And So It Begins

Last week my Xbox 360 decided it didn’t like playing games any more. In fact it decided that it liked freezing a lot more than doing anything else. My 360 actually had a pretty long history of freezing as I know it happened on at least five different games.

Last week was the worst though; freezing three times in two different games in under 20 minutes. It was time. I called Microsoft once before to report it and they cleared out my memory. That didn’t work this time. And so they said it was time to send it to Texas.

Luckily Microsoft has recently changed their return policy for the better so I didn’t pay for shipping and they sent me a fantastic box. A box I received today. It had really nice packing material foam and a bag for my 360 and all sorts of neat stuff. Click the pics for larger view...




It also had these fantastic instructions for everything I had to do. It will go out tomorrow. Off to Texas where someone will open her up and gut her. Poor thing. She’s too young to undergo this alone.

For those of you who haven’t had problems with your 360, good luck. And keep on playing. Unfortunately this seems all too common. Epically when you hear about people being on their seventh Xbox. At least with this new policy I will be getting my Xbox back, and not another unit that may have other problems with it.
