Microsoft and their "refurbished" Xbox deal..
I can't believe those fuckers never send me a functioning system. My xbox crapped out on me a few months ago. First time I ship it..they mail me back a refurbished one with an Xbox live card. "cool" I think to myself..only to have my xbox die like 15 minutes or so after I turn it on. I ship it back..I just got my second one and this one won't even turn on. I got it a few days ago and I thought maybe it was on standby mode or some crap..but nope. Those bastards.

You should switch to PS3. Not only do our systems not break, but we don't get ripped off for paying for online. Plus Blu-Ray. M$ uses regular DVDs so that's why their graphics are garbage compared to ours. And Halo? More like Gaylo. Killzone 2 is the 360 killer.

Graphics are the same. If you play FPS on a console you are a douchebag. That is all. |

"Killzone 2 is the 360 killer" didn't tip you off?

Well the only benefit of them sending me shitty consoles is that every time they send one back they add a gift such as xbox live subscription, live market place stuff, etc. I eventually do want them to give me a fucking working version tho.

I've had mine die twice and I just decided to turn it into a shoe* but that doesn't mean I hate it. Every console you buy has a 100% chance of failing, the time is just random.
I also own a PS3 which has failed more than my 360. Point is, just because a console fails doesn't mean that everything they do sucks. |

Some have a greater chance of failing within a reasonable period, though. And some have a greater chance of failing, even if you take care of your stuff. For example, the Playstation 2 and XBox 360. Both of these are poorly made consoles. The PS2 had a failure rate of over 1 in 4, and the 360 looks to have a failure rate potentially WAY over 1 in 3. Then again, it looks like the YLOD for the PS3 and the Wii's...Whatever the Wii gets may both be above the standard electronics 3% failure rate, so even the "reliable systems" kind of suck this gen. |

Whatever. Sucks for you. I still have my unit I bought launch day. Got the red ring a while back and they had it back to me in 8 days. Same unit, works like a champ.

I bought a refurbished one in April '08 and had the RROD issue in Dec of that same year. I sent it in and got it back on Jan 6th 09. Apparently, my other one couldn't be fixed so they just sent me a brand new unit.
Workin great ever since. |
