Forget RROD: Meet the Liquid-cooled Xbox 360

My Xbox 360 ended it’s life in my home after it got the RROD, now if it was a Liquid-cooled Xbox 360 I am sure the red ring of death would of never happened. While it’s a bit excessive, it’s still a cool mod.

This water cooled 360 was the idea of a guy who is either crazy or just loves modding, it looks ugly, would not fit in many entertainment systems and would surely void your warranty. Now the good news is simple, this Box will never see RROD as 99% of the time it’s because of over heating issues.

Xbox 360: worst console ever created, eats discs and RROD

I know that this will upset thousands of gamers, but it does seem as if the Xbox 360 is the worst games console that was ever created. The thing is you need to have a look at some facts, Microsoft’s games console likes to eat discs. My brother was playing Forza 2, when his Xbox 360 decided that it was hungry and started to devourer the disc, what was left was a disc that was badly scratched.

And that is not all; many people are on their second Xbox as the first got that dreaded RROD. I had an Xbox and had it for just under a year, and then I got that Red Ring of Death. I was upset, however thankfully I had it repaired free of charge from Microsoft.

Since I purchased my Sony PS3; my Xbox 360 seems to be gathering dust. Maybe I might give it away to someone or use it as a doorstop, well it is bulky enough.
