In short the machines are shutting down a half hour after use due to over heating.
Microsoft sucks!
Don't belive me go to www.microsucks.com and learn the truth then go to www.apple.com and then buy one :thumbsup:
Just My Opinion.

Nuff said. Check out Best Buy's reaction to the known problems...
Make sure you check out the extended version :stoned:
try 10 minutes. my friend was the first one to get one of the $400 ones here in town because he reserved it so early. Bought 2 games, played for 10 minutes and it shut down for good. Called Micro and they said 6-8 day turn around time back to him. FUCKING SUCKS
that is so shitty...400 bucks for 10 min?! microsoft is raping every1Quote:

bought a gamecube a few years back wasnt impressed at all so i sold it and bought a new bubbler and an 1/8 <--brought me more joy than that peice of shit ever could, actually it wasnt the actual system just the only games for it were lame as hell
IT'S MICROSOFT!
actually everyone is raping microsoft...every xbox 360 the company sells they lose $139 why you ask...simple to shut down playstaion...plus that is pocket change to bill gates...and plus all new consols always have some problems its normal thats why they only released so many they knew there was going to be problemsQuote:

Silly Microsoft bashing. They are no longer an evil company. Don't you kids read the news?
TC: I love Apple products but I wouldn't buy one right now if my life depended on it. A $3299 quad 2.5ghz G5 sounds nice but not when it's -already- been made obsolete by the Intel architecture that will replace PPC next year.
wow i guess the xbox sitting right here next to me must be a super xbox 360 since i hasnt shut down yet. and it was purchased 12 hours after launch
Yes my friend has a 360, and Ive played it welll over 4 hours with no problems and hes played well over 12 hours and it is probably the best machine ever invented.
Ha ha ha! That's amazing. I'm not laughing at the people who got ripped off, just the situation.
ok so your freind has probably one of 10 that works fine. When the origonal xbox came out my friend and i both got ours at the same time. Both stopped working after 1 week. I'm gonna wait till ps3 comes out. the xbox360 will come down and Hopefully the glitches will be fixed.Quote:

This is exactly why I don't buy first generation consoles / PC hardware...
so only 10 xbox 360's work properly. riiiiiiight and ps3 will have virtual reality built into it.Quote:
