PS3 have great RPG and war games. They're my favourites, too. I like the Battlefield franchise. BF: Bad Company, BF2, and 2142 are tops.

Warranty will be void if he opens it up. I take it Microsoft still are incapable of sorting it out for themselves.

WHY! OH WHY! WHY IS IT BAD STUFF ALWAYS HAPPENS TO ME?!

for the 2nd time i have experianced the red ring of death (RRD). it happened earlier today about 5 pm. there i was enjoying rock band, playing on my own trying to get them guitar solos down in the hard modes. i decided to go back to an earlier song to try and play it and get it at 100 %. before the song started i paused it and went to get something to drink. i come back and try to unpause it but nothing. it wouldn't unpause. i ejected the disc and the image was still on the tv. i turned the 360 off and turned it back only to be greeted by the RRD. i cursed. i couldn't believe it. this is my 2nd 360 and it barely made it to a full year. well guess what? it was about this time last year that the first 360 i had died as well. one year? is that it. i hardly even use it alot. i can play about one hour and then don't play for days. what gives?

so i call microsoft and get everything sorted out. this time around they're going to be sending me a bigger box then last time. mainly cuz this time around they want me to also send the power supply, also known as "the brick". so it's that and the console minus the Hard drive. i can't believe it. so now i have to wait 3 days for the box to arrive, take to UPS to send it off and wait about a week for another 360 to arrive. the last time this happened it only took a week for me to get a new one. that's cuz i live 8 miles from the repair site. i had a feeling this 360 was going to die on me at some point, the manufacturing date was from the first set of 360s that were sold. i've heard that the newer 360s have something different with their power supply so i'm hoping that's why they're asking for me to send off the brick too.

although i found some humor in the way my 360 died. there i was going to play an earlier song. i paused it and tried to unpause it only to have it die on me. what song was it that i was going to play? it was "don't fear the reaper".
