Kinect breaking 'older' Xbox 360 consoles?

4.5
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!

Right... calm down?

1. Xbox Live is 100 times better than PSN (fact)
2. The 360 is equally good if not better than the PS3 :) ( If I want to view blu-ray, I think I'll put the disc into my blu-ray player instead of my gaming console :) )
