today I'll stick it to M$--selling my 360 once and for all!
I was one of many people who brought the xbox 360, and have it die on me due to it's bad hardware issues (I suspect bad overheating, or just bad hardware period). And despite all the hype about Halo 3, I simply refuse to send M$ anymore of my money! Soooo...later this morning, I'm going to sell my replacement 360 and al the games :evilgrin: They've had to spend a billion dollars to establish a massive repair turnaround system and extend the warranty to 3 years. To me, that;s like saying,"yeah our product is bad, deal with it" And I won't mention some of the racists morons on Xbox Live. I have a good mind to email those M$ bastards and let 'em now why I've dumped them :evilgrin: :bounce:

3. There's something about an explosion that taps into the most primitive parts of the brain
Sheer terror, yet fascinating.

Explosions are like big cats: The one that kills you is the one you never see. The sight of the flash, the fireball, the mushroom cloud, means you SURVIVED.

4. naaawwww
I think taking that money and saving up for a Sony PS3 will be a better statement :evilgrin: With my first car I'm building up my credit, so around Christmas I might try to get a Best Buy card, if not, I'll have enough saved up for one.

5. so...you'll stick to Microsuck
by having already paid for the xbox and the games (meaning they already have your money) by selling it to someone who will simply buy more games and continue funding Microsuck? How is that sticking it to them? Seems to me like you are simply saving yourself a headache (with which I have no problem)...but sticking it to Microsuck? Hardly...
