Today started off extremely boring. I went down to the shop (see last post about that) bright and early at like 6AM (I really hate waking up before the sun is even up) to finish up painting and I'm pretty sure i lost a few brain cells because we don't have any fucking windows that open and the fumes are terrible.
Chase (the co-owner and my best friend) finally showed up around noon, I was pretty pissed until he told me that he had gotten a 360 for the apartment! Finally, we have entered post 2004 gaming! I left immediatly for home and left the remainder of the painting to Chase (which may be a huge mistake, I'll find out tomorrow I guess).
The problem is that it looks like it's just a tiny Xbox or something? A friend told me it might be an Xbox Mini, as he said there was a rumor that one was coming out, but he didn't see a picture of it or anything I just described it to him over the phone. I have included a picture if anyone out there knows for sure, but it didn't come with any controllers or cords so I will have to buy those seperately probably.
((EDIT: OK OK I realize now that it is an HD-DVD drive for the 360! I'm going to see if he can return it!!!!))
Chase said he got it from ebay (with what money, I dunno cuz we're broke till the store opens), so I'm hoping it's legit.
Anyway, I'm just happy we have something to game on other than an old Xbox and old PC. Hopefully we get it up and running soon. It came with a copy of Sonic The Hedgehog and UNO, so that should keep me occupied for awhile.
BTW, I opened a twitter account/youtube account if anyone wants to friend up, they're:

lmao
That's not a 360...
HAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAH
HAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAH
That's an HDDVD Player, and I really hope you're a troll. Otherwise, I'll pour out my grape juice for you.
I'm going to see if Chase can return it from where-ever he got it from because I don't think this will play games by itself, correct me if I'm wrong.

You got swindled dude.
This is an HD DVD player: http://scalegamer.com/images/xbox/hddvd/xbox360-hddvd.jpg
But I may be wrong.
At least it wasn't my money (better not be). I think he borrowed some cash from his g/f to buy it.
HAMZA!!! FRONT PAGE!!!
I'm glad my excitement turned disappointment is entertaining.
Well, hopefully in a few months I can just buy a 360 myself.
I know what one looks like, which is why I said it looked too small. Plus I was away in school w/o internet for 2 semesters so I kinda lost touch with the newer gaming systems.
you went double retard.
also, i totally agree with Ron.
Let's just learn him some knowledge and mold him into a true gamer.
I'm just curious...why did you come to this site, a video game blog, of all sites? I'm just wondering cause you thought that was an Xbox 360. And that's a, uh, pretty big deal.
I'd punch this "chase" in the face, if I were you.
In any case, good luck to your buddy getting that returned. Stick around, we'll learn you something about gaming in no time.
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
...
sorry.
LAWL.
I don't know much about legal stuff, but I don't think anything we're doing is illegal. Plus, wouldn't he be happy we're promoting him?
Either way, well done!
