My poor xbox 360

After over two years of use my launch consoles has finally died, games are not reading and I have had the ring of death twice. Not to gutted though as its lasted the longest out of all I know, my neighbours had 4

ring of death twice

ok way over my head here

but never mind Phil more time watch football or post on here OH god did i really say that

Oh noooooooooooooo! we havnt had that with ours yet......

What has microsoft said?

My sister contacted them before over a problem so they will only deal with her. But its out of warranty but apparantly its been extended to three years because of the high failure rate of launch consoles, so hopefully I will be ok. Just stick with the wii and ps3 for a while.

When did you get yours?, if you dont mind my asking

My sons has gone back for repair 3 times now under warranty and they don't even guarantee their repair. It's now out of warranty so if it goes again he has to buy a new one.
UPS collect them and the driver reckons he collects hundreds each week.

Got mine a week before launch through work.. so far so good. We did get a few back due to overheating though ...

Sorry to hear about your console Phil will you be getting a new one?

I have had a check and it seems if it was a launch console it will be covered, (3yrs) as microsoft has admited the lauch ones were substandard.

Just keep a close eye, I thought I had fluked it but sadly not. It is costing ms millions, but its their own fault for rushing it out.

If they cant repair it then yes.

I will have ups pick it up within five days, and then should have it back within three weeks. The type of problem is covered by a three year warranty so luckily I was still well inside that.

On my way back this morning with the dogs and saw the ups van pull up, my baby is back home.
