Anyways, now thats out of the way, i called microsoft today about a disc unreadable error i keep getting with assassins creed and oblivion. This sometimes happens randomly depending on how my xbox is feeling this day. Today i'm playing AC and i decide that i'm sick of this bullshit and i decide to call microsoft.
I had called them once before about the same issue, and it seemed to have been fixed for the most part. The person who helped me out was extremely friendly and had set me up for a free repair and such.
I call today and they say that my warranty was out of date and that they had to charge me 100 bucks to fix the drive. I told them that because the problem was never fixed before that they should honour their previous repair. They told me that they were "sorry i felt that way" and said that the repair was still 100 dollars. I told them to go fuck themselves, they have horrible customer service and that they should really take an example from nintendo's absolutely exceptional customer service.
(in the recent past one of the buttons on my DS stopped working. I called them, they SENT ME A NEW DS, i take the new ds out of the box, put my old DS in the box, and send it back. From there they gave me an additional 2 year warranty on my new one)
So fellow dtoiders all i have to say is FUCK XBOX, PC GAMING FOR LYFE![img][/img][img][/img]
At least you can take it to Best Buy and they'll give you another one...I hear they don't check return mercandise..lol
Well, good luck. nintendo is pretty good with that sort of stuff, that's for sure.

They changed their policy. It was very recently, because it used to be they wouldn't, but I tried to do that with my Rock Band and they wouldn't let me switch it out for anything, much less give me a refund.
...Maybe we could get together sometime.
But, in all seriousness, that really sucks. It's their fault they made a crap system, and not your fault for trying to play games on it. Hopefully you find a way around the red tape.
Seriously though their support here in Europe is awful to, considering how many people would have called them over RROD and Disc's not being readable etc...
Seriously, though, that blows. They really should fix the issue for free; I hate technicalities like that.
so sweet.
also, M$ douchebags.
