An error has occurred... please restart the XBox

my, my, my...

the XBox 360 hasn't been out more than a couple of days, and already there is a huge outcry at buggy and crashing hardware:

MS have done it again!

[paim]

lol
Microsoft spokeswoman Molly O'Donnell would not detail how many reports the company had received but did say the calls involved a "very, very small fraction" of all the consoles sold. The volume of calls was in line with Microsoft predictions, she said.
Really, there shouldn't be any errors at all

Typical microsoft. They should not have made error screens, because there should not be any errors.

Really bad they rush it out instead of testing it more. Should have waited. I guess they just wanted the edge of being before Sony on the market this time..

Either that, or they used Sony CDs for the programmes. ;)

I dunno. You'd think that a product would be fully tested and functional before it was released, but Microsoft has been doing this for years. Which Windows was it that crashed on Bill Gates at an unveiling ceremony? 98?

They've got to start paying more attention to their quality control or they'll lose people. Who wants to pay for something that isn't liable to work?

Nox, your sig image is too large again. 350x80, please.

So, True. I don't know why people can't wait for a while. It's not like they realsed a ****load of games with it. They only released a few titles. Whatever. I will wait a while. When they fix the problems and maybe the price drops.

toda - please mind your language here... we are a "family-friendly" forum, thankyou...


i just saw a TV advert where a local company is selling the old XBox for "only £125"... stock clearance?

[todabeat]

my bad...

oh yeah i am sure that x-box prices will drop a lot. right now i saw the x-box with 2 games and two controlers at costco for $200
things will get worst once ps3 comes out.
