well, i think if you want to buy a next-gen console. the 360 is your choice. it's the cheapest next gen console here.. yup, there's this thing about the rrod. but it only happens when it overheats due to long hours of playing. or maybe the temperature in your house. uhmm, i think there are shops that offer warranty when you buy a console. but i don't know where because i don't live in manila. i hope this helps.
