I would be, too! Good luck to you.

As you may have noticed, we're dealing with a problem of our own with an XBOX 360 that just went out of warranty.

yeah i can only imagine how pissed you would be having your 360 stuff up after warranty

this 2nd break down of my 360 has left a very bitter taste in my mouth.....
so much so that the purchase of a certain other $1000 console has passed my mind....

You could buy a Nintendo Game Cube or Playstation 2 to tide you over...

Too bad it broke. I hate spending a lot on something and then having it break. Then, you don't even know if they use new parts or refurbished or what not, and by the time your warranty expires, you're screwed.

Hang in there, man. Too bad you can't work some kind of exchange where you turn in your Xbox and get another console with the credit.

Actually 1000 dollars is around 510 pounds mate, I think you got the conversion the wrong way around in your head

I'm having Xbox problems of my own... But so far, my second unit is hanging on and hopefully, it'll live... Actually come to think of it, my most robust console was teh N64 and Sega Gensis...

My PS2 died halfway through it's life... I've already changed Xbox 360 after having one for just 4 weeks...

ive never had a problem with any nintendo console ive owned (and thats all of em from the NES > ....havent got wii yet)

ive had a PS1 break down, ps2 stop playing them games on the purple discs (but still work with dvd games, go figure) xbox1 break down and now my xbox360 twice

but saying that, the sony customer service was non existant, the xbox support has been good for both systems.
