So far just in my little circle of life i've come across 2 people with 360's that are basically unplayable because of the constant freeze up's since the new dashboard was downloaded.

Before you try and blame it on old hardware, both 360's were manufactured and bought in 2008 and one is a 60 Gig Pro system and the other is a 360 Elite, and both of them were working perfectly with every game, until the dashboard update.

While it's true that the percentage of problems, right now, is less than the one's without problems, Microsoft was contacted by both parties and the customer service rep's refused to admit that the problem was with the new dashboard, and they also confirmed that it was unremovable.

Well i'll give you 3 guesses what 360 owner's end result was, or should i say PS3 guesses, thats right they both got so fed up with 360 RROD and freeze up issues that they switched to PS3, and my question is why did Microsoft do this to themselves ?, did they feel threatened by PS3's Home or Nintendo's Mii's, i mean they were gaining ground and now there getting flooded with calls about this latest headache for 360 owners.

I guess it wouldn't be so bad if they actually admitted to it and said that they were working on a patch to fix the problem, but there not even doing that yet.

I have had a few minor freezes, always fixed by hitting the guide button. Not even a minor inconvenience to me. Sucks for your friends if you are not lying, but oh well.

typical lemming ignorant point of view... everyones out to get the 360 and make it look bad right???

I speak the truth.  Is that an ignorant point of view?  Okey-dokey.

Truth = I know 120 or so people with an xbox

Truth = Some have had RROD problems.  Some more than once

Truth = I have not heard any of those 120 people report an RROD problem in some time (hmmm, now that I think about it, this is very interesting)

Truth = Not one of those 120 people have reported problems with the new dashboard (or problems to their consoles as a result of the new dashboard)

Truth = Some  fanboys make up stories

Truth = The 360 is doing great...no reason to make up stories.  The PS3 is not doing great...many reasons for fanboys of that console to make up stories

Truth = The only place were I've seen numerous posts where it is claimed that the new dashboard bricked a 360 is here on SW 

Truth = RROD is the current flavor of the week for most cows...I lost count of how many threads had RROD in the title .

 

Like I said, sounds like a cow propaganda campaign to me.

Well I haven't had a problem with the new dashboard update. None of my friends have had a problem with it either. I think 2 of my friends have gotten the RROD on my list and my list is pretty decent so that isn't bad at all.

same could be said for your statements. and the ps3 is doing great in case you havent noticed. all the threads with rrod in the title are there probably because its true and their having problems because of it, please stop being so naive and thinking that it happens to no one and is made up to make the 360 look bad.

not everyone is true thats obvious but to think that they are all false in an attempt to make the 360 look bad and that the rrod doesnt exist anymore is naive and by your logic the same thinking that you accused me of which is naive.

I'm sure you'll dismiss this as a fanboy response, but i'm just being honest, i have never had one problem with a PS3 update or game freezes, and i can't say the same for the 360's i used to own. It has nothing to do with liking one above the other, but it's always been my opinion that the japanese make better electronic components than we do whether it's game consoles ,TV's, DVD players, Stereos, what ever, i've always preferred japanese components and i always will, they've just proven more reliable. I wish it was the other way around but it's not.

What is the point of mentioning RROD every day? Cows have went from looking bitter, to flatout threatened by the 360's success. Cows will just not let up on this. I mean, the whole, "10 of my friends had went through 9 360s in one day, and finally switched to the PS3" story is way over done, and old. What does it mean to us anyways? Absolutly nothing. Especially when it comes from a SW poster with the name PS3nut.

And what's with all this crap about NXE being broken? Everyone had freezing issues on the first day, because MS's servers were getting slammed. The freezing issues went away the very next day. How come cows aren't compairing this to the fact that PS3's 2.4 firmware bricked many PS3's, and Sony had to pull the update? Compaired to that, the NXE update went smooth.

If the Japanese were so much better than us at making electronics, The PSOne wouldn't have had the optical lens problems it did. The PS2 wouldn't have had the DRE problems. How about the thousands of electronic devices that are returned to Wal Mart every day because they break down in a week? ALL electronics have problems. Don't act like MS invented faulty hardware.

 and the ps3 is doing great in case you havent noticed. desyple

Really?  Didn't you notice the last NPD numbers.  Didn't you  notice that the PS3 is starting to lose ground in Europe?  Did you not notice that the PS3 is in third place?   Didn't you notice that PS3 games are not selling very well?   Didn't you notice that going from a dominant first place to the laughing stock of the gaming world is not doing great?


No, you didn't notice, did you?

 

You should pay more attention.   Better yet, join the misinformation campaign cows are waging as a last ditch attempt to save their beloved console.

I also have had zero problems, no freezes, everything is functioning properly... So I think PS3 nut is trying to bloat hardware failure rates...

why would i say RROD is dead? i got it the day Gears 2 came out. what im saying is me and MY circle of friends havent had issues with NXE. and the fact is anyone can claim they got the RROD and there is no way to prove it unless you take pics. and all electronics can break. they used to have something called "appliance repairmen" back in the days it used to happen so much.

First of all if any console is the laughing stock of the gaming world it's the Wii regardless of sales, it is the joke of the industry with it's obsolete hardware and endless shovelware cluttering store shelves. Second of all how many successful franchises does the 360 have ? Halo - Mass Effect - Gears, PGR, Banjo Kazooie . To PS3's Resistance, Socom, Ratchet & Clank T.O.D, God of War 3, GT-5, Little Big Planet, Warhawk, Motorstorm, Heavenly Sword, Untold Legends, Uncharted Drakes Fortune, MLB The Show 08 and more. The bottom line is the PC and the 360 share game titles between them so if you don't have a 360 you can almost definitely get what you want on your PC, but the PS3 has exclusives that neither the 360 or the PC will ever see.

Use a search engine.  BTW, you won't like what you will find (and what you will find when they release the latest NPD numbers, you'll like even less).

Uh, yeah....we hope. 

But how would you know? Even M$ doesn't know what the future holds, we can HOPE for the future. For the past month, you said RROD is dead, now you are saying M$ learned their lesson. You don't work for M$, do you? Your posting habits are apologetic in nature.

Has NXE affected anyone you know? Have you seen an RROD before, in real life? I'm thinking you have, at least once, if not more.

I truly hope RROD is gone FOREVER (I just got a new 360, after having RROD 3 times), but I am not going to apologize for M$, it's their fault for letting that thing gets so hot, and it's the only console that has a HUGE powerbrick to keep the heat out, but that didn't work.

I didn't want to wait for M$. I wrote an amazing letter to President Elect Obama about The RROD (that's right, The RROD, it's beyond RROD, it's The RROD now), so you may be right, next gen will be different. I wrote Bush, but Presdient Bush never responded to my letters of "The RROD", so McCain lost my vote, due to Bush representing Republican's.

I voted for CHANGE, and Obama will eliminate through diplomacy "The RROD" and eradicate Skynet while he's at it.

Really?  Didn't you notice the last NPD numbers.  Didn't you  notice that the PS3 is starting to lose ground in Europe?  Did you not notice that the PS3 is in third place?   Didn't you notice that PS3 games are not selling very well?   Didn't you notice that going from a dominant first place to the laughing stock of the gaming world is not doing great?


No, you didn't notice, did you?

 

You should pay more attention.   Better yet, join the misinformation campaign cows are waging as a last ditch attempt to save their beloved console.  

 

Scream RROD at the top of your lungs...maybe someone will listen.

ive been looking for the sales numbers on npd but couldnt find them please provide a link to back up your claims.

Use a search engine.  BTW, you won't like what you will find (and what you will find when they release the latest NPD numbers, you'll like even less). 

you honestly think i didnt try that i still couldnt find the info you were claiming , so provide a link to support you claims or else your lying like a typical lemming. after all these are your claims not mine.btw i found the site not the info.

[QUOTE="Pimpshigity21"][QUOTE="desyple"] typical lemming ignorant point of view... everyones out to get the 360 and make it look bad right???desyple

 

I speak the truth.  Is that an ignorant point of view?  Okey-dokey.

Truth = I know 120 or so people with an xbox

Truth = Some have had RROD problems.  Some more than once

Truth = I have not heard any of those 120 people report an RROD problem in some time (hmmm, now that I think about it, this is very interesting)

Truth = Not one of those 120 people have reported problems with the new dashboard (or problems to their consoles as a result of the new dashboard)

Truth = Some  fanboys make up stories

Truth = The 360 is doing great...no reason to make up stories.  The PS3 is not doing great...many reasons for fanboys of that console to make up stories

Truth = The only place were I've seen numerous posts where it is claimed that the new dashboard bricked a 360 is here on SW 

Truth = RROD is the current flavor of the week for most cows...I lost count of how many threads had RROD in the title .

 

Like I said, sounds like a cow propaganda campaign to me.  

 

same could be said for your statements. and the ps3 is doing great in case you havent noticed. all the threads with rrod in the title are there probably because its true and their having problems because of it, please stop being so naive and thinking that it happens to no one and is made up to make the 360 look bad.

:roll: what you basically just did was say what you can do i can do better you used the exact same statement he did to nullify his statement and it didn't work, yes those stories could be real but what proof is there that they are? any at all? yet most of the time RROD threads are proven false easily like this one, The TC's name is PS3nut? hes not exactly pro microsoft on this site...so what reason do we have to believe him?  I have a simple way to prove that RROD was never as big as it was claimed by any side, American government have certain buisness standards in that a product cannot go past a certain defect rate before a forced recall is enforced we've yet to see a forced recall on the 360.

So far just in my little circle of life i've come across 2 people with 360's that are basically unplayable because of the constant freeze up's since the new dashboard was downloaded.

Pimpshigity21

I have 100 people on my friend's list...plus another 20 or so guys in my real world cricle of life...and none have had any problems. 

 

Sounds like a cow propaganda campaign to me.  

Please, your a notorious Lemming, even if it happened to you and every single person you know who owns a 360 you would still say otherwise.

I remember when I was naive. Then I got corrupted data. Had to format my PS3. You people need to realize that just because this crap isnt happening to you doesn't mean its not a problem. BTW: Does anyone wish they left the old 360 dashboard. I HATE the new one. Cant navigate it, looks bad ect. Just curious.

First of all if any console is the laughing stock of the gaming world it's the Wii regardless of sales, it is the joke of the industry with it's obsolete hardware and endless shovelware cluttering store shelves. Second of all how many successful franchises does the 360 have ? Halo - Mass Effect - Gears, PGR, Banjo Kazooie . To PS3's Resistance, Socom, Ratchet & Clank T.O.D, God of War 3, GT-5, Little Big Planet, Warhawk, Motorstorm, Heavenly Sword, Untold Legends, Uncharted Drakes Fortune, MLB The Show 08 and more. The bottom line is the PC and the 360 share game titles between them so if you don't have a 360 you can almost definitely get what you want on your PC, but the PS3 has exclusives that neither the 360 or the PC will ever see.

You listed Untold Legends as a successful franchise? :lol: You listed a lot of flops on the PS3 side, my friend. And do you really expect me to believe that every cow in the world has a PC that will handle 360/PC exclusive games? :lol:

Like I said, there is no reason to lie if you are a Lemming.  Things are just dandy in the 360 world.

If anything, I have mentioned many times before that I got an RROD...and that many of my friends got one too. 

 

Sorry cows, as much as you would want this to be true, its simply just not the case.   You can shout RROD all you want, but apparently consumers are chosing the 360 over the PS3 (yes, even in Europe). 

 

Hey, look at the bright side...you all will have a terrific movie player when it is all said and done.

 

C'e la vie, mon amie.

"PS3nut"

hmm that is totally not suspicious.

But anyways the dashboard is fine i got 1 freeze in total and that may of been due because i left my system on unattended for like 4 hours.

 The NXE is perfect. IMO

No, MS learned that people will buy crappy cheap hardware that hasnt been tested right last gen when they saw what happened with the PS2. 

 

Sony, on the other hand, forgot everything they learned last gen and then tried to sell a console that was chuck-full of useless features that gamers did not want and could not afford.

Are you saying that the PS2 problems did not happen?  You tell your boss that you are not fimly in touch with reality. 

 

Or are you talking about the features the PS3 offers that are not needed for gaming?  Maybe you are talking about the price of the PS3?  I don't really know what you talking about, to tell you the truth. 

 

I know nothing of consoles of video games?  LMFAO.  I know enough not to buy an overpriced console with no games and then play the waiting game for more than two years.  

 

Do tell us, what games have you not bought for your PS3 lately?
