Well after just a year of happy ownership of my 360, it has come to my second christmas (with a second great batch of games, COD4, Halo 3, Forza 2 to name some)

after a great day of gaming with friends, and a film (basketball) I returned to play COD4 only to fall tragic victim to the 4thPlayerRed Light Error............

well what can I say? not much apart from a series of random shouted swear words and annoying rants about "how bill gates with his 50 billion bucks can't create a solid console?"

anyone else have their christmas partially ruined?

I like my Xbox just as much as everyone else, but I really feel sorry for anyone whose xbox breaks and then they said that it ruined Christmas,

I think people really need to figure out what is more important around the holidays, appreciate family while you can

My 360 broke Dec 1st, sent it in and got one back on the 13th. The one they sent back didn't work at all I plugged it in and immediately got the 3 red lights. Just sent that one out yesterday.

Dude, I just had my Xbox 360 instantly transformed into a Deadbox 360 TODAY! I feel your pain, man...good thing my mom wasnt home, I was f***ing cursing all through the house. Now I m waiting till the box comes in....and, then I can run four houses down to my friends house and play COD4!!! If, by some magic, I recieve this fixed before Christmas, I will never....uh,...swear at my 360 EVER again. Did you get your UPS (or Xbox) confirmation email immediately? I called like a half hour ago (finished the call, actually) and I havnt gotten one yet.

Christmas is about Jesus, not the Ultra Imperative, HD resolving, ultimate gaming machine of all time known as the almighty Xbox360! In other words, it's obvious that Jesus took the spirit of your Xbox360 to use in Heaven to pwn Satan with

Jesus-Thou shalt be wackitdth withith a Brute hammerith. Master Cheif is truly a man of god

Satan-TALK REGULAR AND STOP PWNING THE BEEJEEZERS OUTTA ME

(btw I'm a christian so sorry if I offended someone lol)

My parents will probably pay for it, but I'll have to wait for them to come home

they say christmas is the time for miracles, lets hope it begins to work soon.... but I doubt it

and if jesus wanted my 360 all he had to do was ask

He did. When you see the Red light and you curse, he assumes your shouting praises like NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I DON"T WANT IT. Then he takes it. BTW I'm sigging this

Dude that sucks, thankfully it hasn't happened to mine... but every time I'm done playing it and turn it off I cant help but look at it for a while and wonder if it will work the next time I come to turn it on. -Shivers- its frightning, and Bill Gates doesn't care he laughing at us all the way to the bank.
