Yep, my Xbox just got the Red Ring of Death. This really sucks. I was in the middle of playing MW2, and all of a sudden some rigid greyscale lines appeared down the center of the screen. I had no choice to power down the system. I then turned in on, and surely enough, the red ring had appeared. Too bad I don't have a backup system or something, because from what I've read it takes weeks for it to be repaired.
Also, hello to everyone! It's been a while..

Yeah, this is the reason I plan on never getting a 360. Most things worth owning on it are available on the PC anyway, so lack of one is no real loss for me. |

Happened to me last year, the red ring of death!
Not a welcome sight - especially if you have a new game to play. Mine took a week to be repaired. |

"The Red Ring of Death"...
Sounds like an old Kung-Fu film.
Nice to see you back, Flopperr.  _________________

You could also hire someone to unofficially fix it for you, but it voids your warranty. |

Whatever you do, DON'T send Microsoft your hard drive. Chances are you won't get it back. |
