A Spanish forum has posted an absolutely wonderful set of pictures depicting Master Chief eulogizing and mourning a lost friend at a funeral attended by a gathering of grief-stricken consoles. The friend in question is, of course, a failed Xbox 360 and the pictures are, of course, quite hilarious.
Weep openly as Master Chief and an artist's mannequin console each other over the loss of a deceased console, and share the sorrow as the Spartan hero reads out his final farewell. The text is all in Spanish, but the pictures say it all. Check them out, they're really quite amazing.
[Thanks, Fernando]

What courage.
what an asshole.
It is truly a sad day when parents must to bury their children.
"This is hilarious, but really really old."
This can't possibly old enough for two "really"'s! there's a PS3 there so it's no more then 3 years old. One "really" should suffice. Or Maybe no "really"'s and instead it's just plain "old".
It's probably not even old at all. It's probably just a few months ago that these were taken, which is.. fairly young!
Sorry... I like picking on the people that think anything that's ever happened in the past is somehow "really really old". Carry on.
Fuck you for beating me to that observation, bright eyes...
The other Xbox was a 360 prototype the guy got from someone he knows at Microsoft. It doesn't work, though.
