:mad: :mad: :mad: ball cocks!:yell1: :yell1:

just been playing f.e.a.r. and my 360 crashed so I reset it and the 3 red lights come on, nooooooooooo! this is my bleedin third 360 already! looks like its kaput theres no life at all, checked power supply sand all connections but no joy....

has anyone else suffered the same fate with f.e.a.r...???

360 been fine for the past 6 months, played this game for past few days and thats it!

and my original xbox has died an all, no gaming at all till i get somats sorted out, supose i could plug my spectrum +2A in and have a bit of robocop!

Cheers

ha ha, dont think i'll risk that looks well dodgy...

have rung Microsoft and they are going to arrange for a full refund once they have tested the machine, I told em no way did I want another effing 360 when Ive had so much bad luck with 4 already...

thing is, theyre a bit cheaper than when I got mine, so i'll prob make about £100 or so on what they cost now, might just go buy another once the money comes through... only might though, at least it'll have twelve months warranty again.

then again, should I wait for the ones with better chips/cooling etc come out?

or do I go to the dark side...
