redwolf is correct; your GPU is going out/has problems.

It does not have to happen on multiple games for it to be considered a GPU issue.  If you are noticing these things on any game it is more then likely the GPU, so don't waste time if you still have a warranty and send it to MS.

I've experienced this problem when I first bought my 360 but it stopped later on... strange, never knew it would be GPU related.  Also not to be a bother but your picture of that guy with the smile, he scares me, it's disturbing.

My friend had the same problem when he first bought his 360, but only with PGR3.  He didn't think nothing of it because it was with only one game and chaulked it up as a bad game.  Then 8 months later it died with the 3 flashing red lights.  Lesson learned.

I just got myself a xbox360, and started playing GoW.
I noticed the artifacting while playing online, I asked over the mic and no one answered me, but i was pretty sure its artifacting, green outline of everything and occasionally some odd blocks on screen.
I wonder if Walmart will take this unit back since it was purchased during xmas time, or will i have to call MS and ship it.
