214007, Is anyone here on they 3rd or more xbox 360?
Posted by LittleX, Thu Nov-26-09 01:58 PM
Mine went out last night as I loaded Bioshock
My old Xbox still works, hell even my atari 2600 still works
Whats up on ps3? Will it get bioshock?
214008, why are you still playing Bioshock?
Posted by Steve O Tron v2, Thu Nov-26-09 02:16 PM
I had the red rings on my 360, sent it in, got it back. It's been fine since, but I haven't played much in the past year or two to know if it'll last extended play.
214011, I've only purchased one.
Posted by JFrost1117, Thu Nov-26-09 02:36 PM
As far as sending it back for repairs, maybe 4 or so.
214014, PS3 has Bioshock.
Posted by jetblack, Thu Nov-26-09 02:47 PM
And It's getting Bioshock 2 in Feb.
214020, Im on my third one now
Posted by ImPerfectNick, Thu Nov-26-09 04:32 PM
Didnt even play my second one very much. I got the first one back in like a week and a half, total. Second one took over a month.

Now my power supply is dying.

Get a PS3. Or wait till the next gen
214022, ^What he said. Get a PS3.
Posted by jetblack, Thu Nov-26-09 04:50 PM
214024, Still on my first

214033, Did your post count reset?
Posted by chillinCHiEF, Thu Nov-26-09 11:20 PM
214026, PS3 has Bioshock. Actually its the best version too
Posted by Lach, Thu Nov-26-09 07:30 PM
since it has the Chamber Rooms expansion available.
214032, ??
Posted by ne_atl, Thu Nov-26-09 11:18 PM
<Actually its the best version too

really?
214228, yeah, the slightly enhanced graphics
Posted by Lach, Sun Nov-29-09 07:10 PM
and the Challenge Rooms exclusive dlc. Aint much that's for sure, but with both games being the same price, the PS3 version has to get the nod.
214229, word? I mean I ain't played it on the triple
Posted by Rjcc, Sun Nov-29-09 07:11 PM
but i recall there being some discussion about a blurrier graphics filter and slightly lower quality textures on the ps3 version when it came out.

www.engadgethd.com - the other stuff i'm looking at
214232, looks the same.
Posted by jetblack, Sun Nov-29-09 07:35 PM
214034, This is my 4th
Posted by chillinCHiEF, Thu Nov-26-09 11:22 PM
Two RRODs and a ethernet port failure.

Still on my first PS3 and Wii.

No failures on any of the portable systems either. Had a DS, DS Lite and now DSi plus a PSP-1000, PSP-2000, PSP-3000 and now PSP Go.
214221, do new xboxes still do this?
Posted by LittleX, Sun Nov-29-09 06:06 PM
do new xboxes do this?
214227, my first PS3 got the yellow light of death (overheating)
Posted by Lach, Sun Nov-29-09 07:04 PM
But I was told that happens a lot on the 1st gen 60gb joints. So far so good on my slim joint. My 360s have been running good for the last year. Last summer I had my original 360 die for the 3rd time. MS fixed it again for free. Now my original 360 is my kids' system now.

But on the real everyone I know has had their first 360 break at least once. None of the folk I know have had their newer 360s break tho yet.
214270, 3rd. Laser went bad on 1, 2nd one got banned, recently got the 3rd one.
Posted by KnowOne, Mon Nov-30-09 08:54 AM
Oh and last week figured out how to go back and fix the original one by turning up the laser so now thats working again.
216454, My 3rd one is here, just waiting for UPS man to show up
Posted by LittleX, Mon Dec-21-09 12:49 PM
They gave me a 3 month warranty on this 3rd one, LOL

Should I sell it now, and get a ps3
216455, is it still the old model 360 from a couple years ago?
Posted by Lach, Mon Dec-21-09 01:01 PM
If so, sell that joint right now on ebay or craigslist and get a PS3. That's my advice.
216457, I dunno
Posted by LittleX, Mon Dec-21-09 01:07 PM
How can you tell? What in teh serial number tells you that info?
216459, not sure. is it one with an hdmi output?
Posted by Lach, Mon Dec-21-09 01:21 PM
216461, 1st RROD, 2nd RROD, 3rd...working for now

216467, Quick question:
Posted by JFrost1117, Mon Dec-21-09 02:54 PM
On a 720p HDTV, what's the A/V difference between component & HDMI? I don't wanna actually buy a new 360, but the difference would be the deciding factor.
216486, On my 3rd one...
Posted by RAYDA, Mon Dec-21-09 05:59 PM
1st and 2nd got the RROD

Can't vouche for the PS3 either since mine just got the yellow light of death and I've only had it a year and a half. I don't play either one that much.
216498, just like that im on my 4th one
Posted by LittleX, Mon Dec-21-09 09:00 PM
got it today and it was all smashed up - im sending it back
216520, on the first, but it's RROD-ed already.
Posted by Dr Claw, Tue Dec-22-09 09:17 AM
226533, Sent mine to TX to fix the disc drive
Posted by JFrost1117, Wed Mar-24-10 09:41 AM
I'll say though, this is the quickest I've ever gotten it back. Hopefully I don't have to send it right back like I did last time.
226534, i think im on my 4th right now
Posted by HighVoltage, Wed Mar-24-10 09:57 AM
so far so good... its actually been really good for quite some time.

worrying that its time is coming...
226543, 1 of my 360s is going almost 2 years strong
Posted by Lach, Wed Mar-24-10 11:42 AM
The newer one hasn't had any problems and I've had that one a year.
226578, i bought two in late 07, an elite and an arcade
Posted by IkeMoses, Wed Mar-24-10 05:29 PM
the elite is dead, but the arcade survives.

i'ma cop an extra arcade eventually.
