M$ can say " we know.... were sorry....blah....blah....blah" but then, all the consoles coming out now are still getting RRoD. what there excuse.................... its like they haven't learn't from there mistakes. plus even if u get a warranty, and u get rrod............. they probably send u back a console that will rrod with in minutes. so there repair service is even worse than there hardware. (not sure about ms india.......... its more based on US and UK info................)

 

 

before some moron goes on a fanboy rant. i own both the ps3, 360 and wii. but before i came to india, i asked MS if i can use my console in india. blah...blah and if the warranty is in tacked, the f**kers said yes. now i mailed them as well, just to check......... i sent the mail to them in june.............. but alas 4 months later i get a reply, say "no....... warranty in now void as its been taken out of the UK" so i paid £60 extra for 3 year extra insurance......... and i get arse raped by them f**kers. where as my ps3. got offered world wide insurance for 5 years for £40. i should have bought that here instead.

well, i bought my ps3 on launch at Game, which have a deal with Sony and Alliance and Lester (or something like that) in which u can buy a 5 year extended world wide insurance and if ur PS3 dies or u drop it or what ever, send it back to Game HQ, they will send to sony and in away act like the middle man, sort out the issues and if un-repairable, they will give u brand new one and i got a letter saying if the value of console sent is not the sale or equal, they will credit that to me on my Game reward card.

nah, that was HMV, but two of my mates did, but everyone got the HDTVs in august. LMAO

 

 

while i did my final thesis at home, them f**kers did it in the queue. but in the end....... i won. i got the highest mark in the year and got to come to India, where as dumb and dumber, failed.

 

 

moral:

 

 

DO YOUR WORK BEFORE A LAUNCH OF A VIDEO GAME CONSOLE.

oh.... and don't take drugs.................... ermmmm............ yep, thats it.

 

 

 

UPDATE: no HMV......... what am i talking about................ Virgin mega store........... near tottenhamcourt road.

^^ You will have to send it to Australia t get it repaired as it is an OOR (Out Of Region) console nd is not officially supported by M$ India. Go back and read this thread from the beginning to know more and then call M$ India's helpline to get the details of the Australian service center.

Did any of you guys checked what error code the 360 showed?? I used to get a RROD sometimes but I think this time it was permanent and I have called MS and spoke to the asian guy. Whenever I got a RROD I checked the error code and everytime I got the 0001(power supply) error. This time when the 360 refused to boot up all of a sudden and started displaying the RROD I checked the error code and it showed me a 0003 error can't figure what the problem is lets hope it is the PSU problem and not the GPU/CPU problem.
