how strange only it seams all the people who complane about the 360 happen to own a ps3 and still go on about the rrod which is now as old as the queen of england, ive never had any problems with my 360 and the rrod isnt realy a machine killer its actually quite a good feature on a console what kind of warning system does the ps3/wii have (none) the red ring doesnt nessaceraly mean the 360 is dead it has lots of meanings, if you look them up on the web youll see theres more to the red ring than you think and in most cases there is always a solution before you considder sending your console off to be repaired, also recently (since the elete release) all 360's have a trip switch inside them so if you get the red ring and have to send your 360 off chances are youll get the same one back but cleaned up inside, weather the 360 is reliable or not it make no difference to the fact that apart from no blu-ray movie play back its still a good games console easily able to show the ps3 a thing or two about its power (and before all you ps3 fanboys start saying the 360 is holding back technology look at who makes the ps3 and think for a second they still support the ps2 and the psp both using dvd or lower storage formats than blu-ray think about it)

I have to admit the xbox 36O was the top console.. until I was let down by 2 new ones. what with the red ring of death and not being able to read discs! Totally unreliable 3rd generation console.

lol well then your lucky that your 360 as not broke and for the record never said the 360 was crap i own all 3 formats and think they all have there own merits ,as for backwards compatibility how many acutully play old games on your ps3s or 360s any way i know i never have. i am a big fan of the 360 and have played many hours on one i know what they can do but you can't escape the fact that they are unrealiable yes they have improved them but there is still a problem with them unfortunataly but i am sure they will get there in the end .
