minus-squarechronicledmonocle@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 days agoMy Xbox 360 RRoD’ed on me twice. It also had its disc drive die THE DAY I got Skyrim on release after waiting in line for it. I spent the next several hours learning how to flash the firmware of a broken RRoD’ed Xbox 360 so that I could replace my drive with its parts. It was simultaneously the best and worst console I ever owned: Best because I have a lot of fond memories playing Halo 3 multiplayer, Skyrim, etc. with my friends in my college apartment we all shared. Worst because it was an unreliable piece of shit.
