Do Not Grieve, Soon I Will Be One With The Matrix

I used to think I had suffered for my hobby, in that I had 3 Xbox360s show the dreaded red ring o' doom, glaring at me, akin to the great eye of Sauron. Promising nothing but torment and hopelessness, until I reveal my extended warranty and get me a new one. Take that faulty appliance!

In a way this made me feel to be part of a grand brotherhood of gaming, a trial that, overcome, makes us better! Faster! Stronger! Or at least causes us to record parody songs about the experience

But it seems that I don't know what the blues is. Across the gaming news sites is the tale of one poor individual who is on his 12th Xbox 360!

I used to think I was determined for sticking it out through 3 failed 360s. I mean, imagine buying a microwave; now, if you buy a microwave and it breaks in less than a week, you take it back to the store, get a new one, shrug and say "wow, that was bad luck. Now if the same brand of microwave breaks, perhaps filling your apartment with deadly microwave radiation and giving you super powers to fight crime, err, where was I going with this? Oh right, if the second microwave breaks in less than a month, would you get the same brand of microwave again? Apparently I would, and after that third microwave breaks apparently I would pony up for a 4th one. This guy has had this happen to him eleven times!

Gamers, we may not be smart, but we sure are dedicated!

Speaking of which, the new Xbox 360 games are now in our catalogue for you to start putting reservations on! No promises when they will be here!
