For those lazy to go to links which also has a video -

Just days ago, we heard that Microsoft's Xbox 360 failure rate was at a staggering 16-percent. Not helping Redmond's cause in making you believe otherwise, one of the hand-picked machines used at the 2008 Game Developers Conference was actually suffering from the infamous Red Ring of Death. Comedic gold? Yes, indeed. Check the video after the jump!


(PS I own a Xbox360)

I kind of expect Microsoft things to break when they're on demonstration. I have no idea if it's intentional, but it's been kind of a traditional since Win95

I thought this was a pretty standard way of MS running things at GDC's. I could have sworn i read an article awhile ago where another demo 360 has gone awry.

Besides the 360 has still sold massively better than PS3 in the US, except for like the month of January.

That's freakin awesome.

Like when Windows 95 crashed during their world premiere demo of Windows 95.

Stupid Xbox and its inability to log out of FFXI properly...

Good thing I only use my xbox account for my mules or it would be a pain every time I lost my macros because of that crap. I don't own a PS3 but after having the problems I've had with the 360 I am seriously thinking about getting one...
