CAUTION- rant ahead...
So, a few weeks ago, I popped in DiRT on my xbox, and it froze after a few minutes of play time, I just thought it was an error from the disc itself, there was no "red ring" flashing anywhere. So I just switched off the console, and put it away. Now, just a few minutes before posting this blog, I popped in The Darkness, since I've been wanting to finish that game for ages, and make sure it wasn't the system that kept freezing. After less than a minute after the game loaded, it froze. I was starting to get pissed at that point. So as I got up to change discs, I see 3 red lights flashing...
The dreaded RRoD!
Now, I go over to where it was, note that I haven't switched it on in ages, I've kept it on a shelf in my room, and my room is usually never very warm, I always keep the A/C on. I put my hand on the back of the console, and it was really, really hot. Even though it's barely been on for 10 minutes. At this point I just said **** it. So, since last gen, i've owned all 3 systems. This gen, I got the Xbox last august, yes, I've only had it less than a year, I got the PS3 this january, saying that I only got it for the free online. Now, I only have my PS3. At least I'll get the multiplats. :(
And no, I won't be buying a new Xbox anytime soon, and I can't send it to M$ because,
1. I live in an "unsupported" region.
2. I don't care much if I do get a new one.
So, farewell Xbox,
