not that kind of break, like ones with the Matrix Screen when you put in a game, or the 3 red lights of death

You want to break your 360 on purpose just to get a different drive? PLease tell me you are kidding, or are you retarded or something? You know, they do have pills for that now..

Exactly. What happens when you break it, send it back, wait 7 or 10 or 15 days to get it back, and you have the same damn drive that you had when you sent it out in the first place? What will you do then, break it again? Just be happy with you have. At least you HAVE a 360.

Well see, now that's a different thing all together. Now, I would agree to send it back. Freezing sucks.

No. Mine has only frozen twice since I got it on launch day. Once during CoD2 and once during NFS:MW.

I guess because Microsoft has conditioned the masses that machines are suppose to freeze up constantly, we don't think twice when our 360's are misbehaving.
Our 360's rarely freeze up. Our computers are all Apple, so those don't give us grief either. Microsoft for gaming, Apple for work. Though with all those spiffy duo-core intel based macs that are shipping now, even Penny Arcade is now converted and hopefully, games won't always be so slow to the Mac platform in the near future.

He's right. Just be happy you have a 360, please. My friend's 360 broke and Microsoft wouldn't take it back because it still worked, it just shut down every 5 minutes and got really hot so he had to take it back to Target where he first got it. Now he has to call back to Target every day to see if they got one in.
Besides, they are going to send you a refurbshed one anyways, it'll only have the drive if it is new(my assumption).

People come down on retarded people way too often. You know I just ran into a retard who worked at Long John Silvers and he was smiling the whole time while cleaning off a table. He came up to me and whispered in my ear "Do you want any shrimp sauce?" And I said "Nah that's ok, I'm good." And then he turned around and said while giggling, "I don't like shrimp sauce either!" and went back to cleaning.
My point is that all the mentally challenged people I've met in my life seem to be happy about the littlest things and maybe it's because they see something in life through a more positive light than "normal" people. Maybe like a child, pure and untainted by reality. Some nights, I wish I was retarded.
I'll be right back, I need to cry in a corner now.

Tell me about it. I know the 360 runs hot and all, but catching on fire? Come on, that's really hot.
CyZ:
I just re-read your post again. Man, that's deep dude. I have met my share of mentally challenged people as well, and you are correct when you say that it's like they are untainted by society, innocent in a way. I live down the street from an adult day care center and I watch them sometimes, and they are happy just by the smallest things. I wouldn't go as far as saying that I wish I were mentally challenged though, but I would love to have their innocent mind sometimes. That would be cool.

This is why I prefer dogs, and you don't need a doggy day care center. You can even leave them locked in a box, and nobody will put you in jail.

good luck... the only hting that sucks about the loud one is that when you try to play it at night so your parents dont wake up... i have to wait till they go to sleep so i can play :(

Theres a factory that makes and sells 360s about 34 miles from where I live, so if it starts acting up I'll only be 360 less for a while...

wow
i would just drive down there and demand a samsung drive
if that doesnt work i'll take a dump on the door hehe

About the whole fire thing, the whole reason they;re giving him all this stuff is because the system caught on fire due to poor construction of the console, probably a spark or something. I think the whole games for the rest of the year is just so he wont sue thier asses

Microsoft knew the 360s sucked, thats why they put the red lights in the first place..

Heres a novel concept - buy a new one. The new ones all have the quite Samsung drive and you could even switch out HDDs so you still have your saves.
I think I will buy that Fan Stand. Thanks NYTrigga101
Oddranger
March 18th, 2006, 10:16 PM
yeah I dont really mind the loudness of the disc drive.
can you really switch out your hard drives?? I just can't see them accepting that
cantuchthis
March 18th, 2006, 10:57 PM
Yeah, thats why they can come out - so you can bring all your saves to a friends xbox or something and play your games. But whoever your selling it too doesnt have to know you are switching the drives. You can even add internal HDDs if you fell like opening up your case and modding it. But I would not recommend it.

Mine actually broke on me, and getting the quieter drive didn't heal the pain of being without a 360 for 2 weeks.
