MouserBrown 3 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 I bought my first 360 yesterday (albeit a pre-owned one) from a reputable high street chain, and after literally 20mins of gameplay got the 3 red rings of death! took it back and they swapped it for a working one, got that home and tried to play a game and the disc refuses to spin on any game!! another well known fault apparently! aarrgghh. Should I sack it in and get my money back or try one last time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MouserBrown 3 Posted May 4, 2011 Author Share Posted May 4, 2011 I think I'll try and complain/haggle with them tomorrow and see if I can get a new one as a replacement at no extra cost. If you don't ask, you don't get! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh'Grizzly'Gregory 138 Posted May 4, 2011 Share Posted May 4, 2011 The 360 is definately worth the hastle! Check out the Assassins creed series and also the Halo series, Halo Reach is awesome! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
