This monring i bagged up my Xbox 360 and took it down to Gamestop and said take it and let me have store credit in return.

I was getting every error in the book with my 360. Red rings, freezing, please insert this disc into an xbox play it. You name is I have seen it. This is my second unit after Microsoft provided a new one when my first one went down with the Red Rings of Death.

Seriously for the money you spend on it the xbox just can't work? What is that? The box was a great system but the hardware defects were too much and ridiculous at this day and age of hardware for consoles.

Welcome back Sony missed you at my household!

Hit me on this thread if you feel me!

I did the same thing, except my 360 had gotten hardware failures way too much. I went through 7 Xbox 360s. I never had a problem with my previous systems (PS1, PS2, Xbox, GameCube, N64 ect.). I take really good care of my stuff and make sure their is no dust covering it or the fans, leave it in open space to get air. The hardware inside the 360 is just poor quality. I went with PS3 and I couldn't be happier, havn't had any problems and I play it about every day. Some thing I never did with my 360, I could never get into the games on there for some reason. It's not a terrible system by any means but it just wasn't for me I guess.

I've had a 360 die on me 3 times, but I'd never give it up for a PS3. Granted, I already have a PS3.

Same here, dumped my 3rd 360 and completely done with MS. My 3rd 360 was only 2 months old when I got rid of it, always smelled like it was ready to BURN and it continusally froze with any games I played. Very happy with the performance and reliabilty of my PS3 160 gig system. ;)

I used to own just the 360, it was ALMOST a launch system so I was worried about it breaking so I sold it to Gamestop and got a PS3. The I realized none of my friends had one so I sold the PS3 and got a new 360. Then my friends got PS3's and I missed alot of great games so I got another PS3. I now own both but prefer my PS3. I've learned my lesson, if you can own both....do so.
