There is not enough :lol 's in the world to describe how happy I am that I won't have to deal with this shit ever again.

Actually i've never got a RROD, just my 3 xboxes have all had the same problem of the laser stop working.

How old is that system, Tieno?  If you don't have one of the newer models it might just be worthing buy a new arcade unit instead of getting your old one repaired.

Old, at least 2-3 years. Going to wait for a price drop or buy an arcade when I have enough money.

Well then it sucks for you. Do you have at least a DS or PSP to play something while being 360-less?
I have a PS3 :smug
I'm not in a gaming period atm so I don't mind besides the fucking money, mostly been using my ps3 for watching movies and stuff.

I had 2 Elites red-ring on me. I feel your pain. :'(

First one died while I was playing Third Strike; second one died while I was playing Rock Band 2.

It's part of life when you're a 360 owner.  Best to accept it and move on.

when mine went I just took it to a local modder and had him fix it for a few bucks in 20 minutes or so. works great, on the very rare occasion that I actually turn the paperweight on.

I haven't had any red ring yet (*knock on wood*), but I am on my third 360, as the first two would randomly reboot, somehow thinking I had tried to eject the disc... or something like that.

My 360 is still kicking. Of course, it was only born 7 months ago.

My 360 is 8 months old and the DVD drive no longer works consistently.

My 360 was manufactured 1/09 and may be a little quieter than my PS3.  :smug

My third 360 (an early model) has been going strong for ages now.
Although the tray generally refuses to eject unless there's a disk in it so I'm not totally missing out on the full Xbox360 experience. :rock

I may be talking out from my buttocks again, but the 3-year warranty is probably from the date of your most recent replacement. So if it RRoD'd before and it was repaired, the 3-year coverage is from the date of return after that repair. Can anyone confirm or deny?

I might have to make a call to get my DVD drive replaced for free.

If they won't do it, I'm just going to pitch the piece of shit.

Not sure why my DVD player went to shit on mine.  I don't use it that often.

I'm on my third 360 since launch. The first time they fixed it out of warranty (a little over a year after launch). They just replaced my 2nd RROD unit this week. I haven't had to pay a cent to ship/replace either of them.
