I think all the RROD topic/talks are getting a little bit of a ... shall we say .... aggrivation. (Like the IPone topics in the Phone Gadget World)

I mean come on. HOW MANY TIMES DO WE NEED TO HEAR ABOUT IT !!

FOLKS ... ever here the phrase "Beating a Dead Horse"

WOW !!!

- 360 had RROD issues.
- Folks complained that MS was not admitting the issue was important.
- MS admits fault, takes in on the chin, steps up to plate with 3 year coverage so 360 owners (or soon to be) will know they are covered for 3 years and new consoles on the way have alread had and will have more improvements to get rid of the issue.

-------------

How much more can you say on the "SAME F'N TOPIC"

Over and Over and Over and Over and Over and Over and Over and Over AGAIN !!

Next person in the local video games shops that mentions the RROD around me, I swear to God, I will subconsiously smash them square in the face.

Dam, that is crap! The warranty is good, but not all the way!

TheMART-sucksdick6905d ago

No more Over heating!!! Fanboys would go quiet on this issue.

MS steps up to the plate, initiates the largest and most expensive consumer warranty program in human history, and it's nothing but b***ing on all fronts.

Come on, people. Regardless of your affiliation, this move is incredible news for all gamers.

I agree but its mostly PS3 fanboys(90%) with dooms day hopes and (10%) 360 fans showing the news for what its is(the best warrenty in gaming history for a console).

People will move on; current owners should be happier than they were before they new they knew they owned problem 360 matter of fact before they purchased it and future owners will see 360 could be a risk(as of current or recent) but the warrenty is the best any company offers and they do have the best games and service(s).

People will move on despite what Sony fanboys say there are more happy people than people saying hell no in mad and will steer clear(mostly Sony fanboys talking sh*t). Nothings changed everbody new the 360 had problems; Ok its alittle different owners and future owners now know they have the best warrenty ever!.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

And then MK1 killed it again.

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.

As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
