Yeah, dump a defective system onto some other poor consumer, (who's paying close to 200 dollars for it) That's totally not a douchebag thing to do! >=(

I usually play my 360 for 20-25 minutes, then shut it off and let it cool for an hour. It's annoying, but prevents RROD. My system has been working since 2010 with no problems.

Did you buy your system in 2010? The RROD wasn't even a potential problem anymore at that time.

I bought my first 360 on Christmas 2009. It RROD'd, so I got a replacement in July 2010. (A refurbished white model)

Yep and want to know the worst, most douchebag part? I worked at that Gamestop and not a week later sold that VERY system to someone else. Well i didn't sell it, but my co worker did. Im assuming it red ringed on the dude and he brought it back to us and then we sent it off to be fixed. I wasn't there whenever he came back to get a refund(if he did at all)
