My 360 just died today at 7:58 pm. It refuses to read discs, although i did not get the ring of death.(but i have had it before. restarting it seemed to fix it but not for long i guess.) Hopefully Best Buy can get a core system in. They said they might not get another shipment in. How lovely, I h ave to shell out even more money for the goddamn thing. I can't come home from work or school or something and kill people when i want to. It hasnt just started happening. I've had my 360 for over a year and ive had these problems. It made a ring around Gears and now i have to buy it again. Now if best buy doesnt get my damn core system in, I'm going to be pissed off. I paid extra money for my guaranteed replacement and im probably not gonna get it. I guess I'll just demand an elite or something. I dunno. What are they gonna do. I paid for a guaranteed replacement.

And by the way,
when I called Microsoft about my Xbox smurfing up, they insisted that my disc was scratched, i moved it while playing, or i didnt have it on a flat surface. Assholes. Best buy tells me an electrical problem causes the disc drive to malfunction and ruin discs. (it really scratched their cleaning disc they put in.) So yeah, call Microsoft about your problem and they blame it on you. I told them i took Shadowrun right out of the box and into my xbox. The guy who cant speak English tries to tell me that I'm lying and the disc is scratched. Asshole. I try my hardest to be nice to people but it never seems to work out correctly. They can't do something as simple as make their product work. It's ridiculous. I know 5 people whose boxes have broke within the past month. One of my friends has been waiting for about 5 weeks now for it to be fixed. Its quite annoying i think.
