For what it's worth.
Now that's a bit more damning, most people with an issue won't put it on YouTube but they will go to the Official Forums.
oh man, can you imagine what would happen if the console couldn't read disk and overheated at the same time.
Haha, was thinking similarThis xbox telling you, that physical discs are bad and you should go digital
These people just spent $499 for an Xbox One. And you're expecting them to be smart? That was your first mistake.
Yeah maybe CBOAT's embargo can be lifted now?Was this CBOAT's revelation?
Bish, now that Xbox one is out, can he post the list you told us about?
I felt bad for missing the midnight PS4 launch and had to get it in the morning but these guys are going to have to wait days to get a return back.
Way too early!Is it fair to say this is more problematic than PS4 issues?
Was this CBOAT's revelation?
if it is i can't think of a worse thing to hold from potential consumers. what's CBOAT going to say:
"yeah, this is what we knew about, we just wanted people to throw away $500 for shits and giggles"
They just keep coming
Shots fired
This one is a bit different, the disc tray is stuck with the game inside:

The grinding sound on this one is especially loud, I feel uneasy just hearing it.
Nails on a chalkboard.
Some days, you go, through the raaaaain
Some days, you feed, on a BLUUUUU RAAAAAAY
There are worse things than being without your console for a day, or a week, or two weeks, or whatever. It's better for these things to happen right at launch than to present themselves years down the line.
This seems perfectly comparable to the PS4 HDMI thing, in that it's a pure manufacturing defect. It doesn't appear to be indicative of a ticking time bomb like RROD.
What a thrill...
With darkness and grinding through the night
What a thrill...
I'm searching and I'll insert my disc into you
What a fear in my heart
But you're so supreme!
I'd give my discs
Not for honour, but for you! [Disc Eater]
In my time there'll be no physical
Crime, it's the way I fly to you! [Disc Eater]
I'm still in a digital world,
Disc Eater!
Someday you go through the rain
And someday, you feed on a Blu-ray
This ordeal, The trial to survive
For the day we see new light!

Yeh, tihs is waht we kenw abt. We jst watnde pepople to trhow awy $500 for shtis adn ggiiggles.
Jesus, I hope this is just like the initial wave making things worse than they are like the PS4's issues. No one deserves a broken console.
so, Amazon was used as a tool to highlight the PS4 falure rate...so here goes: 50%:

Sorry to those affected, I'm sure it's nowhere near this high so fingers crossed it's a similar issue like with PS4 (in that it appears it was a batch)
yes i just got off the phone this is a pre launch problem that they knew about and shipped them anyway, they said so on the phone. call them tell them your store is sold out and they will send you a replacement in 3 to 5 days. its happening to 50% of the consoles, its already being called the click of death.
At the same time... I can understand the frustration in paying half a grand (and then some for games and accessories), bringing the thing home, hooking it up, taking that deep breath... here it comes, I can't wait...
Click of death.
I'd be rip-roaring pissed. Yeah, I get that I asked for it by picking up a launch unit, but it's still anger-inducing and confidence-deflating towards the company that made your lemon. When it happened with my PlayStation back in 1995, I ripped into the manager at Electronics Boutique and then ripped into Sony customer service. If I'd had YouTube back then, I would've made a video about spending $400+ overall on something that gave me a bouncing screen. Worse-- Sony could do nothing about it and told me to get a new TV.
Keep in mind, too, that some people planned their lives around this launch. Many took time off from work or school. They fit it into their schedules and were genuinely excited. You can't get that time back. It's lost... especially if it's time off from work. Sure, you don't have to work, but now your whole purpose for that time off is gone.
I know the forum portal was posted, but here's the direct link to the thread about Xbox ONE's disc failures: http://forums.xbox.com/xbox_forums/xbox_support/xbox_one_support/f/4269/t/1625602.aspx?PageIndex=1
Also, here's a quote from a post in that same thread, on page 4. Anecdotal, but might be damning:
Have no idea why customer support would say anything like that, but still...

No, I never saw so many videos of problems at the PS4 launch. What's worrying here, is that so many buyers have the same bluray drive issues.This seems perfectly comparable to the PS4 HDMI thing, in that it's a pure manufacturing defect.
