Hey guys, Twist here, and i know i havent been around lately due to me actualy..... playing my 360. Anyway if anyone remembered I won my 360 from Everyten minutes. Just like  a few of my other contest winners, their 360s broke on them but fortunatly (or unfortunatly) theirs happened soon after it came out. Unfortunatly for me however, my death occured about an hour ago. Now just to make things clear, I loved my 360, i actually dusted it off, bought every accesory for it, gently handled with it, you know loved it. The death was coming ever since a week ago with my 360 freezing and then glitching and when restarted showed 3 rings of light, but today it was finalized when it shut off after play GoW with my best friend. Anyway to the point of the thread.

I called up microsoft and asked them about my console and they said what I heard from so many others, your console is not currently under the warranty so you must pay $140 to repair it. I then asked about since i won my 360 from Mountain dew, if I got some kindof special warranty, but she just told me that was between me and Mountain dew. So I did alittle research, actually my research was about a year ago from the fear of my 360 breaking.

I found a website about "Implied Warranty" where it is talked about if your 360 broke, you are under a implied warranty that it should be fixed ( Link: http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/conline/pubs/buspubs/warranty.htm#top ), and since i live in North Carolina, I should be under it for 4 years. This apparently worked for one guy, (Link: http://forums.xbox-scene.com/lofiversion/index.php/t588944.html )

My option before i rely on this, is that I can contact Mountain Dew/Pepsi and convince them to get microsoft to repair my 360 for free, but I cant call until monday, however i emailed them.

If any lawyers out there can tell me any advice on the subject or can tell me if this will work or not, please reply, and if anyone else wants to respond, go ahead.
