It’s probably inevitable that most Xbox 360 owners will have to send their console in for repair. Thankfully, Microsoft launched service.xbox.com to alleviate some of the burden. The site lets you register your Xbox 360 console and select warranty or out-of-warranty repairs without having to deal with customer service over the phone.
You’ll probably still be out of a console for a few weeks, but at least it’s a little easier to get the ball rolling.
