Xbox 360 Failure Rate is 54.2%



















The Seattle Post today published a survey stating that the failure rate on Xbox 360's is an astonishing 54.2%. The red ring of death is familiar to the majority of Xbox 360 owners.

The situation is so bad that Microsoft has set aside $1 billion to deal with warranty issues with the Xbox 360. I know a guy who has had seven of these delightful little crash machine go bad on him.

What is sad is that this is the kind of thing that people expect as normal from Microsoft.
