new 360 guaranteed to not red ring

[Fabioisonfire]

I also heard that on the Xbox 360 Slim if you move it even a little bit while its playing a game I think the game gets near enough destroyed.

That happens with the regular 360 though.

And any console for that matter. It's called 'laser burn'. Happened with my Wii and Super Smash Brothers Brawl.

I have an old style Xbox from back when ( like 2007? ) and I still have it.

It's faithful.

And yeah my brawl doesn't work which was the only reason I felt like plugging my wii in from a few months ago.

Oh, yeah! Come to think of it, I had that happen to my CoD4 disc. I forgot about that.

[Psychonaut]

isn't there a ps3 variant of the RRoD?

Yellow Light of Death or something? the power LED stays/blinks yellow instead of green when you turn it on or something along those lines? I'm probably skipping some important detailsl on why or how often it happens..

I lol'd hard, though.

also, brawl discs not being read on wii consoles happened, if that matters

If something's going to go wrong, how would you expect the system to react? It'll just explode? Every electronic has bugs, so don't expect all of them to be fixed because they change something around. New bugs show up with every iteration of electronic equipment, it's a simple fact. Whether they attempt to make a solution to them with each iteration is the big deal, and Microsoft has dealt with them pretty efficiently, if you ask me.

I think it involves a little more than them just replacing the LEDs.

did you read it?

I did. The RROD problem has been solved for a long while now, since the latest 360 iteration in 2008. I'm simply stating the fact that they have to have some sort of way to notify you of a problem on your system, and that's what Microsoft's stating this notification for.

actually if it starts overheating it just shuts itself off to prevent burning your house down

i also heard that the whole laserburn/disc shredding is a lot worse with this xbox?

meh, probably only a stupid people problem.

 

[m12]

I never had a problem with that, only when my little brother moved it while it was on, so yeah. It's a stupid people problem.

 

[Sporge27]

All systems can have failures. The 360 has just had the highest percentage out of the current 3. Even if the main problem was mostly fixed, there will still be problems with the xbox, as there can be with all others. If we can find somewhere that has ratios of only the most recent models, then that is data I can believe.

Fact is this sounds more like trying to cover up something that happened. The RROD became sooo well known they want to dissociate from it... which makes me lol
