The Red Ring Of Death Placebo By Leek on Dec 02, 2007 - Updated Oct 15, 2011

The red ring of death, it happens to every 1 of 3 Xbox 360's. Me, being a recent 360 owner, bought this little accessory as a penance for peace of mind. I used a coupon to get the price down to a reasonable level, and I left, innocent, and naive. But, after some research, I was astounded by the fact that this was all a lie. The cooler gives none or minimal cooling at best if you set up your 360 in an open area with lots of flowing air.Even with not helping the 360, this voids your warranty. The bad part about this product is that it takes power from the 360, and my wireless controller lost it's vibration, and my 360 became very slow. To save yourself some money, you should go out and buy the Microsoft approved 360 Stand, which is alot cheaper, and gives better help for your 360.
