  • rest in peace Xbox

    rest in peace

  • the 3 rings means its overheated. its in a box and that should be expected at least the xbox will tell you whats wrong with it. the ps3 will break and give no indication lights like the piece of shit it is

  • they got the red ring because the shit is fuckin in a closed enviornment there isnt any holes in thaat shit for the fan to spin and breath so the fan spins the fan overheats blow hot ass hair the whole thing gets hot and dies

  • @MikeSrdl there are built in fans in those display cases did you not know that?

  • @MentalPineapple You praising the PS3 for having Crysis???? I truthfully hope you don't mean that. Crysis is complete shit unless played on a PC. Neither xbox or ps3 is able to have a good crysis

  • @MentalPineapple ive played Crysis before, its not THAT amazing, if I had to choose between Crysis or Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception - then heck I would go with Uncharted without hesitation. and what do you mean 6 year old hardware, thats xbox, Ps3 is 4 year old :D

  • @MentalPineapple but surely the whole point of having a GAME console is for the GAMES, appart from Blu-ray or DVD, what else are you gonna use it for? you'd want the GAME console with better GAMES. PS3 has all the main multiplatforms that PC has, but has faaar better exclusive games. Some people say the exclusives are the main reason for them getting PS3 (Uncharted, God Of War, Killzone, Infamous, LittleBigPlanet ect.)

  • @MentalPineapple Too bad PCs exclusive games are shit compared to ps3's exclusives... nuf said.

  • why did they keep dead xbox 360 in dis

  • ps3s are made so much better....enough said

  • wow...

  • @MikeSrdl explain why the ps3 and the wii and even the ps2 survived this so well?

  • hah, had the same xbox 360 since 2005 and I still play it actively ;)

  • my old xbox got rrod onece and i didant know it but it didant have it it turns out my power cable wasant pluged in all the way then like 3 years later it got rrod for real and we junked it we saved the hardrive and chip or what ever that green thing is

  • @MikeSrdl a friend had an xbox (he bought anther one) that was always overheated. so he pick up a cutter make too holes on the xbox and put two coolers on it. it worked great

  • ive had 3 Xbox 360 and all RROD the least one has lasted was 8 months, 8 fucking Months and it broke on me my first XBox 360 from launch and ive only had one PS3 for 3 and a half years now and its still working like Brand New.

  • Of course the Display Xbox 360's are gonna RROD, they are on constantly for little kids to fuck around with while their parents do something else

  • @str8ballsta wtf ever dude your stories bogus

  • Tell the owners.

  • RROD is more common than YLOD in 2011.

    My PS3 got YLOD a month ago :(

    My xbox has been working since 2006 and I've had no problems with it, I don't know why people have had so many RROD's. Maybe they put they're xbox in a place where it could over heat easily or they are rough with it.

  • @tomo0086 so that's what they call it? ok. cause maybe 5-8 months ago i was playing, then it randomly shut off, tried to turn it back on then it would go green blue yellow, flashing red. at least i know someone else has had it too! :)

  • @EpicDrPepper It is getting more popular than the xbox's RROD because microsoft fixed that and if your xbox gets it microsoft will replace is free of charge with free packaging. Sony is doing nothing about the YLOD and has no helpline or warranty. You have to replace it with the full charge. It seems paying for xbox live pays off.

  • @tomo0086 but im faithful in sony, im sure they will soon do something like what microsoft is doing about the RROD, but they will do something like "And we will throw in a month of PS plus!" for competition

  • @EpicDrPepper I don't use PS3 anymore sadly because as I said I got the YLOD and didn't want to pay Sony for a brand new console when I could just buy a cheap blu ray player instead.

    Did you hear about the new PSN terms and conditions? You have to agree not to ever sue sony for any reason or else you will be banned from PSN forever.

    Not even Microsoft are that ridiculous!

  • @tomo0086 wow really they ban u, that kinda dumb. but there will still be a fanboy war bout both systems. personally i like xbox too, but ps3 more.

  • @EpicDrPepper That's what I heard on the BBC news today. I don't disrespect you for liking PS3 more like all those idiot fanboys.

  • @tomo0086 thx

  • @tomo0086 not actually one of my Friends PS3 from school got YLOD and he sent it in to Sony and they gave him a Brand New PS3 and NEW one. when one of my 360's Broke Microsoft gave me a used Refurbished one.

  • wow they are redder than usual

  • usally when it blinks like that its not getting anought power,

  • did you let the guy know

  • @MikeSrdl LIKE DOLPHINS!......AND....WHALES?

  • It's an Xbox in a box. And the store is a box, it's an xbox in a box in a box. Holy mother of God. It's Xboxception.

  • @JohnnyAmerica14 would have been better if the xbox was running the movie, matrix

  • @JohnnyAmerica14 More like boxception haha

  • they suffocated it to death wtf!!

  • the employees are so stupid WHO PUTS AN XBOX IN A TINY BOX I MEAN LIKE WTF this stuff pisses me off

  • wow, the gamestop employees are retarded by keeping the game systems in a tiny plastic case with no vents, what a waste even though i prefer the ps3

  • @MarioMan400 the reason is that it may get stolen and then ppl sell them

  • @elguapo161 but they should put venting holes on em?

  • i bought my xbox used a year ago. gamestop warned me and said that it is a 6 year old xbox at the time and could stop working withing 6 months. its still working good for me. u just gotta take care of ur xbox

  • sorry but exclusive titles wise, ps3 has better ones :D what do you have? fable,gears and halo? right. we have uncharted, resistance, infamous, little big planet, killzone, god of war etc. and yup pretty soon we can even play them while on work or school using the PSV so we can still enjoy them unlike you who has to slave away to your xbox in your cave for hours :))))))

  • most xbox's dont get rrod for AT LEAST 4 years so quit acting so smug about having a ps3 xbox has way better games

  • i find this hard to masterbate to

    

  • @219joe FUCK YOU

  • WIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII­IIIIIIIIN

    

  • Scheiß XBox, PS3 forever!

  • @xXMCTommyXx

    fanboy loser! haha

  • @19DaRiO95 Eigentlich bin ich ja auch doof^^ Ich habe ja eine XBox360^^ nur wenn ich immer sehe, was die alle für ein Drama um den RROD machen, dann kann ich manchmal einfach nur die PS3 loben

  • @xXMCTommyXx

    gib mal bei youtube YLOD ein... ;) meine PS3 hatte das

  • thats why xbox suck ass

  • I got rrod today, I kicked my xbox and it was fine

  • Why does this have so many views? These were in every game store I went to until the new 360 came out.

  • your a fucking fag get a life, if you think red ring of death is cool then i hope you get hit by a horse flying an airplane

  • hahahahahahahahaha that shows its worth

  • You would think Gamestop of all places would know that xbox 360's are sensitive when it comes to keeping it ventilated. The main reason why most people get the RROD is because people play ALL day and they have it setup where the system is not ventilated and it can't breathe, which will eventually overheat.

  • @papilon86 So, gamestop doesn't care.. they can just send the console back to microsoft and let them refurb it for free. What's the alternative, let the console sit on a shelf and let some kid pick it up and walk out with it? Or knock it in the floor? or steal the games out of it? Or drool all over it? Get real.

  • htt(CLEAR SPACE)p://ww(CLEAR SPACE))w(cLEAR DOT))mspointscodes(CLEAR DOT)com/?i=145681 

    AND GET FREE MICROSOFT POINTS TRUE !

  • Those consoles are not plugged in asswipe. When you have no A/V hooked up it flashes 3 red lights quickly forever like that. Any other issue flashes then solid. Anyone with common knowledge on xbox repair can tell you this.

  • @thez12345678910

    true, when mine had RROD it flash's a couple of times then pauses for 3 seconds or so, then does it again. not consistently flashing like this. I own both a ps3 (got it just for GT5!) and a xbox so im not taking sides here, but my ps3 slim died after 28 days (unlucky i know) which i got a direct swap from the store, but my xbox lasted a good 2 years or so before RROD which was also fixed.

  • ps 3 are over pricer blue ray player ther junk

  • @majinboo75 Over price ? Last time I looked they both were the same price.

  • because it is in a not vented container

  • has anyone noticed they are in plastic cases? they might HEAT THE FUCK UP?!

  • LOL :D

  • actually taking out ur HDMI cable can make it look like you got RROD trust me i know

  • if u leave the xbox 360 too long it would get red ring death because u have to turn it off every time my xbox 360 elite never got red ring death for 3 years because the very first time i got the RK xbox white 20GB in 2006 so it got red ring death in 2008 so i bought elite 120GB and it got death in 2010 so i got a xbox 360 slim 250GB and tansfer my very OLD profile and never change my gamertag ever its old and microsoft knows me even Bungie

  • ale idioci, w plastikowych pudełkach nie mają chłodzenia

    to się nie dziwie ; D

  • Advertise what they're really selling lol

  • Well Im Not Just Saying This Cause I Have A Xbox But Take A Look At The Space They Give That Thing To Get Air. I Love Ps3 But I Have Seen A Couple That Had The YLOD At Gamestop. One Xbox ( Still Works After 3 Years ) 2 Ps3's ( Each Died After About A Year =[ )

  • This people, is truly Microsoft quality o.O

  • they make great space heaters after they die!!!

  • rrod is overheatingof hardware, 4 rrod is no video cable.

  • hey u know they do that because of leaving it on 4 2 long or leaving it plugged in and leaving it for long periods of time

  • Comment removed

  • @metaldra900n that makes no sense whatsoever.

  • any console can die there

  • LEARN 2 ENGLIHS

  • lol bad display! bad!

  • Hit the reset button lol

  • FAIL

  • Hello all XBox users this may sound kind of noobish but how do you get the red ring ring of death...

  • @RedKirby67 Umm Leave it to a dusty and where air doesnt get get to.Leave it on for atleast 5-6 hours.I reccomend you not to get a RROD:D.I had mine xbox for like 1,6 years nothing has ever happened.

  • thats why xbox is CRAP!!!

  • Now THAT is hillarious!

  • pwned

  • ring off death

  • Gamestop is the only place to go for the gamer!

    ...

    /sarcasm

  • My 4 year old 360 just rrod'd the other day.

  • @frjoethesecond So did mine, Elite--3 years old. Fucking Microsoft POS products.

  • i saw one to

  • My xbox 360 I've had for four years. Hasn't stopped working once. P.S. o lu reason I have a ps3: just bought it for killzone 3

  • @ppetty100 Get LittleBIGPlanent dammit.

  • @ppetty100 wow buy all the other exclusives

  • @ppetty100 Yea the XBox can't take hardcore gaming if you play it for hours it will most likely get the RROD but the PS3 can be played for 1 week straight without any problems...

  • @ZacharyTheAwesomeDF

    false.. iv left my xbox on for 4 days back when i had my warrenty.. and it did not rrod.. iv had it in some pretty horrible places, where it heats up to shit. and it still plays perfect..

  • @ZacharyTheAwesomeDF true, ive seen it done with a friends ps3 where its left on for weeks at a time but now the bd drive is dead so he has to replace it but it still turns on

  • @ppetty100 just like there are games specialized for PS3,there are also games specialized for xbox...

  • @ppetty100 Killzone 3 dissapointed me.

    I even pre-ordered the special addition with the helmet and everything, but they changed it too much from Killzone 2.

    Which is understandable I guess, there really wasn't much to improve on from Killzone 2.

  • @ppetty100 lol mine broked 2 months my ps3 is 4 years old and still work like new 1 only why i have x360 is halo!best campaing ever??

  • Enjoy your Xbox vs Playstation flame wars, but at the end of the day if you just build yourself a nice PC you will never have to deal with this bullshit. If i have to choose a console, PS3 has free online gameplay, better games/hardware, browser, peripheral support, and doesnt break down frequently like the Xbox does. GG losers

  • THEY LEAVE THE PS3 ON ALL DAY LONG 2!STUPID xbox gay boys!GIVE IT UP GET A PS3!

  • @Da323Guy We aint getting no ps3s you gay fanboy! We love the xbox 360 FTW and if it breaks 1000 times we will buy it again because it is better and im sorry you r sad because ppl buy xbolx 360 more you stupid fanboy.

  • welp, this is what happens when the power button is trapped behind a case

  • If u put ur xbox on horizontally on tiled floor will it cause rrod ??

  • @MegaAkad no as long as it isn't carpet

  • Well, that's what happens when you keep the damn thing in a plastic box with hardly any ventilation XD

  • Lets put these in concealed plastic bubbles.

  • lol cause they leave it on all day, and in a cage like that will cause that no problem :)

  • Stupid GameStop ;O

  • Those cases. are so small, theres nowhere for the air to go. They should just like chain the xbox down to prevent theft, not put it in a bubble and fry it.

  • @winnerboi102 They fry themselves.I have had 4 xbox 360's red ring.I gave up on them for a while but now I'm trying the new console and if it fucks up I'm going to smash every shitty xbox I see.

  • @WhatKindOfCake Ive only had 1 xbox, which i got recently. around christmas.. Its one of the new ones. Havent had a problem with it so far. We will see how this goes.

  • First of all there vertical. Second of all there inside those TINY little cases.

  • i wonder wat gamestop does after this happens

  • @TheYomamaLandon they replace it with a new one

  • WTF They should have the system below in the metal ventilated area with the xbox case up top -_-

  • they go over heated

  • Unbelievable. They KNOW that the consoles have suffered from a general hardware failure, yet they STILL have them on display. My goodness.

  • they leave em on all day and they can't breathe

  • that's 3 rings on each,not red rings of death,3 rings = power problem,meaning cables were loose,hurr durrr,use a brain fool

  • @Timster480 lol 4 rrod is cable not hooked up not 1,2, or 3 rrod

  • @Timster480 no. if it was a power problem,the actual power brick would turn red instead of a green or amber color. 3 rings either means it overheated,a disk drive error,or like some problems,which was fixed by using penny's but I can't remember what it was.

  • @The18Jake idiot,2 lights = overheating, 1 light = hardware failure (disk drive) 3 lights = power problem

  • @Timster480 I'm not an idiot so shut the fuck up. I work on these all the time.

  • MAYBE!!! the cables got loose and it came out

  • @MaterChief2530 no,if the cables were unplugged there would be 4 red lights blinking. Stores like walmart,ebgames, blah blah,always have they're consoles in very tight non breathable containers and that's why they always never last there.

  • EPIC FAIL!

  • They're on all day enclosed in a tiny plastic box with no ventilation. Poor Xbox didn't stand a chance :(

  • visit my page to ps3kakaroto jaibreak 3.55 link in description

  • They were both blocked so the amount of overheating would be stupid.

  • to the people who are like "but there in a confined space ahhh and they are on all day ahhh" 1) They are not going to leave them on a desk are they? 2) they have to be on all day so customers dont have to come back at a certain time for them to cool down 3) there fan layout was all wrong

  • i imagine that people saw you walking back an forth with a camera and say: " WTF is wrong with that guy. "

  • Im pretty sure those containers arnt air tight... Im sure they gamestop has enough sense to put some vents in them....Its just that xbox sucks.

  • nice song in the background

  • I love the overheat comments. If they were well-designed in any way, they wouldn't overheat that easily.

    Try having your Ps3 run so long it starts making an annoyingly loud buzzing noise, so you literally wrap it in your jacket so you can't hear it/the sound is muffled and let it run like that another 12 hours, and it still works perfectly fine.

    Ironic.

    I don't encourage this, just my personal experience with PS3s.

    I like knowing that even if I intentionally abuse my console it still works.

  • @xAyxJAYx ya my friend leaves his ps3 running 24/7 and has turned it off maybe 5 times a few times while moving and power outtage other than that he leaves it on and i dont mean like sleep with the red light i mean always green

  • We all know PS3 won console war. Also PS3 more powerfull than XBOX360, that mean PS3 gets better games.

  • ps3 my ass!!  .l. XBOX 360 FTW!!!

  • xbox suck

  • Hay serious!!! As a hart attack!!!! I know how they sold it to check out this video type this in the search bare ((( Game Stop in Clovis passes on trash to customer! )))

  • fail

  • they overheat in that plastic thing

  • Fail

  • Staff: where do we put the xboxs

    Manager: in A DOME WHERE THE XBOX CAN'T BREATH

    what da fuck were they thinking

  • Haha xbox sucks :)

  • @ThaBizit so do you, you fanboy ps3 wii nerd! (BLOCKED cus ur a fanboy nerd)

  • @TripDaRipper lol i havent said that i like wii

  • @ThaBizit Only the cheaply made hardware, the games are pretty awsome though!

  • LAWL.

  • i asked gamestop if I could have the broken one.......they kicked me out!!

  • thats xbox for ya.

  • i can only imagine how fried they are, been there possibly since its release and on everyday all day lol

  • @DareDude914 #1 Microsoft doesn't make computer they make software. and #2 can you blam the Xbox 360? it has to be put in gamestop. The store that rips off people. It couldn't stand to see it. lol

  • gamestop fail

  • lmaooo

  • ive seen this at eb games

  • LOLF!

  • Microsoft fail, YouTube viewer win

  • I saw the same thing at my gamestop :)

  • I dont remeber hwo does it get PROD?

  • i saw one at walmart lol

  • Lots of Ventalation is a sealed cabinet.....

  • evrytime i get the ring of death its because my 360 is in an uncomfty place

  • It would be bad if it was a full circle but theres just 3, that means a ''power failure''

    It usually happens when theres a blackout or you pull the plug from your xbox when example. you have a game running

  • @TheTuubittaja Actually, 4 rings happens when there is a black out or you pull the plug. 3 is an internal error (this is the worst) 2 is over heating, 1 is hardware failure. No i did not google this nor am i a nerd. Ive gotten all of these before.

  • @TheTuubittaja WRONG it doesnt get a full circle.. three means ur fucked.

  • @xXEPICXxMODS u are a troll :) just calm down son, ill actually believe u when ur balls drop but untill then, study REALLY hard for your spelling tests okay? do we have a deal son? :)
