More reliable Xbox 360s are starting to trickle onto the market, but the fallout from the "red rings of death" remains. Now they're facing a class action lawsuit in California.
Kotaku (via Daily Games News) is reporting that the lawsuit was filed under California's consumer protection statutes, and alleges that Microsoft knew that the system would suffer a 50 percent failure rate, but concealed the knowledge to compete with the Nintendo Wii and the PlayStation 3. The suit cites articles from sources such as VentureBeat and Yahoo! to support its claims.
If Microsoft loses the suit, they will potentially have to implement a refund program in California as well as surrender profits relating to Xbox 360 sales. But even if they win, it doesn't look like Microsoft will be allowed to forget about the unreliability of the Xbox 360 anytime soon. But the question is, should they be?
GOSH! Remind me not to make Rukia (my sister) angry!
