Not mine but will be soon :lol:

I know it seems like all i do is bitch about how bad the 360 is but is it any wonder?
I rented need for speed carbon and about an hour into teh game i experienced my first crash. The game froze on a loading screen (how annoying). I left it for about 10 minutes as i was quite fed up with it and then went back to it. Half an hour later the damn thing done it again.

Does anyone experience this or is it just me? I have had 3 consoles now and they have all done the same  from day 1 please dont tell me i have yet another faulty one :(

Some 360's freeze on certain games and its the games fault not your 360. Mine freezes on PGR3 still but hasn't on any other...well on Halo2 once but that was months ago and I play H2 like crazy on it no probs. Does it freeze on other games?

Mine freezes on every game so far the only game it hasnt frozen on is GOW. It seems whenever i recieve a message or notification that someone is online it cant handle it.

Mine worked fine until hit by lightening, but god does have a way with electronics and high voltage... I have two, and I've tested three, all have been flawless. I had a few lockups but I had that on the NES too, not a big deal. Nothing consistent. You're house hot?

My house isnt hot i hate heat lol. Its not just the game its happened t onearly every single game i have had for the 360 and i know one person who is having similar problems. It usually only crashes when someone sends me a message, game invite or chat invite seems to overload the console?

Seems like lotsa problems w/360, but hey you can fix um with duct tape! For more in depth work you might have to whip out the tool kit (butter knife & nut cracker). Just remember my words of wisdom oh young weedhopper: A crossthread is better than two lock washers. Sensei, Wang Chung Rivuh.

I think the one above may just have passed the duct tape stage :lol: Ossu Sensei :)

Usually in my line of work a new piston return spring or hi-compression dome lite works wonders! Check at Amazon.com their next to the non-ferrous magnets:)

I sound like a broken record but...stupid move by MS putting it in that little case. Thing generates way, way more heat than the original Xbox yet the case is about the same size. Make sense? Ofcoarse not.

I know what you mean but the 360 isnt the only one having issues the Wii and PS3 are so will be good to see how they all compare with sorting the issues out. Customer care cant get any worse than i have had with MS i had an advisor tell me i had to call back because she couldnt understand me even when i spelled my name phoneticaly I for India A for Apple N for November and so on. Then another one told me that because they were based in India they didnt have to abide our laws and i could do whatever i liked. Two different advisors stated that they didnt have the technology to transfer me to a manager now bearing in mind this is all in the same day :lol:
