That's right. When my boss's original 360 went south and showed him red rings during an intense frag, he ripped it apart in anger then bought a used 360 in the next 5 minutes on ebay. When he came to work the next day, he saw we had a Elite 360 in stock, and he bought it then and there, saying the ebay 360 will be used for "back up".
Hes a crazy Gears fan.. He blatantly told the store manager that he was taking November off for "Gears 2 Fragfest Purposes"

Her reaction, of course, is un-printable

QFT.

I've been on it constantly since I got it Friday night. I'm already ranked at level 20 on Call of Duty 4 on XBOX Live.

lol And I know... the store manager would grab a 360, plug Gears in, and frag your boss to oblivion in November.

That would be awesome. I then could take over the store for my own nefarious purposes.

I only have got the guitar, so either lead or bass, don't expect me to sing you know I'm planning to get the drum set too, but it'll take some time to get a hang on it I suppose so it'll be awhile till I dare to jump online with it.

Congrats on coming aboard the 'nextgen' train!

Did you get an extended warranty with it? Xbox360s are known for being ticking bombs.

Five months. That’s the average amount of time each Xbox 360 system has lasted before dying in our home. Yes, we use surge protection. No, we don’t beat up the hardware.

You guys are making me question my investment in the XBOX 360. I spent a ****load on this thing. It better last me a long time.
