RROD Club

I am finally a member of the RROD club! I've had my 360 since around the time they first came out. Bought it for super cheap from the back of a truck so I'm impressed it only RROD'd now. Good news is: I never played it and was looking to mod it anyways and I also found out like a couple hours ago that a good friend of my brothers buys broken 360's and then fixes and mods them and will help me with that. In any case it's the end of an era. An era in which my 360 was on for 2 days straight during a guitar hero party. An era in which I exchanged GH2 for another copy because some jerk knocked the system over while the disc was in the system, and when I returned it I played dumb like I don't know how discs work or why it would've 'just stopped working.' And an era where almost all the games I bought were more frustrating than fun (Sega Revo Rally, Sonic the Hedgehog, and Eternal Darkness.) Also the end of an era where I think to myself everyday I should have held out for a ps3, cause my 360's getting modded and will play every game ever! :3

Did you guys see the big news about the new "slim" 360? Apparently it is immune to the red ring of death affliction found in the previous iteration....simply because there are no red lights on the system.

I saw that. On a non-snarky note (From me! Can you believe it?), after it gets too hot, it turns itself off to prevent damage. This has been pretty standard behavior for PCs since the 90s. After five years and several revisions, they finally implement this.
