GiiBz Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Your pretty buggered for now.... But there is a "how to fix RRoD" on youtube. It kinda works but it can make the problem worse. But this is the main reason I chose the PS3. Because it's more durable, and it looks better IMO (and it's a good blu ray player) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rockstarrem Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 That really fucking sucks man. If you have a warranty then bring it into the store right away. I renewed my Xbox 360 warranty so I'm all set. Best Buy can just give me a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolci Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 This might make me not play until GTA comes out, no sense in risking it even though I have an Elite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockstarrem Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I just played Saint's Row just to make sure I didn't get the red ring of death . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolci Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I just played Saint's Row just to make sure I didn't get the red ring of death . I've been playing it recently to fill my GTA void and it's not doing the trick, it actually makes me long for GTA IV even more. Now I'm stuck with Call of Duty or Rainbow Six, which neither are appealing at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blur Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 This is the main reason why I'm not getting a Xbox. Damn Bill Gates, pethetic moron can't make shit. A feel very sorry for you. You must be going through a lot at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustADummy Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Bill Gates sucks. First, he invented Windows Vista: It sucks. Second, he made X360 but it has HW failures, wtf. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr.Dbl-Gee Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I dont get why... How could he let this happen? He released a console with serious errors. It was not meant to be sold so early, that was a fag move. Now all this shit is happenin cuz of his mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbanoutlaw Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Why does the ring of death happend? Agreed w/ rockstarrem, it's not helping anyone. I feel for you. The short version is the main boards weren't properly soldered when they were built & the cooling systems weren't up to the job. Units made after Sept '07 are supposed to be re-engineered to correct these problems & MS announced (I think around November) an extended 3-year warranty on ALL X360s as long as they haven't been opened by the user. A few people got around that but don't count on it. There also have been reports of people having some problems getting MS to honor the warranty until the console completely fails. As I just told another member, don't open the case. Get it to an authorized tech & rent a console for Tuesday. That's about your only option if you want to play on Tuesday unless someone can loan you a console. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor_Vance Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I got the ring of death too like 3 weeks ago, and I was like "hell no, I'm gonna play GTA IV the first day it comes out" So I just bought the xbox arcade it is a lot more cheaper but it's still the same graphics and you can use the same hardrive from your old xbox 360 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockstarrem Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Stupid choice no offense, should of sent it into MS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor_Vance Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 I tried... but I've had already sent one xbox 360 when it first got it... then it happend again, I tried to send it and they said I couldn't anymore... so I just bought an xbox 360 with hardearned money Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swifty Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 That's a tough break man, that's like your fire place caving in on Christmas eve. It's touching though how everyone is sharing your pain & is there for you in your hour of need. I'm still holding out for my next gen console, but I had been leaning towards the PS3 before this revelation, factor in the curse of the RRODD & my mind is pretty much made up.

And watch how ps3 owners cry about lag when playing online. So just go over a friends house till u get urs back First of all, a couple of my co workers have had their xbox's die too and they have told me that it took them about a month or month and a half. Thats why I'm pissed is because like most everyone else on this website ive been looking forward to this game since it was announced and now I have to wait anohter month? Lastly, I took great care of my xbox, It never moved once I unboxed it and sat on top of a table with plenty of air circulation, it was just bound to happen..... Its easy for you to say "stop crying" because your getting GTA 4 on tuesday, im not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Earth Kid Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 lol thats pretty bad aye......but you have to remember GTA IV is only a game...there's lots of better things than a game...sure it might be a good game...but there is still more stuff thats better than a game...like sport.... P.S are you going to go emo....? Maybe you should just buy a new Xbox...or a PS3? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
