I really wish I was still enthusiastic about video games. Haven't played regularly since Nintendo 64.

So whatever halo 3 skills i had is gone and I wont be on for about a month.

Happened to me earlier this month...still waiting for it to get back. I couldn't wait though and bought the Halo edition right after it broke.

I got mine back in less than 2 weeks.
Oh and Red X, I'd rather have some trouble playing the best games and lots of 'em than have no trouble playing a small amount of ok-ish games...not to start a console war here or anything

weeks is unacceptable.
I have heard of class action law suits against Microsoft for the wait time.
Just to put things in perspective, my Nintendo Wii had an issue with outputting video. I sent it in for repairs and had it back 2 days After I shipped it. So I figure 1 day to get there, it was repaired and shipped back the same day. That is how it should be done.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Ya I got the same best buy thing cause the guy told me that you dont send it in if it breaks, you just get a replacement. I also have a little fan sitting on top of the XBox just to help things out on the heat issue. The damn thing still creates a lot of heat...

Does anyone know if the Elite version can be affected by the "red ring" as well?
