My 360 has it  . I tried the towel trick and it didn't work, so since I don't want to take it apart and void my warranty, I'm without an Xbox for a few weeks. And it sucks because I JUST bought Psychonauts after two weeks of looking for it! Now I can't even play it!  |

Yeah haven't used my Xbox in a few months, thought I'd boot it up again cause I was about to get Mirror's Edge but the Rings put a stop to that plan. |

 But seriously, I feel for you guys. Welp, I'm off to play my PS3. BWAHAHAHAHAHA! Okay, I was facetious. I'm actually in the middle of playing Zelda for NES. |

And after Gears of War 2 and Call of Duty 5 were released ...  I'm almost of the mind if that ever happens to me, I'm thinking about buying the arcade model and just throwing my hard drive into it. |

As if you going to play your PS3 is at all a bragging point. So what are you going to go play? Resistance? LBP? Those are about the only games worth playing on your beloved PS3. Perhaps you'd enjoy a nice blu-ray film? |

This is the reason I own a PS3 and not a 360.
My friend works for a branch of Activision and has horror stories of how many 360s his office has been through and he refuses to own one with his own money. Its a poorly kept secret that MS half-assed the designing phase to beat the competition and released a system that's basically built to break, regardless of what chipset they use. It's just a poor architecture under the white plastic.
Nothing in the library really does it for me personally (I don't really play many FPS or shooters in general, so there's 80% of the exclusives gone) so I'll wait until they fix the problem or the XBox 720.

Well, PS3's got Metal Gear Solid 4........ But then again, I've got no right to talk, all I have is a Wii. |

This is why I never went to get a X Box 360. As much I love to play the Halo series and other games. It not worth spending the money on something that has a history of breaking. If they fix the problem then it would be different. As for as I know they haven't.

I mean at least I still have my Wii but there's not much that looks promising in the next few months at least to me.

They fixed this issue in the newer boxes.
So yeah. Sucks that you got the red ring man, but better now that it's under warranty then when it's not.
Besides, once you get it back from Microsoft, you shouldn't have the problem again.
