• Warranty seller SquareTrade, sampling from a pool of over 1,000 claims, says that it's seeing an Xbox 360 failure rate at around 16 percent. Most Xbox 360 owners -- at least the early adopters -- don't just fear the RRoD(the red dot flashing indicatoing something is wrong), they've come to expect it


• compared to projected failure rates of 3% for the Wii and PS3 it's obvious that this continues to be a spendy problem for Microsoft and a headache for its customers.


• with the release of more and more games,the XBOX 360 will be used more,with games such as CoD4 on ther market the consoles will be played until they melt!
