Lol, typical. I played the 360 once at the local movies. After 5 minutes I managed to get a blue screen. Another piece of Microsoft junk

To be fair Xbox are the only consoles I've ever known to have such a common occurance of break downs. I can't stand the PS3 but there's no doubting that it's not as break down prone as 360 same goes for Wii. Anyone know what the common problems for 360s are?

yeah I dont know whats on them! I can read to PS deaths too but way more about X360 deaths. I dont know whats the problem at those. Maybe too much hi tech or just poor quality . Also the players have a lot to do with the deaths for sure. If you bash the controller and play ultimate lenghts without cooling it down and specially without cleaning it up,Im sure it dies. Im not talking about you,Will. I think you are a gentleman player BTW: "the proud owner of the playstation! Had PS1 for years-nothing,had PS2 for years-nothing,have PS3 now-so far nothing. Have had playstations since them early days and has always bought one as new almost at the release date so yes,I even have had the oldest versions of all 3 but still nothing!!"

Sorry to hear your Xbox has gone to console heaven!! My PS1 went to console heaven a while ago, one day i took out a game & the bit you put the discs on came out as well! I now have a PS2 silver I brought the old style one just before they brought out the slim lined ones. Im happy with my PS2, I also have a DS Lite & play a few games on my laptop. But I want a Wii.

Its being sent off to Germany tomorrow so Micro$oft (Microsoft, Micro$oft, Microshaft etc) can fix it..
Has cost £60 to repair...
If it had been a different error I would have had extended warranty...

Hardly played it since I brought GTA 4 for some reason and obviously won't any more. I came home from uni for the weekend for a quic blast, then ......... it went If it costs £60 to repair, forget that. I might just get one of those cheap Arcade ones brand new and use my old hard drive (providing thats not gone as well). Bad times

Chris, if it's 3 red lights you have a 3 year warranty. Mine only had 1 so I only got the regular warranty
