Microsoft 'poisoned' my 360?

Okay, so about 10 months ago my xbox broke with the 'e74 error' (basically RROD). I called MS and they said it wasn't covered under warranty so they would fix it for $160... so I hung up on them. I sent it in to some random dude and he fixed it for $60.

A couple of months ago my 360 didn't have any video output on my tv so was due for another repair. I thought it was worth a shot to call MS so I did and somehow they said my 360 WAS covered under warranty and that they'd fix it for free. So I sent it into them and got it back 2 weeks later with a letter on top saying that they didn't repair it because it had been tampered with......... when I turn my 360 on now it flashes both red and green (it wasn't doing that before I sent it in) and I've been doing some research and it seems that this is what Microsoft do when people send in modded 360s - they permanently fuck them up beyond repair as a punishment for tampering with their product (is that even legal?).



So yeah, Microsoft fucked up my 360. I'm just gonna sell all my games/accessories + the broken console and eBay and then go and buy a ps3. Cool story eh.

FF franchise has been like dead for ages (in reference to the quality of the gameplay and storylines [even more so than usual regarding storylines]). Real shame.

Yeah lol I couldn't believe it at first. But I looked up the problem and everyone that had it said it happened after MS returned their 360 with a letter saying it wasn't repaired because it had been tampered with..... I knew they were cunts but I didn't know how big.

Pretty funny though.


EDIT: So yeah, I will probably end up getting one of those new slim ps3s when I have enough money.

I knew that you wouldn't change, but I bit my tongue and swore,
Resigned myself to carry on despite you.
But you would not match my stride and cried,
"Foul! Foul! How could you expect me to care about somebody else?"
And after all, who would expect anything else from you?

I guess, the Xbox really took North America away from the Playstaion. I think I would pick Final Fantasy over any Fps/Halo, though.

The overall ideas that square-enix come up with are what win me over, not the story. I personally think that's what most fps lack now a days, originality (besides halo and gears of war).

I just checked the FF13 website and theres a 3rd trailer coming out tomorrow, I'm now excited.

I liked Squaresoft over Square-Enix :( There was a huge leap in graphics when they merged though, so that was an upside.

p.s. sorry for having sub-conversation in your thread, Simon.

Yeah, we've learned that you're narrow minded. All my games and accessories are in perfect working condition. As for the console, obviously I'm going to say it's faulty and what's wrong with it in the item description...

Yeah lol, was a bit silly but I was looking around on the internet and a fair few people said they sent in their 360s that already had been opened up and they still got theirs repaired so I thought it was worth a shot.... Had a feeling they'd notice and send it back but I didn't expect those Indian bastards to royally fuck it up
