That sounds good, the new batch being more stable. I'll be getting it in mid/late December, I just hope it's a new one..
And because it's a problem about overheating, I guess not playing it excessively would be a step towards prevention..
Edit: I also have some other things on my mind, I hope nobody minds me asking..
1. If I get a Live account, can I have more than 1 user name and gamer card and stuff? I'll be using it with my brother, and it would be nice if we could have two separate users, kinda like WoW's multiple-characters-under-same-account system.
2. I heard that sometimes games just freeze while playing. What is the cause of this, and does it happen often? Is it a serious problem, or does resetting solve the problem?
Wow, I see that I'm actually scared about buying this

Thanks for the help people..
