Turn 10 on Xbox 360 bricking: it’s not Forza 2

 

In a weekly Pitpass community update made back in Monday, Turn 10 has confirmed that Microsoft‘s Forza Motorsport 2 does not cause the Xbox 360 faults directly. But because there are still claims that could cause alarm to existing Xbox 360 owners, Turn 10 has reiterated that they do not have a solution for the issue.

“We’ve gone and tested Forza 2 extensively against the hardware and have confirmed that the game itself does not brick Xbox 360 consoles,” said Community Manager Che Chou. He assures people that although the instance reports may seem numerous, they note that it’s a small percentage of users that have reported the issue.

That said, however, Che Chou did comment, “We acknowledge that it’s very frustrating. … There isn’t really a software solution here.” He pointed out that Microsoft’s warranty and unit replacement service was still active, stating that the company would “ensure that newer units — or at least the ones they return to you — will have the red rings of death issue resolved.”
