    First of all, NEVER buy a PS3, you are wasting your money and missing out. I bought my 360 in Winter 2007 and it did get Red ring of Death this summer, but, that is because it was made when using the old Hardware and 33% of 360's made before August 2007 get RRoD. 16% of 360's made after August 2007 get RRoD. So you have a better chance of getting a brand new Xbox 360 that will never RRoD, then getting an old model. I have friends that bought old Xbox 360's and they have never got the RRoD. I was just unlucky. And it only took 15 days to get a new one, so whatever.

    Also, when you do get it, DON'T keep it on carpet because that will make it break. Keep it on wood or glass, and don't put it in like a small space like a bookcase or a TV stand with no back. Make sure there is a lot of space in the back so that the hot air has somewhere to go and not back into the system.

    Source(s): and if you want free Microsoft Points or Xbox LIVE codes, or anything else, i would suggest using Rewards1. i thought it was fake, but then i tried it and i wanted to get 1600 MS points, so i gathered up enough points by answering surveys, and i put in a request, and in my email box there was a code for the 1600 MS points. i am so happy it works. you should try it. sign up here, http://www.rewards1.com/index.php?referrer_id=2856...

    Dont worry about the RROD anymore.

    Very xbox 360 has the new Jasper chip

    which prevents you from getting the RROD

    and don't listen to guy that say get ps3.

    Ps3 suks there a waste of money!

    I'm not sure where you got the idea in your head that the PS3 doesn't break but let me assure you it does. The only way it can become damaged in a week is if you damage it.
