Baby, I love you so. Why did you have to do this to me.
I remember the day we met. It wasn't long ago actually, September 25th to be exact. I remember because of all the hype surrounding that fateful day. I went in and there you were. It was as if you were just waiting for me to walk through that door. I got you home and unwrapped you, and ran my hands along your spartan green outer shell, such fine detail, such beauty. It actually sent shivers down my spine. I bought you nice things like Geometery Wars and Bomberman Live. I even got you your very own copy of Halo 3. Yesterday, I came home, and was so excited to see you. I could not wait to turn you on and get into some heavy action. Of course you're always up for some foreplay with the Live Arcade, but every time I try to get you into the mood for some real action, you simply moan and groan and make wierd noises, rejecting anything I try and put inside you. It's reminiscent of my ex-girlfriend's 'headaches' she would always have at the most inopportune of times. I can't really be upset at this point, because I knew the risks of getting involved with a console like you. I've heard countless stories from your past, going through life, breaking hearts at every turn. I just wonder, why me? I treated you so good, baby. Why me?
Wow, I can't believe you have already had problems, that sucks. You should send a letter to Steve Ballmer and try to get a new one. I would raise the biggest fucking stink evar. BTW post a video for proof.
Such a bummer. I feel really bad for you. How can they do this when we're investing so much money. The time value of our upfront deposit is not being respected.

about me
Be warned, I do not excel with the words, but I'll do my best. I have favorites, but I try and keep an open, unbiased mind. Just because I love my XBox, doesn't mean I hate my PS3. Also just because I love my shiny new current-gen games, doesn't mean I can't appreciate old games with technically inferior graphics.

My DVD Drive died too. =(
That was quick.
teh falcon chips are in select few 360s. Some of the Halo Editions have them, some don't.
i think its the crappy benq drives :( check it out on Xbox-scene.com or google it to see what you got. There may be hope for you yet..
(I've been pretty fortunate so far - and i know I'm trying my luck here in bragging, but - on Xbox 360 #1 - and I bought it pretty close to launch :S)
