Third Xbox 360 to take a shit on me

[Sparegeez]

I called them today and they said there were some RARE problems with their computers and thats why they haven't been able to fix my shit. They're gonna sned the box this week and refund the $140 I payed for because of their screw up

^^^I appreciate the news but I don't think that will help me at all. My 360 can't read any disks, it has nothing to do with red flashlighting.

Same thing happened to me. Call them up again and get a box. They WILL fix it.

PS3 is a ripoff. It isn't as powerful as Xbox 360 (Xbox 360 version of Madden 08 will run in 60 FPS while the PS3 will be in 30 FPS), shitty online, and not many good games. Oh yeah, it's hella expensive.

Man i'm fucking heated. I just got Forza 2 and the pelican intercooler and now the DVD drive has stopped working. Oh well, I still got my old xbox and street fighter so I guess i'll be alright till that bitch comes back.

that sucks man! have fun with street fighter  (btw street fighter rules)

Fuck yeah. Been playin SFIII for a couple of days

Their fixing it for free now because they couldn't send the fucking box for over 5 months. So I guess it's good news but I kind of wished I played my gears of war and Rainbow Six online during that while

Yeah but I might not even download them for a while. I haven't had time to fully enjoy the original maps.

My launch 360 is still alive and kicking

I spoke too soon, got the darkness popped it in and played for about 45 mins and the fucker gave me 2 red lights(overheating) so now i'm gonna have to wait until it gets hot enough to ruin some shit.

Why? Some Gamestop guy told me it's useless.

I've been thinking about that but I heard if you use any 3rd party coolers it voids your warranty, but I don't know how that applies to this new one. I'm hoping that it will just break and give me a 3rd light so I can get it fixed free.

It really isn't. Most of the time the Xbox 360's fail is because of the poor design inside of it. The heat can actually BEND the mobo and that's where problems start occuring. My first xbox 360's graphics card melted from overheating (and my xbox has GREAT air circulation). If your Xbox doesn't seem to get hot, then don't get the intercooler. But I would HELLA recommend the pelican one I posted above.

My xbox 360 is back in business! I fucked with the DVD drive and it works once again

Thanks thats good to know about the warranty. All I could find locally was the Nyko cooler which is supposed to be shit. I'm gonna give MS a call tomorrow and see what the deal is.
