according to third party reports, a number of of Xbox 360 owners are claiming that Kinect broke their system. A thread on the official Xbox forums contains a number of players saying their system died after plugging Kinect in. One example is as follows - "At the weekend I spent £130 on a Kinect and a further £30 on Dance Central, so when I got home I excitedly plugged it into my Xbox... However within 5 minutes it froze up and when I turned it on again it had the dreaded 3 red rings showing." Following this, another user responded confirming the same event!
i have an older xbox from about a year ago its an xbox elite and i got kinect for christmas i had everything up to date before plugging in kinect i plugged in kinect and it gave me another update. i havent had a thing wrong with my xbox and it works perfectly fine
i get the red ring like 3 times a week. I think its because i have that fan on the back. Solution, unplug, put ot back in, fixed. The xbox is still the best. We go Hand sensors and you ps3 guys have the over priced wii version. The sensor bar for wii is like 40 bucks. For the ps3, its like 150 bucks. A remote for the wii is like 20 bucks. Ps3, 60 Bucks. And the ps3 is worse than the wii because i tried it.
