  Halo 3 Cooking Xbox 360s

By David Richards | Tuesday | 02/10/2007

Halo 3 and Xbox 360 forums are buzzing with claims that the new Halo 3 engine is cooking Xbox 360 consoles. They claim that the graphics engine in the new Microsoft game is so powerful that it is creating heat when new textures and backgrounds are run resulting in the now famous “Red ring of death” problem happening.

One Halo fan writes on the Bungie Forum: "Halo 3 is making me mad. It freezes my 360 for no reason. My 360 is having all these issues all thanks to Halo 3. For the 10 minutes I got to play it, it was very fun. I have red rings for first time".

Another one writes: "Listen people I could have E-mailed this to Microsoft but I rather hear from the Halo community or part of the Halo community. This overheating issue has got to stop. See this is the worst case scenario for anyone who is about to play Halo 3, your about to play Halo 3 and all of a sudden your 360 dies on you! I mean come on people we have to do something about this! I mean what are we going to do us the Halo community and all the rest of the dedicated gamers, Microsoft has to fix this problem this problem could possibly be the death of Halo 3! But what do you guys think the "Halo community"?" [sic].
