God I'm so fucking retarded sometimes
 
It amazes me how I'm able to get out of bed and put one foot in front of the other and be able to string together a coherent thought and communicate with other humans. Fucking shit.

So, my old XBox crapped out on me. I thought it was the laser, Alvarado thought so too, I bought a new laser, installed it, it didn't work, put the old one back in, it didn't work either (Alvarado owes me $20). I was going to get the new XBox Slim eventually, my old one crapping out on me just sped up the process. If I was able to fix the old one I was planning on modding it but now I'm going to sell it to a buddy and tell him he should take it somewhere to get it fixed.

So it came today so I took my usb stick, shoved it into my old one, and proceeded to start transferring shit to the new one. While it's transferring, I decide "WELP, I MAY AS WELL FORMAT THE HDD ON THE OLD ONE SO MY BUDDY AS A CLEAN HDD". So I do that and the files are done transferring.

Everything is on the new one and is working wonderfully. After testing out a bunch of stuff I decide "WELP, IT APPEARS EVERYTHING IS FLAWLESS. I SUPPOSE I SHOULD GET RID OF ALL THAT STUFF OFF OF MY USB SO I HAVE MORE SPACE ON THERE".

So I go to settings and I can swear to you I clicked Memory Unit and not Hard Drive. I can swear I did. But I guess I didn't and started removing things off of my Hard Drive. Click, delete, click delete.

"HMMM, THAT'S STRANGE. i DON'T REMEMBER MY USB HAVING 220SOME GIGS OF MEMORY LEFT."

Click, delete.

"WAIT A SECOND, SOMETHINGS NOT RIGHT."

Click, delete.

I get down to GTAIV before I realize I fucked up. Thank god I didn't delete that because I was planning on finishing that. I dunno why it took me so long to figure out. I guess I assumed the stick would like "Copy/paste" the shit to the new one even though it says "transfer" and I clicked "transfer" and read the word "transfer" like a dozen times.

The only thing of real importance that I lost was my Fable 2 save. That's a bitch and a half. To get all that work done and keep it on my hard drive for more than a year only to delete it a few weeks away from the relase of the next one. I hope it doesn't affect the story too much.


fuck

i can see why you'd be mad, after all that time you spent collecting all the gargoyles and those dolls

i'd just like to take this time to announce that i have backed up my save files of fable 2 and mass effect 2, and put them away safely in storage.

i would advise you to do the same, before it's too la...

I formatted my drive a while back, before thinking about the ramifications. Luckily, the worst thing I lost was SFIV unlocked characters, which don't matter at this point.

All my awesome fighters from FNR4 are gone too.
