There are reports that Kinect is causing Xbox 360s to succumb to the dread Red Ring of Death.
A 10-year-old boy explains to the BBC how Kinect’s Microsoft quality hardware robbed him of the chance to spend Christmas swearing at people on Halo:
“We plugged it in the day we got it but only played it a few times before we got the red lights. The next day when we tried it again we still had the red rings of death and haven’t been able to use it since.
It is quite a shame as we got loads of new games for the Xbox too and I never had a chance to play them.”
Digging through online forums apparently also provides evidence of others with the same problem:
“I have never had a single issue with my Xbox. I got Kinect for Christmas and the screen starting freezing randomly. Then on New Year’s eve… BAM, I got the red ring. Very sad.”
Microsoft denies any connection and refuses to even use the term “RRoD”:
“There is no correlation between the three flashing red lights error and Kinect. Any new instances of the three flashing red lights error are merely coincidental.”
Geez look at ps3 security lol fucking cracked already.
Whiners
Either get a new XBox / Find a repairer / Or contact MS
Stop acting so helpless.
Arte, all Halo games are rated “M for Mature”, there’s no way a 10-year-old could be playing them.
Excuse me? Better think again, I allowed my cousins to play M-rated games with their parents permission when they were 6 YEARS OLD!
So, guess again!
Not all parents have problems with their children playing ‘violent’ games because they are smart enough to sit down with them and say “Okay, Jimmy…. what is going on here in the game is fine in FANTASY but not in REALITY!”
While doing that is already a proof of parental irresponsibility, the fact that someone would moreover let their kids play those games online and expose them to grown-ups’ colorful language and other interactions is the unmistakable mark of a downright INEPT parent.
And that’s a pretty damn big fault, if you ask me. As in, authorities getting their kids taken away from their stupid asses-worthy.
simple as this pple are stupid as s♥♥t they keep their systems in poor placement letting them over heat and die (in short its all down to pples stupidy and error and poorly mainting them ..i.. learn to take care of crap u shits
