Xbox 360 Warranty Extended To A Year
by Mark Renton
Microsoft has given a huge Christmas gift to 360 gamers — an extention of the original 90 days to a full 365 days. Those days of weeping at three rings of death at the 91 day mark are a thing of the past.
Even better news is that the company will be retroactively reimbursing consumers who have already shelled out money for repairs. Here’s the word from Gates & Co:
In a move to benefit customers, Microsoft Corp. announced today that it will change the xbox 360 warranty from 90 days to one year from the date of purchase in the United States and Canada. Microsoft extended the warranty in these territories to be consistent with the standard one-year warranty that is available throughout most of the world. The news is reason to celebrate this holiday season; it applies to both would-be purchasers and those who already have Xbox 360 and are still within their first year of ownership.
