    360s Freezing since November update?

    Well... I've just been trying to play CoD3 tonight, and I think my 360 is dying (Quite annoying as it is 2 days out of Warranty, bit of coincedence?).

    My 360 which played GoW fine for about 5 hours yesterday now intermittantly freezes with no signs of overheating or red lights o' doom or anything. Now I've been doing a bit of research on the good old interweb and it would appear that people have been having their 360s die left, right and centre since the November "1080p" update. I'm inclined to agree, 5 hours of GoW with no problems, then put CoD3 in and everything crashes after a few minutes (CoD3 seems to be another common game for it to start on).

    Anyone else had any problems?

    If its broken after a year and 2 days, theres not a chance I'm paying £200 for another.

    Thanks for that useless, old, grammitically poor and unrelated information depresion.

    Tom, have you rung the helpline to enquire about next update/fix, they may take pity on you and help work it out alot of manufacturers don't stick to the dates so tightly these days.

    Couldn't be bothered and just lied through my teeth and got Game to replace it.

    I'm not usually dishonest but I'm not paying for it to be repaired or buying a new one.
