    Still selling brand new consoles, so I'd imagine it will a while yet.
    Can you not avail o the extended M$ warranty for the RROD? They give 3 years now, don't they?

    If you are out of warranty for some reason you could do worse than send it to these guys:

    They'll fix it for 60e or no charge.

    Corporations, schmorporations. If you find Sony are giving you a better deal, good for you stick with them. Don't fool yourself into thinking they look after their customers any more than Microsoft. You just fell into the % of customers Microsoft treated bad and the % Sony treated good. As long as you have money and are willing to pay, they'll both treat you well. Same as any conglomerate.

    No 360 in the world is out of warranty until November of this year. And if you were charged before the 3 yr warranty came into effect MS refunded all the people they charged plus gave them free Live subs for a few months.

    I don't see where your going though with the range of games though, the 360 has over 300 vs what around 100+ for the PS3 because it was later on the market plus most of the quality games are cross platform anyways.

    Someone has a chip with MS I see, even though it's Sony that screw the EU the most with prices and release dates and yet we still go and buy their stuff, me included.
