I love the XBOX 360 as well. I bought mine around the sametime Hellfire did.
I only wish I had more time to play it. My kids play it more then I do. I'm shocked at how fast they learn the controls. I think they are probably better then I am at this point.
My kids are 4 and 6.  |

I have one and it ran great until it died 2 months ago from the RED RING OF DEATH! The replacemt unit I received just before Christmas looks like it might suffer the same fate. I was playing COD4 last night and it froze up hard  |

Get an Intercooler, those are supposed to help with the airflow and hopefully reduce the red-ring of death issue.. |

Still gotta be careful with that. I guess this is what happens when we rely on microsoft for a large demographic of console games.

The RRoD is covered my M$ for 3 years, so all 360's since launch are covered by the warranty. Newer models (Pro/Elite) that have the HDMI port should be ok from the RRoD...
Myself, I own a Wii and PS3  I might get a 360 down the road, but I'm pretty happy with my current consoles

No RRoD yet (of course I don't play it all that much  ). But so far it's been fun. Just hard getting use to gaming on a pad when I'm so used to keyboard and mouse.
Misty wants a WII, and we'll probably get one of those soon. Once we stop hurting from the large IRS bill, and our vacation.
