Default My 360 went belly up...

So I went to play my Forza II game, and the screen froze, then the power button started flashing red. I thought I'd get through the 13th without a problem. The customer support was very good, though, and it is covered under warranty...just sucks to have a new game I can't play for a month!

They said it was a hardware failure...that was all the detail I got. Yeah, something is up because they just extended the warranty another two years.

...are yourefering tomy little cheating picture? I hope you know it was a joke! Anyway, I am sold on the 360 because, in my opinion, they have the best variety of games. I'm a huge Tom Clancy fan, and I think those games originate on the Xbox...don't they?

okay my brother in law lives with me, so we have 2 360's cause im taking mine with me to kansas city in a month when i move. im on number 8 and 9 for 360's! Ive sent mine back3 times and his 4! IM SERIOUS! ive had countless games destroyed by the infamous "hardware failure".I called them the last time it screwed up and they offered to replace a diffrent game than what it ate. i almost killed the lady through the phone, darth vader style. but theyve both acted right for the past 6 months or so, so im almost ready to forgive them, especially since they say it takes a couple weeks to fix them, but i live near the repair center so it only takes a couple days to get it back
