  Decisions, Decisions

  

  So finally I had a chance to once again call Microsoft and their wonderful customer service. I tell you it takes forever to get through to them. I spend nearly a good 45 minutes on the phone just listening to their cheap music until I finally got to speak to an representative. You'd think that when you had your 360 repaired once before it would be easy, but no Microsoft wants you to do it all online, but the problem is its just as annoying as waiting on the phone. So anyway I tell them my 360 once again isn't working and this time its to do with the RROD. They tell me to please hold on once again while they get my information.

  Thankfully it wasn't as bad as last time when I was on the phone, but still the way Microsoft manages their customer support its no wonder people don't like them. So I'm getting it repaired, but that's where I come to this decision on my own. I've had it with Microsoft and their crappy products so once I get my Xbox 360 repaired I'm selling it and using the money I get for it to buy a PS3 and since my friend is willing to buy my 360 version of Modern Warfare 2 off of me. I'll have enough money to buy one. At least I can trust Sony to not make a crappy products as my PS1 and PS2 still work pretty well. So count me out as being a 360 owner and being a future PS3 owner.

  One last thing, I've been thinking of starting up a union myself and it would pretty be based on one of my favorite series Sonic SATAM. I was wondering would anyone else be interested in joining as well if I made the union?

  That's all for now folks! See you next blog!

  Xbox 360 went out again...

  

  "I'm as patience and good natured as the next villain, but this is enough to make me blow my stack!" - The wise words of Dr. Ivo Robotnik

  Pretty much what I quoted is what I'm feeling right now. I'm really mad to the point where I want to throw my Xbox 360 out the window. The darn thing decided yesterday that it would RROD once again. I was in the middle of playing some Sonic The Hedgehog 2 and it turned off on me. I didn't know what happened. So I turned it on again and all of a sudden I got the three red lights. I was like oh ****! First I got the E74 error and now I get the RROD? What the heck is up with 360s? Did Microsoft make them this way so they could get there money's worth?

  It had to come at the worst time as well! Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 is coming out on Tuesday and my 360 doesn't even work right now. Oh well I guess it looks as though I'll have to call Microsoft again and see what they can do. I got a three year warranty on it, but after the E74 error and now the RROD I'm thinking of saving up my money and just getting a PS3 since its cheaper and I've heard it doesn't give you as many problems as the 360 does.

  I guess just like with their operating systems its going to take Microsoft a while to figure out how to get things working properly. So in the meantime I guess its back to playing some of my older consoles until I can get the stupid thing fixed or unless Microsoft gives me a bunch of flack then I'm just going to give up on 360 for good. Thanks for listening everyone and see you on the boards!

  Some weekly purchases

  

  Send In The Clones!

  I usually wouldn't talk about what I purchase, but since I got some pretty good comments last time I've decided to get it a second chance and share with everyone what I bought within the last week. So let's get started!

  

  Sonic The Hedgehog The Complete Series

  Originally I had the complete collection for a while, but I bought it used and the DVDs started to wear out and skip so I decided to replace it and I got the whole series new from Best Buy which is a surprise since originally I was going to pick up Naruto Shippuden Vol. 2, but for all 26 episodes at $14.99 it was a steal.

  

  Sonic The Hedgehog Comic #184

  I really haven't told a lot of people, but I'm a major nerd when it comes to the Sonic The Hedgehog comics since its the only other thing I read besides manga and I've gotten most of the issues of the Sonic comics and #184 was one that I wasn't able to get my hands on for a while, but thankfully my local comic shop had a copy and I was able to finally catch up in the comics. Pretty good deal for $2.25.

  

  Conker's Bad Fur Day

  Ah yes I was lucky enough to get my hands on a copy of Conker's Bad Fur Day since its so hard to find, but thankfully E-Bay does wonders when you look enough. This is perhaps the funniest game I've played in a while and I can't put it down. Its wrong on so many levels, but yeah I find myself still wanting to play it. Expect a review in the future from me on this game. I've also got my reserve down for Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and today I paid off the rest of my reserve on it. So now I just have to wait until next week to get it.

  

  Well that's pretty much all I bought for this week. I might share with everyone what I got next week. Until the next blog later!
