We're all on Vent yesterday testing some stuff out. I did some test recording and then later on the night...
AC and I hopped on Call of Duty while the others played some D2.



Everything is fine until the 360 started to make this loud humming noise. I passed it off as normal and continued to play.



A few games later we back out to the lobby to invite one of my friends. The game freezes. No big deal, this happened before on GTA when we blew up like 10 cars at once with me on top of it all.



I turn it off and back on again. The 360 loads up fine then it freezes at the dashboard.



At this point I was thinking "oh shit no."



So I reboot the 360 again and it flashed the red rings in my face, blinding me in the process.


I later found out that it was the DVD drive that died. I hasn't even been a year yet and I get this shit. Then it occurred to me that I made fun of Wiryu on Vent about his RROD last night.

I had an issue with my Xbox 360 when i first got it at release. It was making that same grinding sound. I figured it was because I was playing Oblivion non-stop for hours on end, followed by my brother playing it non-stop right after. Eventually is started to cause my game to freeze up frequently, but I never got the red ring since I sent it back asap for repairs. It takes about 3-4 weeks for you to get everything back.

FYI, take out the Hard Drive before you send it to them.
