Through some strange circumstance I came into possession of an XBox 360 that was just starting to RRoD when starting up. Fortunately I was able to find an excellent experienced repair guy through Kijiji Saskatoon that does RRoD repairs for $40, and said he would stand by his work and the machine is holding up and continues to serve flawlessly.
The machine was back to me around 2010-Sep-5 and I've been through a bunch of games that came with the machine. Did Gears of War 1 and 2 again with Ruxpin and finished the game Too Human. Also played a little Lost Odyssey (which I thought was great) and Shadowrun (which was terrible). Then I got into the Modern Warfare games... MW2, then Black Ops, then MW1, and now I'm chomping on the bit for MW3 (which should be released soon).
Games I've got in my hands that I'm waiting to get started playing.
- Gears of War 3 (I'm into this one now)
- Fable III
- Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2010
- Metro 2033
- Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light (played the demo and it was super neat, would still like to get this for the XBox)
- Modern Warfare 3 (since I'm playing these mainly on the 'box, might as well stick with)
- Battlefield 3 (2 wasn't the best, but Medal of Honor by DICE was excellent, so I'll give this one a look)
