The title of this entry may be a bit harsh but i have my suspicions. I've just bought a new xbox, the old trusty xbox (date of manufacture: October 05) has coughed up its last diseased lung and is going to be laid to rest at the bottom of my wardrobe. I wanted to buy an Elite but was put off by the price and the need to send off for a Data transfer kit, so i've bought an Arcade xbox and i am using my old hard drive. As part of the bundle i've got Gears of War 2 and Lord of The Rings Conquest. I hate GoW but i think i'm gonna have to give it another chance, if i still don't like it i will just trade it for something else (probably when Street Fighter comes out).

So hopfully i wont suffer from phantom unreadable (often brand new) discs and all the problems that i had with the old box.

I'm thinking of opening up my old xbox and using it for a novelty purpose... any suggestions are welcome, at the moment my best idea is to use it as a flower pot.
