Official 360 Problems

Re: Official 360 Problems

Ha, good luck. I did that the other day, and they will replace the disc for $20. That's an absolute crock.

Re: Official 360 Problems

that may be the fastest service by MS yet

Actually, reading the paperwork that came with my system. They just sent me another system. So, if they do fix my system, someone else will be getting it.

Re: Official 360 Problems

Did you all include the hard drive when you sent it back in? I don't want to, because I'll lose all my information...

Re: Official 360 Problems

Don't send the hard drive back with your system. They will still likely give you one back with your new one. That's what they did with mine, so now I have an extra to sell or keep as a backup.

Yeah, I sent everything back. Once UPS left with my package that is the first thing I thought. I was like d@mn, all my stuff is going to be erased. I mean, my gamer score is still the same but I have to go back and redo all my games. It sucks because I was really getting into NFS MW. Oh well.

FF, have you ever had your 360 freeze for any game since you got it? I've had one freeze with 2k6 and wonder if I should be senidng it back or overlook it. I've read at 360 insider that some people who sent their consoles back received a refurbished one which didn't make them happy. Wanted to know if you've ever had a freeze.

Did you get a whole new system or a refurbished one?

Overlook it. It's something with the game. Once in a while Nba2k6 freezes for me too. Also, I read alot of reports about the game just randomly freezing. Don't be so quick to send it in. Wait until you start seeing other games free (if that ever happenes).

Re: Official 360 Problems

To each his own of course, but the MS warranty is the way to go IMO.

I don't see the point if there's a 100% return policy.

For 2 years?

I agree with that, so far NBA2K6 has been fine on my 360 but there have been reports of this game and Madden 360 freezing and locking up for others and it's not system related. It appears some discs have a problem with lockups and even disc showing cracks.

Re: Official 360 Problems

WOW, I'm over at XBOX.com a lot, and there are guys there saying that they have sent there system back for repair, and when MS sends the system back, the system they get back from MS, look refurbished or used, a few guys even said they sent MS there preium system, to only get back a core with a HD . WOW, I thought my system was giving me problems the other day, I think I was just being paranoid, but I have been playing the crap out of it tonight with not one issue, I really wasn't having a big issue to begin with, just a little stutter with NBA2k6, but
I played like 3 games tonight with not one issue. I don't think I'm sending my system out, my system still seems like it's all good. I called MS and there were sending me a box, but I'm just going to hold the box, they said I can keep the box and I have 30 until the work order get deleted from there system, I have the 2 year warranty, so the guy said even if I don't send it back within 30 days, I can always call back for another box. Liie I said I think I was being paranoid.

What's the difference if they send you a core with a HDD back or a premium back? You don't send them cables or controllers. So, you lose a silver disc tray front? Oh no! LOL
