If you havent got the red ring of death yet you are lucky cause a new survey published stated the increse of the RROD. here are a few findings Console failure rate Xbox 360 – 54.2% Playstation 3 – 10.6% Wii – 6.8% Percentage of console owners who suffered a second hardware failure after the original repair. Xbox 360 – 41.2% Playstation 3 – 14.7% Wii – 11% Percentage of people who rate their customer service experience "very helpful" Nintendo – 56.1% Sony – 51.1% Microsoft – 37.7% Percentage of respondents whose friends have had console hardware failures. Xbox 360 – 69.9% Playstation 3 – 12.4% Wii – 6% The publisher also said why the wii has a low % rate is because most wii owners only play for an hour whilst the xbox 360 and PS3 owners play for 5 hours a day on a regular basis. |

I agree with the pervious post by Armysox99; the survey should have taken into consideration the make and model of the Xbox 360s that are failing. The older ones are notorious for the RROD, while the new Elite models with the Jasper chip are less likely (though not totally immune) to the RROD problem. |

Yeah, I agree. The failure rate needs to be split up between each model of the console, same for the PS3, not really for the Wii because there is only 1 model. This would give a much more accurate result. Me personally, I love the 360, but I don't like Microsoft and how they do things. |
