CAGiversary!
Out of nowhere, my 2 yr old xbox 360 slim won't turn on anymore. Power supply seems fine, but console won't respond at all to any remote or buttons. I've seen a few reports of this online, but not so much in this forum it seems. Anybody else have this happen to their slims? If so, post here and vent.
Seems like my only option is an $80 repair or get a new one, but this is the 2nd xbox that died on me and neither were even played that much. First was RROD on an old premium that was under warranty because it was so common, but I thought the slims wouldn't have these problems. Are most slims still solid or do people just expect them to fail now and don't report it as much? Or am I an early sign of what's to come? This is inexcusable to have so many failures from one company's consoles even after they redesign it. None of my sony or nintendo consoles ever failed. There weren't any power surges I know of, and it was even plugged into an overrated monster surge protector with noise filtering alongside my wii's and ps3. Never again, microsoft.
