I see a new xbox in my future
Should have bought a PS3.
I can't believe they continue to sell these things with all the "red ring of death" problems that continue to plague them.
PC games FTW

Just happened to my Elite for the first time as well... Very sad.
I'm done with Xbox360. My fourth RROD's not to long ago. I'm only playing games on PC and PS3 now.
Stitch - I spent Saturday playing NCAA Football 2010 and Winter Olympics on the PS3 at a friends house. Yeah, now I want one. ;)
Microsoft fix it for free everytime?Quote:

The Xbox360 is now starting to show signs of age. Most developers are still not releasing titles that utilize a full 1080p native resolution, and the cost for the Xbox Live! service which allows you to play your games online with friends will be going up to $65.00 per year sometime in the second quarter of this year.
Sony's PS3 has been a slow and steady unit that is now really come into the light, there is no fee to play games online, and it's library is now really something to brag about.
Hy, I'm glad you enjoyed playing on the PS3 there. Hopefully you'll be able to make that jump someday soon and join Palooka and I in some games!
They are fixing mine at no charge and its 1 month from 3 years old.
Um, they're shipping me a label and doing everything for free... Mine is 2 years and a half years old.
You sure it doesn't just apply to people with multiple RRODs?
I think that rule only applies to Stitch and his h4XX0r friends. :D
:D only on the spare one Bribo ;)Quote:

Stitch,
When I finally buy a PS3, I'll need some advice on how best to connect it up to my PC Monitor, sound, etc. I think I can use an auxiliary input into my PC speakers. I don't 'think' I have another DVI input on my monitor, it's either VGA or S-Video if I recall correctly.
