Also note, if you add me, don't expect me to accept your friend request, as (like I've said hundreds of times now) my 360 is dead.

Pffffff, iPod Touch 4th gen.
I'm getting a Nexus One in a few days that's replacing my iPod Touch.

Lol break the disk into a star shape and shoot out the disk still spinning=new lethal weapon :D

Sadly, that wouldn't really work, main reason being that if the disk does end up out of the drive while spinning (which it has before), all it does is fall down while still spinning. But the sound that it makes when it ejects and keeps spinning scares the hell out of me still, because it happens at complete random.

200 for the Isobot and 350 for the mindstorms, Both in perfect condition.

CAPITALISM, HO!

Anyway, you might want to put them up on eBay first before you actually say that you're going to sell them.

Your CD drive has the "open tray" problem then. My 360 (before it died) had this problem, but very, very rarely. That, and when you eject disks, they eject still spinning.

*looks up from watching flash vids on his droid.

The iwhat now?

Pssssh. My Touch Pro had flash way before your silly little "Droid".

Also, there's just no way in hell Blockland for the iPod Touch/iPhone would work.
The controls would be god-awful (touchscreen), the only way to move would be to use the accelerometer (no), and...yeah. No.

Maybe just convert the Forums to an app for iPod/iPhone

The forums work just fine using Safari on the iPod Touch/iPhone. There's no need for an app.

Alright, update.
I took it apart, tightened all the screws, made sure everything was in order, put it back together partially, turned it on and it still had the RRoD, error code 0102.

So, as of 4:30 AM, I declare my 360 as "dead". I'm going to be selling it and putting most (if not all) of the money towards buying a new XBox 360 S (the "slim" one).

Ah well.

Try A PS3... Unless you are extremely into Halo.

Oh yes, cuz I'm going to re-buy every game I got for my 360 and then buy a PS3 on top of that.
Hell no.

If you pick the third option, then there are some steps you need to follow. But first, NEVER USE THE TOWEL/PENNY/ETC TRICK! EVER! That is the number 1 cause of irreparable Xboxs.

Ok then, now you need to check the error code of your Xbox. Because you have 3 rings, you have a general hardware error. To find out the specific problem, you have to find the code. To find the code, the ring should light up with 1-4 segments. If it's 4 lights, it's a 0. 1 means 1. 2=2. 3=3. Hold down the "Sync" button and press the eject button. Write down the first number. Still holding the sync button, press the eject button again. write down the second number. Find out the 3rd and 4th numbers the same way. After you have your 4 digit code, find it on this list and see what your problem is.

As an example, my Xbox got an error code 0102. To fix this, you have to do the x-clamp fix. I followed it carefully and to the letter, and now my xbox is up and running for just about $10.

Guess what fix I did?
Yes, the X-Clamp fix. It didn't work.
My 360 originally, 5 months ago, had the 0102 error code.
It has it again, it's even worst than it was 5 months ago.

Also, you have to be really idiotic to try the towel trick.

Having the back open isn't really since the larger vents are on the sides and bottom. It's really best paced sideways, since the main vent is on the bottom.

That's how my friend had it, and this still happened. Regardless, it lasted almost 4 years, but still. My N64 is 11-12 years old and still works, just comes to show that game systems are becoming less reliable.

Maybe if you didn't have it in a small space with less than half an inch of clearance on either side and no air flow whatsoever, it wouldn't have RRoD'd in the first place.

There's actually about an inch or two of space, and there's nowhere else this thing can really go. There's plenty of airflow in the back of the system anyway, and the thing has never overheated before. It's because of Microsoft's loving terrible heatsink design.

Plus, it used to be my friends before I got it, he took really good care of the thing, it was kept in a very open space, and it still RRoD'd on him.

Not Halo 3 Edition, they made fixes for it.

That's a complete loving lie then.
Mine happens to just be a Halo 3 edition.
