MICROSOFT HAS admitted that all the 11.6 million faulty Xbox 360s sold in the last 19 months are faulty.
In a statement, Volish spinsters said that all of the consoles suffer from a design flaw which could cause the machine to fail.
However, the outfit said that while it is extending the warranty coverage from one to three years to compensate consumers, it had no plans to recall or exchange the boxes.
Volish gaming supremo Robbie Bach refused to say what the problem is, but said that units currently in stock will be upgraded.
