Chips_B_Malroy"Destructoid's team maintains they didn't move the new one much, but they raise a key point: how less likely now are Xbox 360s to remain untouched once Kinect motion detector accessories are plugged in and kids start leaping around in front of the console?"Jun 17 18:03
oiaohmOf course they are not going to fix disc destruction.  MS gets payed per disc sold.  Chips_B_MalroyJun 17 18:05
Chips_B_MalroySo removing the lights not only hides the RROD problem, but also the E74 problem.  Also, it appears in the first link, from a comment, that MS may have gone back to the original 1 year warrently only for RROD/E74, as without the lights, it becomes hard to prove the problem.  MS could in effect charge for other repairs, even if it is RROD/E74Jun 17 18:05

Add shipping, let's say 15 pounds in weight, additional accessories to packing materials to boxing. Who knows what that totals, but it's not nothing, and you can multiply it (plus $300) times however many thousand of us were huddled in the Wiltern Theater at that moment, Monday afternoon.  What's that come to?

Chips_B_Malroy"It's not really a bribe," said a friend. "Think about it. They'd send you a review unit anyway." "Jun 17 18:11
Chips_B_Malroy"True. And they would. But we're talking a lot of redundancy in that system. A lot of people getting Xbox 360s that already have Xbox 360s. A lot of folks who don't even review game consoles because that's not their gaming stock in trade."Jun 17 18:12
Chips_B_Malroy"It just seemed so very strange, watching everyone clapping, cheering, leaping out of their seats, as if we were all on Oprah, and she'd just announced that everyone in the viewing audience was getting a brand new car.
