None on my end, but I would look at the topic above all this about problems. The biggest flaw in my book, this system is addictive.

Hardware wise, none. Only isolated cases of malfunction and over-heating have been reported, but those are flaws held by a minority of 360 units. The only flaw, for me anyways, lies in the software. The games out right now are nothing spectacular and unless you want the best graphics or just like to stay ahead of the game the 360 is not an essential purchase at this point in time.

There is one flaw, a huge flaw that carries over from MS' Media Center software:

You can't play DivX, XviD files.

For the media buff, this really sucks. But with all the positives of the system... I can overlook it.

Is that a flaw, or a design decision?

Re: what flaws are there with Xbox 360?

Good point.

IMO, a flaw. But I'm sure if you're looking at it from MS' viewpoint, a decision. With how popular the format is, it's small footprint, and amazing visual quality, not being able to utilize it in my Windows Media Center PC on the software bothered me. Them not allowing you to do the same (use codecs) on the 360 after touting it as the "Multimedia center of your household" is a shame.

Like I mentioned, I can look past it; just wish I didn't have to.

Right now all that is supported is MPG, WMV (no kidding), DMRV (I think), and ASF, IIRC.

Re: what flaws are there with Xbox 360?

biggest flaw for me is not being able to own all launch games (except nba live 06, don't need that burden in my life)
