My Xbox 360 Elite died again. I got a launch model in August of 2007 and it died with a single red light, no error code. They sent me back a Falcon, which ran fine until this morning, when I got an E74.

Of course, Microsoft's Xbox support site is broken. They don't remember that I sent it in once already, and I can't register a new console because the form leads to a blank page. I can't check my info because the link goes to a blank page. I can't call support because they're not open yet. Fun times.

At least this is only the second failure I've had. My friend has had 5.

Hahahahahaha. That just sounds absurd. "At least it's only the second failure of a $500 console!"

Jesus Christ.

It's not really even a consolation (heh) that I have a PS3 now since there are no fun games on it that I didn't already get for the Xbox.

Fuck Microsoft. Fuck Sony. Fuck UPS.

Wait so uh you're blaming the PS3/Sony for the multi-platform games you played/bought for your 360 instead of the PS3?

I remember back when Sony released firmware 2.40 and it started bricking PS3s and 360s!! Hahaha man was Microsoft confused on that one.

Also, Warhawk!! Seriously, it may be a "love it or hate it" game but it's the peanut butter to my jam. Try the demo off the PSN Store.

Sorry to hear about the 360 death... but as Celica says, try some of the demos off the PSN store. At least you have a second console you can use while waiting on the 360 repair or getting a new one. A lot of people unfortunately don't have that luxury. :(

Warhawk is a fantastic game... but there are also lots of fairly cheap interesting PSN games you can try out - like Flower, Fat Princess, etc... or go give Home a try and play Poker for free.

Yeah dude, it sure is Sony's fault that you chose to buy mutliplatform games on a console that is widely known to be inferior and prone to hardware failure.

I find this sentiment of owners practically bragging about their dusty Wii's and gameless PS3s absolutely rediculous. Congrats dude, you wasted hundreds of dollars. You're so cool.

Feh, stick to the DS. Cart based systems have never treated me so badly. <3

@MrSadistic: not at all. I'm saying there's no consolation in my PS3 since I don't have the games that I would like to play. If I thought the PS3 wasn't worth having, I wouldn't have bought it. I'm actually going to buy Resistance and Drake's Fortune today after I finish work so I have something to play while I wait for the Elite to come back.

The "Fuck Microsoft. Fuck Sony. Fuck UPS" applies generally. They all fucking suck.

It's posts like this that remind me to never get an Xbox 360. Until they fix problems like this, I am not going to buy one.
