I’ve been dealing with the red ring of death for the last 2 months. “Dealing with it?” you ask. Yes, dealing with it. I’ve been overheating my 360 (as shown here,) which somehow temporarily fixes the problem. Usually I can get 4-5 days out of the box without needing to lovingly suffocate it back to life.
Unfortunately, I found myself suffocating it for the third day in a row today. Thoughts of facing Microsoft tech support (which I have nothing bad to say about…yet) and sending my loyal 360 in for repairs have begun. It kills me to send it in for many reasons:
a) There aren’t any Wii or DS games I have much of an itch to get from GameFly.
b) Seeing my 360 complain about what a jerk of an owner I am on its own fake blog makes me sad (which in itself is horribly sad.)
c) I spend roughly 4 hours a day on my 360.
d) GTA4 is out in 2 weeks.
On the other hand, it might lead to a neat experiment in trying questionable Wii titles. Probably not.
