Poll: The red ring

[Soxafloppin]

Yes, not enough fibre.

But in seriousness yes i have.

 

[similar.squirrel]

I did after a trip to Vietnam. But a little penicillin cleared it right up.

...Well done.

 

[FinalHeart95]

Nope. Got some error thing that was spreading like swine flu, but it wasn't the red ring.

 

[EMFCRACKSHOT]

Three fucking times. I still don't trust the damn thing any more.

You had it three times too? sucks doesnt it.
I know one guy who has had it 7 times. Its disgraceful. We should all be given free upgrades to apologise for the trauma we have suffered

I'm on my 4th and last 360. had them all replaced under the service plan at best buy. I will never buy any console ever again. PS3 is a blu-ray player (which my pc already has), the wii has the worst controllers I have ever used, and xbox live nickles and dimes you to DEATH for mediocre updates and map packs.

They should fix the fucking console! I've heard of hundreds of people getting this damn thing so you'd think that Microsoft would have fixed the errors by now... I don't know anyone who wants to buy a £250 piece of tech just to have it fuck up on them.

 

[whiteonrye]

had it twice... and i still havent gotten it back from them!

 

[yankeefan19]

I have never had RROD

 

[The Ambrosian]

Unplugged my Xbox for some reason plugged it back in and i got RRoD for about 5 seconds then it went back to normal.

 

[ace_of_something]

It happened to me after about a week. I was told to send it in. I yelled at them on the phone asking where they get off selling an incomplete product and likening it to a car breaking down after having it for a month.

I got all my money back and sent them the fucking thing. I sold my games and controllers.

Then I went and bought a PS3.

 

[lolmynamewastaken]

i laugh in the face of your RRoD! *cough*no known software issues for ps3*cough*

No. Also you should have added the option "I don't have a XBox 360" onto the poll.

Then why would you read this topic?

to rub it in?

 

[Ben7]

Atleast 3 times, by the third time i gave up on the xbox and returned to my reliable pc who welcomed me back with open arms.

I just got the red ring, which sucks especially since I bought the elite model to avoid getting the bloody thing! So I call all my friends who have at one point or another owned a 360, and they've all had it too!!!! I knew it was a problem, but for everybody I know? Jesus tap-dancing christ! So now its poll time- to finally determine if more people get it than those lucky enough to avoid it.

The 360 is the worst peice of hardware on the market, I got a 360 Elite as well and it got the red ring, so they said I had to pay $150 to fix it because I had been a loyal customer for over a year, so they want me to pay for thir problems you fucking microsoft. So I bought a PS3, best decision I have ever made, it works great, has some awsome titles, and has free online.

Now I'm just saving up for the best console on earth, the PC, I have one but it's not good for gaming so I'm gunna get one specificaly for it, think about it, just about all exclusive titles are on the PC so you can get pracicaly every game on the market for it (except halo wars, but that game was to short anyways).

I knew that, I've just never seen it written "Ashes, ashes" and I also didn't see what it had to do with XBOXs.

What E63 or 79 or what ever the hell it was and it created the PROD (purple ring of death) that left untreated could infect your PC if it was attached to online, and it was made by some Jap living in his mothers basment, cuz I also got that and the RROD

 

[Uncompetative]

All I can say is...

Keep the box UPS return it to you in.

The Black Plauge was the original red ring of death because you would get a pimple (i think) with a red ring around it, and instead of killing your XBOX it kills YOU
