aaaarrg. after an hour or so after I left it to cool, and its back at it again. goddamn it I am tired of this. I'm going to continue to test it, to see if it was an isolated incident, or whether it'll repeat. If I can, this consoles being shipped back to where I got it from if the video problems happens again. I'm tired of this bull****. I bought this goddamn thing May 17th and I've had problems ever since. I'd just like to play it without being interrupted by some hardware failure. Its not like I'm maltreating this thing. Hell, since I turned it on its been up on a stack of dvds to let all the vents cool it. But it still finds ways to break. And now that I'm out of warranty from my ebay buyer, I'm ****ed. 157$ and days of work trying to get this to work out are gone, because microsoft is too cheap a ****er to insure its products can work. Its not like I can't take care of it, i've had a nintendo gamecube since 2003, which was designed around 2000, and that thing works flawlessly. I think the only way I could get a hardware failure out of that is with a sledgehammer. And that thing's design is 9 years old. Since then, we've had ample time to hone our skills as manufacturers, create solid quality control and design and build gaming consoles immune to things like overheating and faulty solder. And yet we are spending hundreds of dollars on this garbage, this malfunctioning piece of ****. Well, you know what, for all the good games in the world if I'm going to have to buy another console costing multiple hundreds of dollars to play, then **** this ****. Simply **** it. I'm done with the xbox 360, and microsoft. I don't think my request is that much. Just give me a console that I can turn on with confidence, where I can join a party without having to apologize in advance if my console's video breaks down.
So there's my little rant. I'm going to keep trying, and hope it can resolve itself. If not, I'll try and get a new one from the ebay seller I got it from, or from microsoft itself.
