RROD being the big one, I guess, but in my few months with the older model, I find myself scratching my head a lot at how Microsoft could have let some of these go through.
- The machine gobbling your disc up if you so much as touch the machine while it's on
- HDMI and standard def ports being RIGHT next to each other, along with fat standard/component cable, making it impossible to plug HDMI and regular in at the same time
- 360 controllers randomly disconnecting because apparently your controller can just go bad or your battery pack can come loose. The first one is bad enough, but how the hell do you release a controller that can't even secure the batteries correctly?
- The HUEG power brick
- The stupidly concealed USB ports (this one is just me complaining, I admit it)
I always just kind of assumed that MS would have addressed all of these with their updated hardware, but I recently read an article talking about how hilariously sensitive the new eject button is, leading me to make this topic.
I'm not trying to bash the 360, I am just genuinely befuddled at how a machine can have so many glaring design flaws.
