El Mamerro Posted January 29, 2011 Share Posted January 29, 2011 So, I just got my 4th RRoD. That means that if I get a new Xbox it'll be my 5th console. Fuck that shit. Seconds upon tweeting my visible upsetness, I got bombarded by people/robots linking me to sites that claim to show you how to fix this. Some of them did not look as sketchy as expected. Of course, they're all asking for money. Is there actually a way to get in there and fix a common problem, as promised by these guides? If so, how do I find out the info for free?

T4M* Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 You been getting the same Xbox Model? Maybe if you get the new xbox model, you wont have a problem? Havent seen the RRoD on the new ones........yet "It has a number of notable improvements over the old brick, including: shiny blackness, a 250GB drive, built-in Wi-Fi, a quieter fan and a custom Kinect port for new motion controller. All for the same price as before ($299)! Did I mention no more red ring of death?" -Geekologie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had mine since it came out and no RROD. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheoHuxtable.. Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Yeah that new slim Xbox supposedly got rid of the RROD problem. But if I'm not mistaken, the second generation of the old "white" Xbox got rid of that problem too. I have the second generation (has the HDMI port). My first generation gave me RROD.

Mauler5150 Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Forza 3 is really good, I get on that shit occassionally. Not really a fan of the racing cars, I prefer to burn around in my Reventon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GT5 is great, but the online is just for fun, really. It's not that intriguing. The game itself demolishes Forza by a long shot, though.

El Mamerro Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 After unplugging and replugging everything, pointlessly rearranging things, and praying to baby jesus, I no longer get a RRoD. It is, however, freezing up randomly. The only time I hasn't frozen up is when I only had HDMI running out. Problem is I have a computer monitor, so I only get video from the HDMI, and so I still need to use the RCA stereo cables on the tri-cable thingie (which I modified a long time ago to be able to plug in both that and the HDMI) to get sound out. As soon as I plugged those back in after a solid amount of soundless play, it froze. Still holding out a bit for magical recovery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEVEL 75 PALADIN Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I've also had 4 RROD Mams. The freezing doesn't sound promising, mine would do that before getting the ring permanently. I looked online and the fix seems pretty straight forward. If mine dies again then I'll likely try to fix it myself. I'm just waiting for the disk drive to shit the bed on me again.

A nice guy over at reddit edited the trailer so things are in order. I strongly recommend watching the unedited one (quoted above) first as that was the way it was intended to be viewed.

iloveboxcars Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I hate to be that guy, and I don't really know anything about the game, so all I am going off is the trailer, but I'm just not excited about that game. Maybe after I read more about the premise and gameplay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEVEL 75 PALADIN Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Yea like I said I'm over the whole zombie thing, but the trailer still rocks. The premise is promising though. From wikipedia: "It is an open-ended game, centered on the challenge of survival on a zombie-infested island. The game uses a first-person perspective. However, the developers are claiming that the game will be far beyond a typical first-person shooter experience, mainly due to a bigger emphasis on melee combat, role-playing elements and a clear focus on story-telling. IGN has revealed the game is still in development" Survival GTA RPG with an emphasis on character and story could be a hit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some things FM3 blow out GT5 by as well such as Customization, Tuning, liveries, and its generally more fun. All the cars look good and theres no drop off. GT5 has better graphics for certain cars and tracks, more cars, more realistic. But sometimes being 100% real is boring Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm a guy who absolutely loves arcade racers such as Blur, Split/Second, NFS, and I would trade them all in for GT5. I think realism adds even more excitement. That Dead Island trailer is very good. Who makes it? I didn't catch that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weapon X Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 nvm. Deep Silver and Tech Land. Tech Land made Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood, which was an awesome game. Polish developer. And it looks like Deep Silver is Austrian. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
