So I don't have an x-box YET I want to buy one for Christmas, is this a common problem for them? A friend of mine who lived in Alberta went through 3 systems and swears that if this one goes he's doing to pitch it off a cliff.
you should get one, and if you do get the elite or slim not the arcade or pro because they will red ring, but the good thing about my xbox was that i have had it the first year that it came out and i got halo 3 right around there also, so just don't get the pro and arcade ( i have crappy arcade )
