My XBOX 360 is back!
My console shipped out last night at 6PM and arrived at my door this morning at 9:15AM. Upon opening the box, I found a letter explaining that they replaced the console rather than repair it. The new console has a manufacture date of 12/12/2005, so, hopefully, they have resolved the problems that affected the first few batches of consoles.
I've played a couple of the games that caused my old console to flake out consistently (Hexic HD and Geometry Wars) and everything seems to be working fine.
I'm going to try out Madden 06 and Kameo again before giving the "all clear."

Congrats on getting it back, at least. Remember, you have to return to work on the third. Don't make Jay and I come haul you out of your house, a stinking, bearded mess with a cramped hand.

Twinkie : 11:10 AM Hopefully, NHL 2006 will come out soon, so I can kick your ass on it like I did back as the Tau house. And Happy Yak Shaving Day to you, too!

Perrine : 1:22 AM I strongly suggest checking out the demo of madden (and NHL for that matter) before spending your hard earned money on them.
