Posted Fault. My first one died. But my current one is fine.

I had memory E74 issues. I got it on release day and it crashed every 45 min for the first 9 hour then died all together. Got a new one 10 days later and have been more than happy with it ever since.

They have both been core's BTW

Surely those results are skewed? If they're true then that is absolutely crazy!

Well, unless people are been dishonest, but I don't think any member on this board is of that kind of nature, it's a pretty mature collection of people.
 
Its over 20% already.

On this board, that doesn't mean anything. Compared to the general public, large numbers of people here with xbox 360's - but at the same time, compared to the total number of 360 sold we're a tiny, tiny number. I can see what this poll is trying to achive but it's pretty hopeless tbh.
 
Well ive just got the official 360 magazine, and i had to apply an update before i could use the disc, so prepare for me coming back soon saying mines gone **** up after the update. :(

The Poll is giving us an indication of how bad the 360 is, 18 machines so far, that is bad, you would'nt get that many graphics cards going down just after release, can't say OcUK would be too happy having 18 cards RMA'd, they'd be asking some questions, and probably get rid of that brand, and this Poll is just members here, take into account all those who are not members, and who have posted elsewhere about faulty 360's, i think combined were looking at hundreds. :(

Just because every person who bought an Xbox360 isn't voting in this poll doesn't mean it's not a good indicator. It's a decent enough sample and I can't see how the 360s here are any different to others.
 
fine here, i do have to say those that hate the xbox 360 are able to vote no 2. which does kill the whole point to this but i reckon there will be a lot more working fine than problematic.
also how the heck did a console get made in 1st october!?! does that imply that MS we're producing since then to the launch dates?

Well if mine does go **** up, Oops sorry i mean WHEN it goes **** up, im not getting a replacement, im going for a refund, and will just wait till they sort the things out.

How do you go about your daily business being as pessimistic as that? Careful, don't cross any roads, not even if the little green man is showing - a car might run a red light!

Correction: a car will run a red light and procede to mow you down. :p

MS were producing 360's months before release to ensure they had enough for release. They didn't though :p
