Xbox 360: Worst gaming console? – report?
Red Ring of Failure
Is your Xbox 360 still working? You must be one of the lucky ones.
By Mike Smith
Over 18 million Xbox 360s have sold through since the console’s launch in November 2005, but just how many of those are still working? Squaretrade, a company that specializes in providing warranty support to purchasers of electronic goods from various manufacturers, claims 16% of Xbox 360s experience a hardware failure within six to ten months after a warranty purchase. Three out of every five failures were for the infamous “Red Ring of Death” general hardware failure error, a problem often linked to overheating.
The Xbox’s figures compare poorly to competing consoles, which have a failure rate of around 3% — and if anything, the Squaretrade figure underestimates the scale of the Xbox 360’s reliability issues.
Just another example that American-made products are inferior. Japs just do it better!
Microsoft doesn’t KNOW how to make a console working. I have lots of friends that have the 360 and they are really pissed off with it, because it always breaks down. I have some other friends that have the PS3, and they are very happy with it. I have a PS2 3 years now, and although I move it a lot, it is still good as new. SONY’s consoles are the best! Although, when it comes to computers, Microsoft knows best!
