...It has happened. The red ring of death.

My Xbox 360...is deceased.

I was not there at the time. My brother brought it over to a friend's house. I imagine their merciless playing of it resulted in its death. What matters though is the games I will now not be able to play:

Mass Effect

Bioshock

Blue Dragon

Lost Oddyssey

Ninja Gaiden 2

The next Splinter Cell game (forgot the damn name!)

Mercenaries 2

Halo 3

Metal Gear Solid 4 (okay, I was hoping for a Xbox 360 port, alright?)

Kameo: Elements of Power (out, but I haven't gotten it yet...I was planning on it...eventually:()

Resident Evil 5

And more.

There is good news: Many people go insane at the loss of their 360, especially those with fragile mental conditions in the first place. (such as mine) However, I am perfectly sane and calm, which I am very much surprised by. My brother called me from his friend's house, and he sounded like he might cry. But I had no emotional response. I guess, in the back of my mind, I was ready for it to happen. I knew it happened to most people, and I wouldn't be shocked, nor would I be distressed if it happened to me. And, in the end, they're just games. But, alas, they're a lot of good games.

And I haven't given up hope yet. I may still have warranty on the darn thing. I just might be able to get me another 360. The exact same thing (or something similar) happened with my Gamecube. You know what Nintendo did when I called them? They let me have a new GC, free of charge...and I didn't even have warranty on it. Of course, I'm keeping in mind that Nintendo's customer service is to a point where it's almost ridiculous, so I might not have the same luck with Microsoft. Oh well. Even if I can't get a new one, I may just get a PS3 instead, it looks like there are a lot of good games coming up for it.

Wait? What did I just write? Wow...I really am going insane.
