The Red Ring of Death has been plaguing Xbox 360 owners for years now. It’s comparable with the Blue Screen of Death in Windows, which is, in some cases, a recoverable problem. Unlike its software counterpart, the Red Ring of Death is to be taken literally: when it happens, your console is dead. No amount of homemade tinkering can be done to bring it back to life. Microsoft has acknowledged the problem and has offered a 3-year extension on Xbox 360 warranties. It’s a good deal, but it’s a solution that doesn’t tackle the problem head-on.
If you’ve ever wondered what causes the issue, then you’re in luck. A recent interview reveals information about the Xbox 360 hardware and gives out the probable reasons why the console fails. Be warned though: this is labeled as insider info, so take it with a grain of salt.

You’re looking at one of the rumored loot from the upcoming Sunwell Plateau raid instance for World of Warcraft, and it shows that once again Blizzard takes a bite from popular lore by including a sword named Muramasa. Of course, none of this is official yet, so try not to take it too seriously. I can already hear some of you number-crunchers out there calculating the impact these weapons will have in the game. It’s just a preview, and not even an official one, so hold off on the violent reactions for now.
The Sunwell Plateau instance is to be introduced in patch 2.4. World of Warcraft is currently on patch 2.3.2.

Again, I’ll be using the same references. I will also be making references to my previous post about getting the Tournesol.
