Go wrap a towel around your 360 or something.

I don't have to because my sytem runs fine. Maybe you should play a PS3 game, oh wait the PS3 has crap for a game libarary.

All you did was come into this thread and bash and insult. Go wrap a towel around your 360.



I've got nothing better to do than piss in Xbot's cheerios apparently. See what happens when I try to be fair and tell him to buy a 360, I'll never make that mistake again. I'll only recommend PS3 from here on out, much less headaches associated with it.

I had a 31 day turnaround and someone I know was quoted as 4-6 weeks. Don't give me that 2 weeks bullshit, it's not 2006 anymore.

You weren't fair. All you did was ignore that MS actually did something to alleviate the problem and just reiterated that MS hardware sucks.

My turn around time in March was 2-3 weeks. Then I went on an Ebay shopping spree and bought a bunch of 3ROL ones to investigate the problem.

this is recommending, and telling a person to buy a X-box 360??????

If you get a 2nd heatsink in yours and they're still 90nm. 65nm is RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER. Personally, I'd just wait a little while if I was going to get a 360 so I don't have to deal with a 6-8 week wait for a replacement system down the road.

That's why I said, if you want a PS3, get it now, that way you get 5 free Blu-rays and the PS2 hardware BC.

If he wants a 360, he should wait..

Looks like you are telling him to get a PS3.

If that's not trolling, I don't know what is, then again going by your post history, it's not surprising, neither is this little fact. The fact that you should even have to consider wrapping a towel around your $400 videogame console in order to fix it to make up for system defects is astounding to say the least.

Me, not being fair? :lol The fact that I've remained so level-headed and coherent in my sleep-deprived state while being assaulted by tons of Xbots is pretty good on my part to say the least. What'd MS do? The warranty, that fixes the problem, right? Does it send out Peter Moore pixie fairies across the country to install heatsinks and remove red rings? No, it's a band-aid, it fixes nothing and it counts on your system dying.

Mine was 31 days, you're also proof there's a large issue out there since you were able to easily buy so many dead systems.

If you read the thread instead of just coming in here to sling insults, you'll see that I said COUNTLESS times that he should get a 360, but wait until the issues were fixed.

Looks like you are telling him to get a PS3.

Yeah, because you people can't ****ing read and I lost my patience after dealing with so much shit for so long. This thread and the 360 give me headaches, I now say avoid them, because you people piss me off to no end. You need cjelly's tag "will bend over and grab ankles for MS", it's just disgusting to see the lengths that some people will go to defend atrocities, you're probably a nazi sympathizer too.

There was a large issue. I doubt there will be now. The ones that are sending out from the refurbs shouldn't be coming back again because of the new heatsink design.

How is it a band-aid? A proper heatsink cooling design can do wonders.

We should have asked him what kind of games he likes. Not everyone has the same tastes.

You doubt. I don't care for your doubts. I didn't get a new heatsink in mine, it's GOING to die again.

The warranty is a band-aid and for the 1000th mother****ing time, the 2nd heatsink is UNPROVEN.

I'm literally in awe here, do you people choose not to read, did you ride the small bus to school or are you just ****ing retarded beyond belief?

I just don't get it...

I said the heatsink is not a band-aid.

You admit that the new heatsink will help.

 

[MCD]

Keep it clean and civil folks, no need for insults and trolling.

Of course it will help and so will 65nm, I've been saying this all goddamn day.

I give up, 360 wins yay go celebrate or whatever, it's no longer fun, I'm going to bed and my faith in humanity is gone, thanks.

 

[Karma Kramer]

Either get an Elite right now... or wait until the Pro console gets the 65nm..

If your console breaks though just send it in and Microsoft will actually fix it this time... so when you get it back you should get either an extra heat sink or the newer chips...

So there is minor risk in getting it now if you don't get an Elite... but if it break the repair is free and you should get a console with all the new parts...

It depends on if you want to take that risk.

Well, I don't think it's even that big of a risk if you are smart where you buy from. Doing the date of manufacture check is a must, but he could also try going to Cost Co since they have that replacement warranty for hardware.

I have a hard time listening to you since you proclaimed that not having a hard drive standard is "destroying the game industry" or some such nonsense. It's really hard to take you seriously when you consistently make such dramatic, silly claims. It's not rational criticisms...it's over the top screaming in order to get attention.
