my first 360 was fine up until a year after i got it what was wrong was it scratched my disk's and so i got a new one off my warranty this one sometimes makes weird noises like it sounds like the engine just stop's and sometimes i open the tray and the game is still spinning even if ive been on the dashboard for awhile but heres what I'm really mad about I'm playing halo 3(awesome game) and i go to the dashboard to do stuff i press play game it says cannot read i try again it sometimes does that because my old 360 scratched it up a bit give or take so ya i tried it again and it doesn't work so i open the tray look at the game it freaking cracked a small crack on the inside edge at one side and then like bassicly the same place only on the other side(not flip mirror) im so mad because the only other games i have are graw dead rising(broken but i hated it) rainbow six Vegas and saints row(love it but lent it to my friend and he broke it wont give a new one) so i don't really like rainbow on-line and haven't yet tried graw but its probably the same thing and all my friends play halo 3. but now heres my real question do i a)get a nother 360 off my warranty but they might be suspicious b)see if i can get new game off replacement thing c)just buy new game and maybe legendary edittionD)sell 360 for ps3

Just get a new one.

Microsoft will not get suspicios because they know a lot of 360s are breaking and they know people are sending in 360s more than 4 times. I also know people who sent in there 360s in like 6 times? and they never say anything about it..

if you still have warrenty just go get a new one, you paid lots of money for it and you should be able to play it..

you won't get the same 360.. MS changed the insides (smaller motherboard and better fans) of the 360 so it would stop the RROD and other problems people are having (you)

actually, according to their "elite team" (the repair specialists), the reapair centers are still using components from the original itteration of the 360. its kinda hit and miss apparantly.

ive gone through 3 360s in the past 2 and a half months. ive had all of 2 weeks of gameplay time. 2 RRoD 1 just stopped working entirely, just dead. no red ring.

if they were always replacing with newer components, I doubt id have gone through all this.
(granted im in canada, so I just got replacement units, but even still, It doesnt look like they were the newer chips.)
