rrod is the red ring of death which means your xbox360 no longer works. It happens to many xbox. Pretty much a hardware failure that cannot be prevented other than just not playing games. Microsoft usually fixes this for ?free? as long as the system has not been tampered

Exclusive games being on both systems is an oxymoron.

If im not mystaken, the new ones dont usually get the rrod.
But they (microsoft) fix them for free so (usually they even trade you for a new one in the store you bought them, at least here)

Didn't you say you had an Xbox 360 collecting dust in your closet cause it was a piece of crap?

Digital_Pheer · 12-07-2008, 10:34 PM

Got my xbox a year ago and it never got the RROD so the chances of you getting a RROD with a newer xbox360 model than mine is minimal

had my xbox since release and no RRoD here

go for it!

btw, this will turn into a huge flame war between 360 & PS3 fanboys

He always does it in other PS3/X360 threads, so I might as well start one in his.

I prefer getting the xbox 360 than ps3 because of what you said, ps3 games will also be available in xbox 360. But I suggest that you should look at the types of games in both ps3 and xbox 360, because that would determine what you should get. PS3 games are more on RPG games while Xbox 360 are on FPS such as Halo. I suggest you do your research so that you would buy the console that is right for you.
