Carbinedevil Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 The first products are always defective, you ought to know that lol. Products after a certain period are better as the product had gone through many fixes and blah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ford_rule Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 what do you expect? its an xbox, they rushed to beat the ps3 and suffered for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 MS always rush out their products, thats why where are always so many patches and fixes for their software in the first few months of release. Unattainable deadlines were placed on the factories and unfortunatly the quality has been lowered in order to produce more quantity. Without decent quality control these kinds of things happen. MS should not have released for the christmas market, by trying to get in early to beat the PS3 and Revolution they have unfortunatly got themselves in a big whole.

I recently reformatted my HDD and installed my XP CD, and it says my CD is pirated. Woo hoo! No more automatic updates! :roll: Thank god for Firefox. I don't know what I'd do without it.

sigjicu0 Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 alot of problems it seems is the cooling of the unit... i think MS should have put a heat sink and fan for every CPU ... cause really think about it... 3 CPU's each clocked at 3.2 Ghz a GPU and 512 Mb of Ram all stuck in a little box with only 1 fan... well i am just glad i am getting mine at Christmas and all the bugs should be out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mercifull Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 well i am just glad i am getting mine at Christmas and all the bugs should be out Good luck! lol, i doubt a 2nd gen will come out for another 6 months. You're best bet now is just to keep it all ventilated. Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.

abyssalreaper Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 Hahahahaha Sony is better! But what did you expect they did a rush job so of course there would be deffects. Didn't the same thing happen with the PS2 and the Xbox when it first came out? Proud Acolyte of the Ooc Cmon Steve you can do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hhaha Sony is better, but their ps2 had more complaints about disc read errors than stupid statements made by you! :roll: My 360 is working just fine and I plan on keeping it that way.

cadburys_egg Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 what do you expect? its an xbox, they rushed to beat the ps3 and suffered for it. My sentiments exactly. People couldve waited a month later after a few more testings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Faux Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 *put an owned smiley here* That's why you don't rush for something that just came out :?

VOV Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 The first products are always defective, you ought to know that lol. Yep, it happens quite often. My friend bought a first-gen PS2 and after three months he was no longer able to play any sort of DVD on it. I know the price. I pay it gladly.

sigjicu0 Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 MS kinda rushed but Sony isnt taking their time either.. they just want to put blu-ray into the Ps3 which will take forever and cost alot more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G3N3R1C Posted November 24, 2005 Share Posted November 24, 2005 agreed. the system does have many problems and i am disappointed because i am an xbox user. i am not going to even think about buying one until the price drops and the problems are fixed. like someone said, they rushed and lost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee you <.00005% are defective. You notice it because the people that have defective ones are posting. No one else is going "mine works great and im going to make a topic about it."

No. This is a very complex system and it's stupid for anyone to expect there not to be any problems. Granted, if mine were messed up I would be frustrated,angry, cussing too. But, my point is that for the sheer amount of units they've sold and the complexity of the console I think they've done a pretty good job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Augsback Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 Nothing is perfect thats why everybody has defects when the first product is put out. I can bet you tho that the Sony PS3 will have a flaw with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sk8erfreak Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 The ps2 had just as many complaints when it first came out 300 out of millions? No. There arent millions of xbox 360s sold yet... and 300 is just a number someone pulled out of their "behind" Just because people don't waste time whining on forums, doesn't mean they don't have a defective xbox. 136 Combat, 2290+ Skill Total Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
