<description><![CDATA[The Xbox 360 ring of death is not always the swan song - your Xbox 360 doesn't need to die. Of course, it will need some intensive therapy, core repairs and magic fixes, but don't toss it just yet. Sometimes all it takes to revive an Xbox 360 is a warm towel wrapped around the console for 10 minutes and a restart. Sure, this is a temporary fix and there are many voices against it, but it is nevertheless the proof that you can still count on Microsoft (unless the towel trick sets your Xbox on fire).]]></description>
