why is it called 3 red rings? they're not rings, they're curves.

It's actually just RROD, no 3 before it. However it doesn't make a whole ring as there is a quarter missing, so you're kinda right

I guess we could call it the 3RQD...

Yeah I meant out of the 3 year warranty

Lets hope MS will change it to lifetime warranty to cover RROD

Had this happen to 3 seperate units, all on their own table with nothing even near them. unlucky to say the least. Dont own a 360 anymore

Mine died today too. Been working perfectly since April last year, started getting some drive errors where it would randomly eject the disc, or just sit there with the light flashing as if it wanted to eject but couldnt..and now.. its dead. Wouldn't mind getting a new one though, hopefully one with HDMI built in

Doubt it very much though.

3RROD? That's a myth.

"There are no 3RROD"

Lol this is the funniest thing I've seen all day.

Unlucky mate although I have read people saying the turn around is very good nowadays, sometimes only a week.

Welcome to the 'real men club'.
I dunno, all these boys with their launch day consoles that have never had a problem.
One day they will all lose their virginity and join us real men in the 3RROD (multiple times) club.
I'm on my third since Sept 06 so I consider myself to be an alpha-male in the world of the 360!
Oh wait, there are plenty of guys who have been through more than 3 x 360's.
Damn! That must make be a beta-male

Mine died last week, sent it off last Tuesday, they posted it back to me today... should have it tomorrow! Very quick turn around at the moment from what I hear. Would have been quicker if it hadn't arrived there last thing Friday.

Kemik · 8 Jul 2008 at 15:26

If you smash up the lights on your power switch, is it still possible to get 3RROD?

Pac3y · 8 Jul 2008 at 19:20

I'm on my fourth 360, they just love to die! Hardly play the damn thing anymore so I'm denying it from giving me the glorious fith rrod!
