I saw something about this on the scroll on CNN about 10 minutes ago, but I didn't see the entire thing and couldn't find any information on the internet yet. God knows how long it takes the scroll to actually get back to something you want to read!!! What did you hear about the investigation?

I'm trying to find out a little more information about it. Apparently there is a class action lawsuit regarding the faulty 360's. Looks like Microsoft buried it pretty quickly. I work in a Senator's office, so I'm making some calls to see what I can find out. I love having "sources" lol

From what I rounded up, it has something to do with this Xbox Live refund email thats going around, the email is legit, says so on Major Nelson. So my best guess is, this refund is a settlement of some sort.

Yeah, apparently that watch groups investigation is trying to start up a class action lawsuit. It's pretty hard to find information on exactly what is going on at this point

I think it sucks. Mine went faulty but it doesn't matter because they gave me a new one FOR FREE and a FREE 1 YEAR WARRANTY. That sounds like good customer service.

Nonsense. The "watch group" is a TV show called watchdog which exposes stuff like crap businesses and stuff you shouldn't buy.

Ah, flaming. What a way to prove maturity.

One person said a "watch group" in the UK had investigated the 360's hardware. Right?

YOU then said that that very watch group was not trying to start up a forbidden>

Its doesn't really matter who said what when and to whom nor how they said it, the fact is someone is "investigating" gamers complaints.
