Man sues Microsoft over Xbox 360 problems (merged)

Also, HD's were in the first Xbox...so not really a novel concept.

They made it more complex, supposedly. Very different from the one in the original XBox.
The first Xbox had the capability to display some games at 480p, which is the same as DVD’s, but is technically not HD. The Xbox 360 displays all games at 720p, which is true HD.

And I've had absolutely no problems with my 360, no freeze-ups, crashes or glitches. It does run a bit loud though.

If the definition of fanboy is preferring a superior gaming maching (xbox way better than ps2) than color me a fanboy. Who buys Jap crap over American goods anyway? Not this American.
No, that was the definition. You have now redefined it.

I store mine horizontally. It has all the bells and whistles. Pumping out 720p. Forgot about it the other day, and left it on for about 18 hours straight. I've never had any sort of problem. It's on a glass shelf next to the furnace that is my receiver.

I suspect the people having overheating problems, are sticking them inside cabinets, or on top of other components, or otherwise doing some really ridiculous things. There may well be some faulty units, but it's clearly not a design flaw.

Well I see I was dinged for my comments, I wonder who did that?:biggrin:

Sorry if I offended you, but if you want to have an argument as to the relative merits of the xbox vs. the ps2 I'm more than willing.
I would caution you before you accuse me of dinging you fanboy.

yeah I'm a sucker for better games and a controller I'm used to.
says someone who is allergic to an xbox controller and therefore probably has no idea what kinds of games came out the last few years for xbox. It isn't 2002 anymore.

p.s. I'm allergic to any system that takes about five years to save anything... let alone try and sim thru a week in an EA Sports dynasty.
