I was told the xBox 360 was unreliable for when the red ring happens, but I didn't know it was this bad. I recieved my xbox on December 25th, 2008. I hardly used it until I got halo in mid-february, 2009. Then, uses were scarce. Maybe 5 hours a week until my birthday, February 2nd, 2010, when I got Live. Nearly four months later, I was playing MW2 (no flames), and the system freezes. I don't know what to do about this, so I just unplug it, replug it, turn it on, and get this nifty message. "System Error. Contact Xbox Customer Support." in 10 languages.... x.x

There are 3 lit red rings around the power button, right? Edit: When it rings the graphic's card is fried, you shouldn't get a message from the 360 at all.

It is only in the bottom right corner, don't know if that is a sign of anything. It said E 68. Not willing to spend $299 for a ps3 that will likely break as well.

What I did then: Call support, have UPS pick it up, wait 2 weeks for it to be repaired, get it back with 1 month of XBL Gold. All entirely free of charge. RROD has a 5 year warranty IIRC.
