How long will my Xbox 360 be usable for, and how long was it meant to last?

mother funker its down to 250 again? i just paid 300 couple months ago

i would just buy a new one

when my friends xbox got red ring of death, well first off it did not work anymore ever tho, i called microsoft, it was way past warranty and had no reciept or anything, but i sent it in and they fixed and even paid for the postage, did not cost me a dime. so you could try that but it sound like you dont have the real red ring of death, but you could lie and say that you do...

no i just checked and the 250gb is still $300 guy... it went down for like 15 days near xmas to $250 and then went back up again, I actually called to complain about that, and microsoft told me the $250 ones during xmas were refurbished, well they were not, full of **** liars, they just raised the price back up, shitheads at MS

I had my xbox for 4 years and its fine but i think you should just wait for the 720 because it is coming out in fall

Well, if it can function right most of the time, just wait for the 720. If your Xbox shits the bed, get a new one. A slim 250GB costs $250.

if it really pea's u off then id say buy 1 on ebay for like a cheap price (i saw 1 for £50) or u can wait for the new xbox which by the way is not 720 its somthin like xbox evolution v2

or you can buy a 4gig for $100. your call.
