xbox 360

mustang kid 1989 · August 1st, 2007, 12:23 AM

ok so im planing on going and gettting a 360 either tomorrow or thu, but ive heard alot of bad stuff about the 360 crashing or locking up so now im having 2nd thoughts
whats the deal with the 3 red light thing, also i heard that the games tend to freeze alot like the original xbox
also if i do end up buying the 360 i cant decide on what game ncaa 08 or forza 2, ive never played forza 2 but i looked it up and crap and it looks so amazing, but i dont want to get a game thats gunna take me 20 hrs to get the cars i want(the mustangs mostly)
so basically whats the deal with the xboxs crashing or watever? has any1 had that happen to them?

im not big on this stuff anymore....i stopped playing when i started replacing controllers every week.....you should know how that ended up

microsoft extended the warranty on the xboxs for like 3 years or something so if it does get the red light thing then just send it back other than that i havent really heard instances of games freezing ...and forza ftw!

I haven't had any problems with mine. BattleField2 Gears of War!

never had a problem with mine.

ive had mine freeze, but it was because the disk was damaged. No problems with mine either. The old ones didnt have heatsinks in them and I assume caused them to over heat and meltdown. The new ones dont have that problem any more.

Never buy a first run of a new product until they work the monkeys out!

yea... xbox360 has a lot of problems.. the newer ones aren't as bad, and they have a longer warranty now... my 360 started giving error 71... and most errors u can plow threw holding down the control synchronization button while the system boots.

I'd get it

mustang kid 1989 · August 1st, 2007, 02:11 PM

ya im gunna get it, still worried about it crashing or watever but there is the free 3 yr microsoft warrenty so if it messes up ill just send it in, if the stupid ass mailman would hurry up and get here so i can go get my check
o and 1 more question, i already have xboxlive on my original xbox, can i just use that account on the 360? and is that a "silver" or a "gold" membership if it transfers?
