I almost never recommend Product Replacement Plans for electronics products. They are one of the biggest rip-offs most retailers try to sell you. In the case of the Xbox360 however, statistics don't lie. Until the 360 gets it's new 65nm processor architecture the chances are very good that you will experience the dreaded red ring of death at least once.
It is ironic then that Gamestop has decided to stop offering a PRP for the one product for which I would wholeheartedly recommend one, the Xbox 360. Apparently the Gamestop brainwizards finally figured out that instead of this product replacement plan fleecing their customers, their customers were fleecing them with this deal. Essentially, the one time they were offering a PRP that actually served it's purpose, it has bitten them in the @ss.
So, in case you ever thought your favorite retailer offered you a PRP out of the goodness of their heart, now you know the cold hard truth.
By the way, if you already purchased a PRP for the 360, don't worry, you are covered until it expires.
