Xbox 360 Crash =(, Crashes on every game Options

[jsgongwon]

With retail Xbox360, with all default settings and on first lap of race track on Project Gotham Racing 3, single player, crashed 3 times in a row.
So far haven't been able to play one track without crashing...
Also got this crashing on Xbox Live screen and on startup too...

[voodoo721]

assmonkey, are you serious about it being on recall, or are you just saying that?

Idunno.....hope it was worth waiting on line

[Deftech]

I waited 11 hours and would have waited another 40

worth every penny and second!

I wonder how much are $ony fanboys laughing at M$ for this rush (shortage, games crashes, boxes crashes, and other stuff)?

But I want one BAD, no matter what!

What games did you end up picking up Def?

Lucky bastards
I'm on the 2nd round of shipments on my local EB.
I tried picking up a X360 this morning but I had no luck.
Even with the lesser known stores....
This shortage is probably the worst I've ever seen.
Can't say much in comparison to the PS2 launch cuz I didn't bother picking one up.
But people in line at Target for an Xbox 360?
That's a serious shortage to me, especially when you realize the low number of consoles in stock.

Enjoy bro
I'll be busy playing HL2 on my Xbox for the time being

Condemned, CoD 2 and Quake 4, all are stellar. Condemned is just sick! Quake 4 turned out be a most excellent port, and CoD 2 is better than expected.

Just turned 360 off for the first time in 9 hours, I am so thrilled with this machine! Condemned scared the poopies out of me so I had to take a break

[miggidy]

Which one would you say you're liking the most so far?
Oh and it's nice to hear that you're not having any over heating issues with your X360!

here's to hoping no other xs member is subjected to overheating

Haven't had any problems yet, sorry to hear about yours. I called BB last night @ 6 and they said first come forsy serve. I got their @ 5:45 and the people on line said they were put on a list starting @ 2:30 yesterday. So pretty much only the people on the list got it and they had about 100 systems. I got mine from EB online but tried to score one for a friend. I coulda got a core but they were outta HDD's and he didnt want the core anyway.

I truly cannot chose, I like them all for different reasons. CoD 2 puts you in the battlefield, and Q4 is just so sexy looking and plays as good as it looks. I remember the people here who said it looked terrible.hahaha oh how wrong they were. Having Quake 2 on there is icing on the cake

Condemned is a total psychological thriller, and the graphics are stunning. I love to be scared, and when it becomes too much, I pop in one of the shooters

I plan on getting PGR 3 and DOA 4 soon. The 360 is everything I imagined and more

Just read over in the XBOX.com Forums that the main issue is the the massive power supply brick. Members have changed thiers witha friends and all problems fixed.

One member says there is a noticiable differance in the 2 power supplies (color...etc..)

Microsft told a few of them to send in the powersupply and they are sending a new one.

Here is his reply:

Okay... we got two xbox's this morning..  lined up really early.. and through trial and error, I can tell you what this is.  Basically, its your power bar. 

We connect my friends Xbox completely and had this problem right away, tried everything we could to get it working.  We opened up and connected my other friends Xbox to the existing cords, had the same problem, and freaked cause we thought we had 2 faulty Xbox's already.  We took out the power bar and cords from the 2nd Xbox 360 and they're QUITE different.  The plugs are slightly different, different shade of grey and everything.  After hooking this up, BOTH Xbox's worked perfectly fine....

So at least, we've narrowed down the problem to the Power Bar.. the solution according to Support.. is yes... send it in, and wait a week for your replacement...    We're trying to pray we can get an exchange in so we don't have to wait a week, but not sure on how or when they'll get more here....  Best of luck.. we need it too apparently...
