567166 2007-07-09 19:47:00 I heard about a guy recently who was on his 12th xbox 360. MS are taking a 1 billion hit on the warranties.

Quite possibly, but I have to think that someone who manages to go through that many in a reasonably short time, and still buys another one, must doing something wrong. Surely to some degree this person is partly responsible for their troubles.

567167 2007-07-09 19:49:00 Analysts, report suggest that Microsoft could announce a price drop this week in response to Sony's Playstation 3 price reduction. USDollars: Analyst Micheal Pachter said on Monday that Microsoft will, in fact, reduce the price of the Xbox 360 tomorrow at the start of the company's E3 press briefing. He believes the $299 Core will drop to $249; the $399 Premium to drop to $349; and the newly released $479 Elite to drop to $399 in response to lower-than-expected sales of all three systems.

I've owned my Xbox360 since launch day and have never had so much as a problem. Not even a freeze up during gameplay... nothing. So I guess it's luck of the draw to some extent.

Do you own a PS3? If so, add EvilWalksWithMe as i'm keen to play some games online :)

567170 2007-07-10 01:21:00 That wouldn't surprise me at all. One of the reasons Apple ditched the IBM PPC chip for the G5 Mac was because it ran too hot - the XBox uses a chip from the same family and was designed around the Mac Pro Tower. The other reason Apple ditched them was because they weren't making the chips fast enough. winmacguy (3367)

Apple solved its problem by getting its chips from Intel, Microsoft is still working on theirs ;)

567174 2007-07-10 04:22:00 we all now PC is the best gaming platform, bar the social gaming where the Wii seems to fit right in.

Microsoft in Japan has said 'no' to a possible price drop in the 360, and NZ tend to follow Asia in pricing.

It will be interesting to see how soon the price drops on the PS3 in NZ.
