So yesterday some of my friends drop by at my house to play some games....we always enjoy playing Dead of Alive 4(Fighting game). I turn on my xbox360 and it ran fine. After playing a few rounds.....suddenly my x360 hanged!! i restart the system, and the next thing i knew....3 RED LIGHTS OF DEATH!!! for people who dont know what RROD, 3 red lights of death...it means my x360 is dead and will never start up again.  The worse thing is this is the second time my x360 got RROD...last time it cost me RM250 for repairs and it took 2 months to repair.....My advice to future console buyer....don't ever buy a x360. Buy a Ps3 or wii, it is much safer. I am not planning on spending another RM250 for repairs again..... At least i still have my PS3 to play....going to buy GTA4 soon too.

they say lightning never strikes twice in the same place. Well............... we can clearly see here RROD isn't obeying that rule.  Where's the Xbox defence force ?

The engineer should know about heat issue... so far, never heard PS3 got such problem. maybe thats the goodness of delaying the launch of PS3 last time. further improving b4 launched....

microsoft came out with a statement a while ago saying something like QUOTE by the time you finish installing GTA4 on the ps3,you could've *insert the many things you can do in GTA 4* on a 360 . supposedly sony responded to that statement with QUOTE by the time you get your 360 back from microsoft because of RROD,you could've already finished GTA 4 on the ps3

That is, provided you didn't buy the modded version. A little ironic if ppl buy xbox here mainly because it can play backup games. I just feel bad for xbox owners, especially those who didnt take any steps to prevent this from happening. I mean, can they get peace of mind while playing good games like GTA IV that make them want to play for hours, but yet at the back of their mind, they have to worry about it overheating ?

And only play for 3 hours max.

This is the exact reason why I'm not getting the 360 ever! Though it has the greatest game lineup now.
