Has it happened to you yet? I heard ps3 and xbox 360 fucked up.
-
Xbox has a wayyyy bigger failure rate....I know tons of people with PS3 since launch and never heard of anyone having there PS3 die on them....But I know like 3 people who have Xbox and all of them got the red ring.
-
Have you read the recent news from yahoo.com? They said xbox fixed it and it should be good PERMENTLY.
-
happen to my friend also with a 360 1 month after he bought it
-
Does the ring of death just happen random?
Or is it because peep's play it 24/7 without shutting it off and expect a machine to never overheat.
;D
Just something I always wondered.
Play on player's, but get some sunshine once in a while.
-
Hasn't happen to me, then again - I don't play my 360.

the red ring is like when your system overheats, but it happens to 1/3 of all Xbox's no matter what, at some point.
happened to most of my freinds like a year and a half - two years into having one.
but you just send it into Mircosoft & they will fix it for you or send you a brand new one, for free; but it takes a month! >:(
my freind got it once & they tried to fix his & sent it back & it happened again, now he has to wait to get a new one. so if it happens to you i would recommend asking for a new one lol.
the yellow light of death? i never heard of that, but if the red ring is the cancer of Xbox is the yellow light the AIDS? :P

Yes, yellow light appears in PS3 if it died. You can check it out at youtube.com.

I know a guy at work, 28 years old, fat gut, still lives with his mom, he plays 360 all day and he's proud of it
I feel sorry for him to be honest... he's real nice but quite clueless..
for some reason he's almost 30 and still hasn't put his life into perspective, still shooting imaginery figures on the screen :P
he even took a day off work (Friday) to go to a video game party.... now if that isn't some shit....
-
probably driving his car like Grand Terismo or Grand Theft Auto.
-
still waiting for microsoft to send me back my xbox, fucking RROD!!!

original xbox with zephir architecture have a rate of 33% of failure, newer models with the falcon got approx. 5% of failure. They talk about less than 1% with the future jasper models and a drop in prices.
Ps3 have better results in %. I know only 3 persons who own it and the 3 had the same problem with the lens. I dont know what the problem really is. I was talking with an expert the other day and he told me it was because the lens of the ps3 is made of plastic instead of glass and is not designed to run all the time, that's one of the reason why the system copy most of the game on the hard drive. I highly doubt this is true, to me it sounds like bs to sell more advanced warranties. The problem must something else, they say the ps3 is the best blu ray driver for less than 1000$ so i dont see why it would be equiped with a cheap lens.

if it takes more than 2 weeks you should call and complain they're gonna give you a wireless head set or a free game. My friend got 2 games like that
-
new generation systems are shitty. The quality of the systems sucks and break down easily. Look at ps2, that shit is still GOOD. That shit works way better than new gen systems.
-
I am on my 3rd Xbox 360
my previous 2 both got the RROD
I just got my new one recently and its a jasper so hopefully it lasts longer than my previous 2
