My elite falcon is having graphic anomalies after playing left4dead for awhile. The screen starts turning green/brown. This continues once I get out to the dashboard so it is not game specific.
Anyways, created a repair request and was just curious if anyone has sent in a Falcon Elite and what did you get back in return? (original box? falcon? jasper?)
EDIT: Found a video with the exact same problem I am seeing: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZR3HgoxllfY&feature=fvw
just all of a sudden the blacks turn green/brown with hints of red. It is like gaming on a SEGA genesis.
EDIT2: Couldn't wait. Went and picked up a Jasper Arcade. Will sell the Elite when it gets returned.
Update 1:
Turn around time was about 10 days to get a return. The return had the SAME freaking problem. It was actually worse as mine would at least run without issue for 30mins or so and then the graphic anomalies would start. This one booted up with graphic problems. blacks were brownish and there were banners of white through the dasboard. I verified it was not the TV or the cables using the Jasper Arcade I purchased.
This was is going back 15mins after getting it in the mail. Kind of pissed as this is my 6th 360 and the 3rd with issues. That is a 50% failure rate.
1. Launch day console went bad after 3 days
2. Replacement Console I eventually sold
3. Bought another pro which I sold after buying console 4.
4. Bought an Elite that went bad after 10 months
5. Bought an Arcade while waiting for console 4 to be repaired
6. Replacement Elite was bad on arrival.
UPDATE 2:
2 weeks later and I have the 2nd replacement. So far so good.
