Late last night, during a run through Devil May Cry 4. My 360 just happens to obtain a ton of lines on the screen, including bits of snow. Tried to see if it was my settings, then played another game. Lines + snow came back, but now made any game unplayable.
Did some research regarding this problem. Turns out my system's video card is apparently on the way to "gamer heaven".
As of 6am, I received the "red rings". I will be receiving a delivery box in a few days.
Return time 1-2 weeks. *still recovering after the shock.. this just sucks
*plus I was suppose to be receiving a copy of Ninja Gaiden II from GearCrave this week.
Just gotta play the "waiting game", I don't mind; I'm a patient person.
Hate that for ya.... Raise hell about it so that you can get a quicker return.
Keep your HDD and then go to Wal-Mart and purchase one. Put your HDD on that 360 and you will be good to go.
You can return it in 60 days if something is wrong with it. You have to return the entire system even if it is just a controller that is broke. Take it back when you get yours in and say it is broke. Keep the receipt and Customer Service will give you cash to go back and buy another one.

about me
Every story has a beginning.. and mine starts with the classic consoles. From Atari, NES, to Gen. Odd how things worked out, from blips to characters sprawling over an open world. Either by pipe or a loop-de-loop. Those times have passed, but still are a part of our gamer hearts.
Well my playlist thus far.. Pitfall, Pac-Man, Super Mario Bros 1-3, Castlevania, Sonic the Hedgehog, Phantasy Star, Final Fantasy, Metroid, Earthworm Jim, Mega Man, and many more.. this list could take awhile trust me.
Apart from the D-toid family, I'm also a part of the AllGames Community, and the fun show Distributed Failure http://www.distributedfailure.com/
