No Red Ring Of Death For My Launch Xbox 360 Console

Yep, that’s right. I still have my launch console with up to four green lights and I’ve never had a problem with it. How many others out there are like me?

Some anecdotal reports claimed the failure rate of launch systems to be in the range of 1/3. I have a hard time believing that, considering I’ve played on my launch system far far more than the average gamer.

Don’t believe me? Check out my Gamertag. I’m the one on the left.

I’ve got an Achievement points competition going between myself and this other seasoned gamer. I had about a 16000 point lead to start, but he’s catching up fast, as you can see.

    My Xbox 360 is also an original console that I had bought on launch day. I never had any problems with it until I had Halo Wars in it, then it started to flash the 3 evil lights at me. Now I figure I’ll buy an elite after a while. It had a decent run, just said since I’m an occasional gamer.

    Mine got the RRoD as well as 2 of my friends. There is no doubt it’s rampant.

    I had my console that I got from launch day till a few months ago, but now I’ve had to get two replacements. It’s weird, but I’ve gotten it replaced for free both times. :)
