGH THE DREADED RED RING DISEASE, IS THERE ANYWHERE YOU CAN RECOMMEND IN IT GETTING FIXED??

All you need to do is call MS I believe the number is 800 my xbox and they will fix it for free. Why pay a third party to do it when they are covering the rrod under warranty.

Indeed, this is a Blu-Ray site. Yet another media that an xcrotch three sucky can't play.



Swing and a miss, any other batters want to step up to the plate?

Good thing I'm not going for originality points

yeah, but in not going for originality points, you got fail points and lost the internet.

[Copywriter]

Sorry to hear your 360 broke. Mine is a couple years old and I'm just waiting.

I'd hit the 360 forum at IGN and ask around there. Obviously, asking for 360 help on a PS3 board isn't going to get you anywhere.

If mine breaks, I'd be taking it to the trash. I won't ever buy another.

Why is this in the PS3 Games section?

[RIPSeanTaylor21]

YOU KNOW SOMETHING, IM SORRY FOR ASKING PEOPLE FOR SOME HELP ! I APOLOGIZE FOR THAT ONE. I DONT APOLOGIZE FOR WRITING IN CAPS, IF IT BOTHERS YOU THEN CLOSE YOUR SCREEN, AND YOU DONT WANNA, THEN THAT SOUNDS PERSONAL. BUT SERIOUSLY THO, SOME PEOPLE ON THIS WEBSITE HAVE BEEN REALLY COOL AND HELPFUL OTHERS HAVE BEEN A BUNCH A TECH SAVY RETARDS WHO HAVE A PS3, and thats its! NOTHING ELSE TO THERE LIFE! IM SORRY FOR ASKING THOSE PEOPLE FOR HELP! I THOUGHT THAT I COULD ASK A GROUP OF PEERS, ESPICIALLY THOSE WHO HAVE THE SAME COMMON INTEREST THAT I DO, BLU RAY! IVE BEEN AN ADVOCATE FOR QUITE SOME TIME. WAY BEFORE MOST OF YOU! I MIGHT NOT BE AN EXPERT MEMBER OR HAVE A 35,000K system IN MY HOUSE. BUT HEY, YOU KNOW WHATS ITS NOT WORTH IT. FOR THE FEW WHO HAVE BEEN CURTEOUS I GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR HELP AND ADVICE, FOR THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN PAINS IN THE ASS....I GOT TWO WORDS FOR YOU.....

Probably to get more attention for his 360 problem. I mean, the off topic forum isn't that popular, and the PS3 forum is probably the closest thing as this is a gaming forum. But I mean, come on. Leave the guy alone. Just because the guy bought a 360 and posted his problem on this forum, doesn't need to cause uproar. I'm planning on getting a Wii soon, but I don't want people to to flame on which console is better or worse. Please, he's a forum member and we should respect him.
