This is the second time that I have gotten the infamous RROD. I got my first RROD in January last year right after my Christmas break ended, so this 360 has lasted me about a year. I freaked out last time I got the RROD, but with this RROD I was suprisingly calm. Microsoft is actually very good at repairing or replacing your broken 360 in a timely manner. I got another 360 after about 2-3 weeks. I am actually kind of pleased because this gives me an excuse to hook up my old Genesis. I'm challenging my self to beat Sonic & Knuckles before I get my 360 back, so wish me luck!
