  1. I had the RRoD 3-4 times. There’s nothing quite like the feeling of sitting down after a long work week, expecting to finally game with the boys, and power up to a black screen and red ring.

  2. I was 13 when this happened, and i seriously used the baking method with it working. I baked it in my oven for 5 minutes at 200 degrees. It still works today.

  3. I lost my halo 3 special edition console to the red ring. It has its own shrine on my shelf now but nothing will take away the pain. Then the 360 slim had the red dot of death and my pain only grew.

  4. Hey mate, you might want to consider putting an epilepsy warning on this video. The flashing at 18:30 is massively overkill and could very easily send people into a seizure. I love your videos and this is the first time I've had to call out an issue like this.

  5. Oh man, you're making me miss my GameFondler, man!
    Panasonic was the real sleeping giant back then.
    If it hadn't been for Atari's vicious campaign against them, Panasonic would've had Sony's lunch!!

  6. So many memories. I was an adult when the Xbox 360 came out. I remember the religious cult like care rituals that rose up around it. Did you place your xbox on it's narrow side? LMAO DUMBASS THAT'S HOW YOU GET SCRATCHED DISKS!. Always put your xbox 360 on it's low flat side and never touch it or you'll scratch the disks. I remember that scratched disks were such a huge problem for xbox 360's, that it changed the return policy of EB Games to start accepting returns on game disks, which they never did before.

  7. It is interesting it took them so long to admit that it was the lead free solder, there are articles from 2007 that speculate that as the cause and even narrow it down to the GPU.

    I personally had 5 different 360s over a course of a few years. The last one was an Arcade model and it never failed. I also lost a few games to the disc tray, it would eat them up.

  8. Bought me an Xbox, it died. 360 came out, bought one, it died.
    I was about done with MS hardware at that point. Got all the Nintendo, PS consoles, plus a decent PC where I can play MS titles anyway. But I will never ever buy another piece of hardware from them.

  9. My 360 was a real trooper. It was strong and healthy until a year or two after the Kinect released. At that point it developed a strange condition were it would no longer read discs. The remedy was to drum roll right above the disc tray with vigor while it was attempting to read the disc. And if it was being particularly stubborn, I would have to remove the face plate and do it bareback.

  10. My mate had a Xbox 360, it died after a beer night with oblivion, found out I could send it back to factory and get a better one. I was a ps2 guy, so I found all of the weird.m
    Edit:my 2003 Chucky ps2 is still my main ps2, the slims and special all die.
