Is Microsoft scamming us?

[RedSaturn]

Think about it, the Xbox 360 always get RROD sooner or later, are they programming it to overheat, I think this because PS3's, GameCubes, and normal Xbox's didn't do this. I wanted your thought on this, I don't know why, but everytime my Xbox breaks I get a new warranty, that warranty goes up every time. From 50$, to 60$, and now 80$.

No they aren't, because I have never gotten a RRoD.

Stop taking bad care of your stuff.

[Regulith]

Maybe you should go a little easier on your Xbox. I've had mine for two years I believe and it hasn't broken once.

GameCubes didn't do this.

GameCubes didn't do stuff.

EDIT: k, maybe a little bit... not much.

Thats the thing, my Xbox room is cooler, and I have a fan for my xbox, but it continues to break. I'm sure that you will get it soon.

I play an hour a day, I always keep my gaming area clean of my food and drinks. You know how us tubby people eat potato chips, drink soda, and play games at the same time.

Lol.

[Messes]

Because you live in Alaska. It's already cool, there is no need for a fan...

Mine is kept in like a usual cabinet area.

It's probably because I don't play 360 for a straight 6 hours like I would on my computer.

They BARELY rocked.

[Regulith]

Or maybe your Xbox in particular just plain sucks.

[Skip]

Nou.
Gamecubes rocked and will still rock.

I can only think of three games that I would still play.

1. Bill Gates isn't related to Microsoft anymore, he's hardly even on the board of directors, he collects royalties and oversees the company's direction but does not directly manage anything.
2. No. The reason 360's are prone to overheating is because of their design. Unlike previous generations of consoles (especially Nintendo), which seemed invincible, the 360 line is using more PC components. The high overheat percentages are due to people not understanding how to properly maintain a PC (and faulty thermal paste of course). Microsoft is guilty of 'scamming', but not in this way ($60 loving dollars for a controller).

The gamecube has no games?

No. its because your not much of a nintendo fanatic.
