Well I was playing Call Of Duty 4 : Modern Warfare for a bit with my party of 6. I was having tons of fun and then boom my screen gets lines and colors start to blur. I play for a little then I decide to turn it off and let it sit for a second. I turn it back on and the surround sound turns out booming with COD Sounds but now a blank screen is present on my plasma. I then try to use it on the Regular TV, and same results. Sound but no picture. I have done everything to keep this system cool (Elevated System, and Surge Protector Power Pack) All vents free for air. I tried everything (remove hard drive, unplug power, etc). Well I called Microsoft and the system is not even a year old (The Newer 360 with new heat sink), and they sent me a UPS Shipping Label. Well this sucks I have it all ready to send but looks like 3-4weeks for it to be back. I hope it doesn't take that long, I'm going to miss a lot of Live Experience. Far Cry 2, Fable 2, man this sucks. Anyone else have something similar happen.

I tried everything to make sure I would not be another 360 dead in the Stats. So don't think just because you have a newer one it won't take a crap on you.

Well that's what is up right now.

Yea I just bought another one today. I can not wait 3-4weeks. TV is too boring when you get home. So while its being repaired I have a brand new one waiting at home for me.

The elites brake also,they get the same problems,you just dont hear about as often.I have a pro and mine works perfect,I think it depends on which chipset you get.I use to read all the stuff on xbox live forums about it.

Where the green grass is
Look at this....I post in the 360 death thread and mine gets the RROD.....this is really rediculous....this will be my third one that has broken....As of right now i think Sony should be making the Xbox 360s....at least they would last more than a year...I call the customer support line and they tell me to call back in 24 to 48 hours....i call back today and he tells me to call back in two hours...I just sick of microsoft and thier stupid Xbox...
