My Xbox 360 has died
Posted Sun, 4th Nov at 7:11 AM
So I had just purchased The Orange Box for the Xbox 360 and now I have met the infamous Red Ring of Death before I can even load the game up.
What is the RROD? Well Microsoft in their haste to get the 360 out the door, cut a few corners and have a greater than 30% failure rate on all Xbox 360 consoles.
The problem is so bad that Microsoft have extended the warranty to 3 years for any Xbox 360 that has this problem.
So I have filled out the online form and will ship it to them for repair.
Normally I can wait a couple of weeks between games no problems, but having just bought a game and not getting to play it, is pretty frustrating. :-(
