Yet another Xbox 360 petition

The 3 month warranty in north amerika is way to short. in europe we have a warranty of 2 years. microsoft should at least change it to 1 year. you would almost think that they have no Confidence in their own product...

These online petitions accomplish nothing. Also, the warranty is fine. This is the risk you take when you are an early adopter.

In Germany, You have 2 Years warranty :-)

Thank God !

I know at least three people who are on their 3rd Xbox 360. If they are only going to give you a short warranty then at least send a new one when yours craps out. Don't send someone else's crap.

In México you have 1 year!!

I am the victim of the above story about chromehounds, and after calling customer service, I definately agree with the notion that the warranty should be longer as mine has expired (got mine on the 22nd)

Im on my 3rd xbox too. When I bought an extra core for my bedroom/girlfriend I made sure to get the extended warranty. Plus now if mine dies I can just take hers.

Love is grand.

Petition=stupid

Better Business Bureau= Better Idea

Holding Bill Gates family hostage to get a replacement= Best idea ever

P.S. Click on my name and check out my petition!

I went to sign the petition but microsoft took it out of the forums. Hmmm.

My 360 just died last week playing Frogger....go figure. I did by the extra coverage from Microsoft though. Not too pleased as they shipped
the box for me to send out for repair 3 day select and it is going back to them that way too plus the return trip back once they fix or replace it. That is 9 days alone in shipping time which blows chunks. Most plans I have gotten for equipment usually ship using overnight. Hopefully it will be back before Dead Rising comes out.

MS killed that thread, go figure guess they can't take the heat. Here is the direct link to the petition http://www.petitiononline.com/xbox360w/petition.html

I got the Extended warranty from EBGames.
It cost me $40 or $50 bucks.
Microsoft gives the US 3 Months so EB and Gamespot can sell their warranties.
I bought one because Microsoft doesn't totally know what they are doing, because they are a bunch of hacks. If they knew what they were doing the 360 would be more backwards compatible with XBox1 games.

Think about it, I can download emulator programs to run gameboy or nintendo64 games on my PSP.
Yet microsoft programmers can't figure out how to emulate hardware and API calls on a system they designed.

My original X box died fourth months after purchase and microsoft replaced it no questions asked. It took about 2 1/2 weeks between sending the original back and getting another one. So they seem to atleast be extending it at times

"Yet microsoft programmers can't figure out how to emulate hardware and API calls on a system they designed."

That system has a different architecture. API calls aren't the problem. They have to emulate the video card as well. I bet a lot more games could run right now, but the little emulation quirks would bring in a landslide of complaints. I'm just glad they didn't cheat like Sony by putting old hardware in the new hardware.

Anyway, I still have my 360 from launch, and it works just fine. I forgot to purchase the 2 year warranty (always recommended on v1 of a product), but I've not needed it so far. It is sitting vertically on a table as opposed to being in an entertainment center; maybe that's it?
