Today was not a good day

Post by BryWI » Sat May 16, 2009 2:29 am

So today was the second day of my vacation. I had accomplished quite a bit. I got the brakes fixed on my car today ($400 :evil: ). I finally cleaned out my storage room. It was a real mess. I just started throwing computer parts and cardboard boxes in there and would just shut the door. One of the last few things I put in there was a futon frame that was messed up. After that I couldn't even walk in there. So I dissasembled that frame and cleaned the room up. A friend stopped by in the middle of that time and were watching some concert DVDs on my Xbox360. So after I finished up that room and took out all the garbage, I decided I would sit down and play some more of the new Fallout 3 DLC. 3 RED LIGHTS. ARGGGGH. Why couldn't it of happened after my vacation. :( I only had the console for a little over a year. Thankfully the 3RL problem is covered for 3 years. Maybe I'll dust off the 3do and figure out N.O.B. some more.

3RL, it's not a matter of if but when.

Weird thing is I didnt leave the thing running forever. It is in a non-smoking environment. It was always well ventilated. I took very good care of it. Those things don't matter though I guess.

That sucks (although I admit to looking forward to more N.O.B. comparisons)

ouch that sucks man. Im thankful for my insurace even though I dont use it much. I'd hate to be in that situation. If you don't mind me asking, how'd you break it?

Btw, m$ will sort out my console with no costs but it's just gonna take a while unfortunatly.

And on the front of playing N.O.B. , on the emulator It kept freezing on me and it is doing the same on my console. On my console though im sure it is because my cd drive is on it's last life. It is getting difficult for the machine to read discs no matter what I do. Need one of those lasers bad if anyone ever finds one, or maybe a working IDE drive mod. :/
