Pretty embarrassing for Microsoft that one of their Demo units gets the RRoD.

The semi it traveled in probably was the culprit.

There have been no reports of failure/rrod on the newer versions with a Falcon board.

This is the only thing sony fanboy's have to hang their hats on, even though 08' 360's dont get RROD with the Falcon board as Kon said.

... bwahahhahahah

The RROD is bad for everyone, no one has any grounds to defend it. The 'PS3 fans' are just laughing at the Xbots for the sheer irony of past accusations. Remember that PS3 overheating at E3? Wow the PS3 got so much shit for that. Guess what turns out to be the poorly designed console?

Doesn't the PS3 have like a HUGE fan in it or something?
If so, that's cool.
I must be lucky or something. My old Xbox never rrod'ed on me and my new Xbox is the new type and so far it's been good. I keep mine in a very well ventilated area too.

Obviously not very much.
