Hi all, I'm planning on buying an Xbox 360 soon. I was a bit disturbed though by the number of people complaining about their Xbox360 breaking after some months. I suppose every freshly launched console has some issues at first, and the hardware gets improved in the following months (less heat, less noise, better loading times). Is this the same for the Xbox360? Any info on what hardware build versions I should avoid?
Thanks in advance!

Theres no official word on when they are reviewing them but we are due one toward the end of the year early next year. Just don't take my word on it

i got my 360 mid june and i havent had any problems yet. Most stores dont carry the older xbox's anymore because people already bought them. I wouldnt be too worried.
