Attention! Attention! Attention,
Over the week the worst thing that could ever happen to someone happened. Think of the worst thing that has ever happen to you and multiply it by 10. I mean, so bad life should have ended and I come back in the next life as Lil Wayne (greatest rapper alive). Ready? Brace your self, take a deep breath…..
MY XBOX BROKE!!!
What a tragedy? How could something like this happen to me? I of all people is left with just a box. I’ve watched people handle their xbox 360 terribly. I’m talking about kick it, spill juice on it, and let kids/adults step on it and their xbox is working fine. But I move it from my room to the living room and BOOM! Malfuntion, Pimp down, 10-42, get to the car b***h (in my Katt Williams voice).
Have you ever put in a game and seen three red lights pop up on your xbox? I have!! Everyone knows red means bad, stop, go away. My xbox is done. I have no idea what to do with it. It was working perfectly the day before. This is an outrage.
Dear Mr. Microsoft……

Microsoft should give me a brand new xbox. I’ve had that xbox forever, which could lead to yes maybe the life expectancy on this one has run up. But I got it right when xbox 360 first came out. I have been a loyal customer for years. I have bought tons of games, controllers, headsets, and updates from them for years; at least they could show a little customer appreciation. Don’t you agree?
This may seem insignificant/ unimportant to you but think….what if this was your xbox? Wouldn’t you want someone to care? This xbox has been with me through the hard times with family, through the psycho drama break ups, and the lonely high off life Friday nights. What is a brother to do now?
Microsoft is about to get a call tomorrow. And if demands are not met, we all should boycott their programs, games, computers, etc. Anything with the name Microsoft on it or that little blue square with the four colors on it is to be boycotted. I think I should start a march on Washington. Who has Obama’s House number? Where is Kanye West when you need him?

Someone needs to give me some type of direction or a new xbox!
THIS IS WHY I LOVE SONY!!!!!!! I can't say I know the pain of sitting in front of 52 inch flatscreen with a bottle of hennesy in one hand and joysick in other only to come face to face with red circles on my console. I do however know the joy sitting beside somone with a bottle of hennesy in one hand and joystick in the other and laughing my ass off as he constantly restarts his Xbox prayin for different results. But i "rent alota games" so u welcome to use my shit to test them for your blogs
ReplyDeleteI call this the red circle of death. It is almost inevitable that when this happens, the x box has to be sent in to be fixed for even might need a new hard drive. I had this happen to me and the cost of fixing it just pissed me off enough that I sold it and bought a brand new one. The playstation is way better in quality (I have had my playstation since the first year it came out) but the xbox has the best games and better picture quality. It is so sad how these companies can rip you off and expect you to pay for their flawed technical skills.
ReplyDeleteAh, that sucks! Like Bane said, bitch and complain like hell and they should repair that for you!
ReplyDeleteIt happened to me about a year ago now, and it was horrible to be without my X-Box for a month... the current crop of PC games sucks bad, and I had no other alternative!
Stay strong!
No! The dreaded "red circle of death"! How old was your X-Box? I ask because I thought MS had addressed the problem. I'll agree with Bane as well--if you complain enough, then you should be able to get them to fix the problem (since it is a longstanding issue).
ReplyDeletePersonally, I switched from the Playstation 2 to the Wii to World of Warcraft, so I missed the PS3/Xbox360 experience. But I did have a friend who suffered through the red circle of death. MS replaced his system for him. Good luck!
As much as I back up how hard that blows, I'm really not justfied in saying I truly feel your pain... I'm still kicking it old school with NES. Granted it's via an emulator and downloaded Roms, but you still get the feel.
ReplyDeleteThat same thing happened to a buddy of. The infamous Red Circle of Death or whatever its called. What pulled a line from Seinfeld and tried the ole Kramer trick...which you may want to look into. Send your X-Box to your buddy across town, *insured* and day or two later, you open it up, plug her in and..WFT my Xbox isn't working anymore!
I don't honestly remember if it worked, but at this point, what do you have to lose?
I had my PS2 for 3 years and the same thing happened. It would turn on about half the time, but it wouldn't read any cds. The remedy was to take it apart and dust the innards. Mind the fact this incident occured in the desert, so there was dust everywhere. That was 3 years ago and it still works today. Invest in Sony.
ReplyDeleteDang, I hate the red ring of death. It seems like everyone I know with a 360 gets it at one time or another. I prefer and own a PS3 myself. It is a blue ray player and game system too. Plus the online play is free. Did Microsoft ever replace your system for you?
