    It's the 33% fail rate. Try sitting it in a different position or butting rubbing alcohol on the disk.

    i just got mine back from xbox not too long ago and i tripped on the power cord and for a moment the 3RLOD came back on. I fixed the cord and it cranked right back up and no lights yet. **** better not happen again.

    the game has a couple of really small scratches, but nothing that should affect performance. i just got this thing back from when my other broke and they sent me a refurb. so it shouldnt overheat. didnt they change the design to make it more reliable?

    Only the first gen 360's had the failure issues and over heating. Mine is one of the newer ones and I have yet to have any heating or ring of death issues
