I am so torn with this one, whether to give it a good or bad rating.
First of all, I love the original Xbox , so it was a natural progression to move up to the 360. As one that likes to save money where I can, I bought my 360 second hand for a great price.
At first there were only little things that bugged me about it. Like the way some of my old games did not work on it, but whatever I can handle that .
It has a lot of great things about it. It truly is a total multimedia center allowing you to watch DVD's, play games, watch videos, play music and even connect to my PC for even more expanded use.
However one day while just listing to my music it quite simply stopped working, I got whats called the 'RING OF DEATH'. Basically that is the system overheated (and never starts again). I knew that this was a common problem but figured that I did not use my console as much as other people so I would be fine.
Now it lies in a box waiting for me to try and fix it (apparently there is a way)
My advice is that if you want this console buy it NEW. My friend had a new one, got the ring of death and simply got his exchanged because of the manufactures warranty.
