How many Xbox 360s you had to buy because of RROD?

Well so far i bought 3 Xbox 360s 2 are wasted and 1 is currently working which is the MW2 Xbox 360.

**Viper221** · 24 Jan. 2010 12:13am

**Halogod** · 24 Jan. 2010 12:23am

Your extremely lucky my first 360 didn't even last 5 months...

**MattSmith** · 24 Jan. 2010 12:52am

Iv bought 1. Had for like 3 years and nothing wrong. (KNOCK ON WOOD. )

**Vin** · 24 Jan. 2010 01:14am

I only sent my 360 (Arcade Edition) to Microsoft once. ;P
It lasted a good year and a half before I had to.

**chowchig** · 24 Jan. 2010 01:16am

Btw you usually only get RROD when you have bad ventilation or something about humidity

Mine has been working ever since I bought it 2 1/2 years ago

Yea...i had my first 360 lying down on the carpet getting a lot of dust.. i guess that was what caused the first 360 to overheat faster and got the RROD eventually..

Maybe thats why my 1st elite got RROD
Its ventilation is bad thats why I bought a XCM Core Cooler V2 for Xbox 360 -Twin LED Fan's -

My xbox only has gotten the RROD one time.

I sent it off to microsoft...

So my answer is one.

**Rundeer** · 25 Jan. 2010 04:06am

Why would anybody buy another one instead of sending their old one in? That seems like a huge waste of money.

**takoyaki** · 25 Jan. 2010 08:47am

only bought 1, over a year and going, usually on my carpet or dresser

**Eli** · 25 Jan. 2010 09:03pm

I got 1 RROD, and it went away on its own

But I still have my first Xbox, got it like 2 years ago

**Tobi** · 26 Jan. 2010 05:01pm

I bought 2 one I kept on the carpet in my room it lasted me oh id say 2 and a half years then it got majorly overheated because I left town for about a month or so and sometime during that month my little sister decided to turn it on and leave it on.....when i got come the case started caving in as if there was a dent in it or something and all the inside metal pieces were burnt I think it could have easily started a house fire

now I have an 800$ xbox 360 lol

Yea...my 360 had the same fate as well it was at the carpet getting dust....plus i was playing everyday more than 13hours and got rrod eventually

**C0FFINCASE** · 26 Jan. 2010 10:08pm

1. Had for like 3-4 years now. Occasional freeze and have to rest, no rig as of yet. I bought on late enough though that I shouldn't ever get it. Considering I keep it on a shelf, dust regularly and don't pull 24 hour gaming marathons due to class and guitar I expect it will last for years.

I know... I even got the money for the warranty (They still are covering the console...) and the money for them to fix it as well...

30 Jan. 2010 10:56pm

LOL none. i fixed it with the Q-Tip trick ^_^

**╕ДτД∟** · 31 Jan. 2010 03:36am

**Pleasure Ninja** · 06 Feb. 2010 10:55pm

just got my xbox back from mircosoft about a week ago because of RROD.
But i think it was because i spent way too many hours straight on call of duty and fried all my internals. even towel trick wouldent work

**Vin** · 07 Feb. 2010 01:24am

I only had to send mine in once.

07 Feb. 2010 02:06am

had to send mine in once but they covered it free and i got a year of xb live free so its all good. although it did take them like 4 damn months to get it back to me..

**Stapled** · 07 Feb. 2010 02:50am

I have the same 360 i bought a year and a half ago

Iv'e never gotten the red ring

07 Feb. 2010 03:09am

most of the time if you just unplug it as soon as it does it it will fix itself. but sometimes it does get permanent. but mines only done it once thankfully. if it does it again im just sticking to ps3

**RobbyTheReaper** · 07 Feb. 2010 09:42am

Agreed.
Anyway, I've only had one 360. I've had nearly since release, and I've never gotten the RROD. I don't know whether to attribute this to good luck or divine intervention.

**Adam** · 10 Mar. 2010 08:23pm

I've never had RROD, Well Sort of I have 1 red ring glowing so I unplugged my console and re-plugged it back in and it started working I was Like THANK FUCK FOR THAT! Lol
