Funny that someone should start such a thread........I just got the dreaded RED RING OF DEATH last night. Actually it happened the night before but after disconnecting all leads and hard drive and reconnecting and rebooting it worked. It is ironic that a friend said after the incident, "RROD this close to GTA IV day?! F**K me! You musta been s**ting yourself!" However last night it happened again and was unable to fix it..........so now GTA IV is just around the corner and no 360 to play on. What a bastard of a thing to happen! Good luck to all my fellow gamers.......may you avoid the RROD and enjoy GTA IV on launch day!
