For those of you that do not know this is one of the top shows on UK standard TV which reveals the biggest scandals and chats about em.

If you can, put it on BBC1 right now, they talking about the freezing problems. Im glad this is getting exposure my first 360 went bust in 2 weeks and am sick and tired of fanboys accusing me of lying and claiming that this rarely happens and every fanboy claims to have 20 friends who each have a 360 and none had any problems. LIE! It happens to so many people.

EDIT: And my gamertag is conantheleader, I have 4500 gamerscore. Dont accuse me of being a fanboy cause a fanboy would not play a console they dislike for so much.

i don't really know how widespread the freezing problem is, but my first 360 froze after about 6 months. i got a new one for free and it has worked perfectly.

also i have 7 friends who also own xbox 360's and not one of them have had a problem.

i guess "some folks are lucky and some ain't"

Sadly, it IS widespread. It's something Microsoft need to admit. Mine has broken down twice. I know four people who also own one, and three of those four have had to send it off for repair - the other hasn't had any problems, one of the three who did has had the red lights three times now. Never in my life have i had to return a console for repair, or known anybody who has. To have a console now which has been repaired TWICE, and know so many others who've had the same issue... that's a problem, and microsoft dont want to admit it. It's sad, because the 360 IS the best console on the market right now. But the build quality is the biggest factor in people's reluctance to get one, which is such a u-turn for microsoft.

To be fair; 360s purchased now are more or less bug-free. The problem is, there are around 5 million out there bought in the first six months which really need to be recalled.

Are they still using china to build the thing? If so, that could be the problem right there. Cheap labor == cheap product.

Agreed. Oh and beyondgamez, Sony has a suck arse track record too. Alot of DRE like my system could not be fixed by a pen and turning the gear.

I love my Xbox 360 also. But I have had to return it twice to Microsoft for "repairs". Sure it didn't cost me anything but it is an incovenience. I also have 2 friends that play 360 and they have both had their systems breakdown as well. To be fair to MS they were all manufactured in 2005 so they are "launch" consoles. But those are out of MS warranty now so it could end up costing $140 for repairs and that is bogus.

someone text in and claimed to be on their 9th 360! now come on that is user problems not the 360 you cant have 8 consoles in a row go wrong.

Im not a fanboy but I do know a lot of people that have had no problems. the problem had reached its peak a few months ago now funny how they choose to bring this story up a month before the ps3 is released, ooohhh maybe it is a conspiracy LOL!

MS admitted that their system was faulty, that's why they changed their warranty from 3 to 12 months.  what sucks is that more than a year later, people are still experiencing problems.  now that's ridiculous!

I just dont see how 8 consoles in a row could all be faulty thats even if that person even has one it was just a text to a tv show could have been some stupid kid.

It sucks that your 360 had problems.  My launch system is still humming along along with my humble gamerscore.  Perhaps I am blessed by the MS Gods.  Who knows?

Yup, the 360 has a lot of problems. Luckily me nor any of my friends have had them.

But I've told everyone who does have one to keep the thing under warranty!

A lot of 360 owners were unhappy with the defect rate of the 360. Its not a fanboy statement to say something about it.

You could do this, but it would spark another PS3 one and then we'd just be right back where we are:  nowhere.

My 360 used to freeze up on me all the time when I was playing Gears o lot.Thank god that game had a autosave feature. Dont play my 360 that much anymore but I'm still getting the occasianal freeze up when I play demo's and arcade games. Might just trade it in towards a PS3 in March and get a new one when Halo3 comes out.

Oh god, I never watch Watchdog.
Half the time it's just old woman talking about how they got scammed by some builder, this just seems like a viewer grabbing story to me, tell me how it concludes considering MS has fantastic customer service I don't see the problem.

... But what about all the people who've had a 360 since launch like me.... who have had ZERO problems. I know you mentioned "blah blah + your 20 friends who don't have problems" but actually like 12 of my friends have 360s and none of them had issues either...

It's not the BBC. It's real people who phone in and complain. If they get a certain number of complaints, they investigate the problem. I cant wait to see your view u-turn when your 360 breaks; because it's only a matter of time.

Er, hardly. They were both flops by tiny margins; a FLOP of thread-worthy scale is Brute Force, or Killzone. And problems with 360s aren't an issue any more. It's only the launch systems and a few shipments which followed. Dont exaggerate things.

Im glad this is getting exposure my first 360 went bust in 2 weeks and am sick and tired of fanboys accusing me of lying and claiming that this rarely happens and every fanboy claims to have 20 friends who each have a 360 and none had any problems. LIE! It happens to so many people.

EDIT: And my gamertag is conantheleader, I have 4500 gamerscore. Dont accuse me of being a fanboy cause a fanboy would not play a console they dislike for so much.

Props to you for complaining..its look like most of the lemmings worship microsoft with all their heart..and dont see what microsoft is doin is wrong..can you called it brainwash?..People need to stand up and say this is a a big problem..and microsoft need to fixed all the freaken bugs already..Even now people is still having problems with it..Lemming dont stand up for themself and microsoft will continue to put out crap system..all they talk about is how the customer service was so good...lol..When sony ps3 have problems with bc they were quick with update to fix it..

To be fair; 360s purchased now are more or less bug-free. The problem is, there are around 5 million out there bought in the first six months which really need to be recalled.

November 06 is pretty new yet my first 360 3 red lighted me December 26 of the same year, 1 day after I got it. My new 360 which is not a refurb DRE's me every few hours or so without fail. From personal experience I would say the bugs have not been fixed. Also make note that my 360 is out in the open with PLENTY of breathing room.

For those of you that do not know this is one of the top shows on UK standard TV which reveals the biggest scandals and chats about em.

If you can, put it on BBC1 right now, they talking about the freezing problems.

I've also heard of a couple of folks whose christmas contained three too many blinking red lights. And I'm fairly sure my replacement unit is gonna crap out on me eventually. Has frozen on me a couple of times in various games. Which is the same way my old 360 began its short life. Don't know if it's a refurb though. How can you tell anyway? Got it in September, manufactured two months earlier. Had those plastic stickers on it.

[QUOTE="gsx1100"]My 360 used to freeze up on me all the time when I was playing Gears o lot.Thank god that game had a autosave feature. Dont play my 360 that much anymore but I'm still getting the occasianal freeze up when I play demo's and arcade games. Might just trade it in towards a PS3 in March and get a new one when Halo3 comes out.neogeo419

I remember Rob off Youtube telling us about this in one of his latest videos. For anyone who is confused, Rob is this middle aged londoner who has had 5 360s or sumthing and all of them have broken on him.

I must be the luckiest person in the whole world. I am still on my first 360... Not 1 issue. I should start playing the lottery.

3%-5% remember that. Not 50%-80%. :lol:
