now let's just.... IT'S BROKEN!

[CloggedDonkey]

now, before I get started, let me tell you I have yet to really pick a side for the console wars as I believe they can live in harmony, but don't. anyway, on with the rest.

so, I got a replacement Xbox360 as my first one is about explode(it's a limited edition special one, so it is being displayed), my second one was slowly dieing(wasn't playing my games, one by one they where dying), and the one I just got is fucked up beyond belief(take you're average pick axe and jam it into an Xbox360 and you should get an accurate representation). anyway, what is the worst that something has ever gone without detonating into an atomic explosion.

The RRoD's I've had with my 360's.
That is really the only thing that has gone wrong with my technology.

And hi, Furburt.

My computer has a nasty habit of randomly restarting. After doing this about 6 times in a row a BSOD came up.

One good cleaning later and it worked a treat.

 

[The Real Sandman]

I got a massive (and some how flammable) splinter from changing a pillow case.

I'm guessing I deserved it. :/

 

[Alpha Centauri]

Well I set fire to a pack of NON FLAMABE stuff, it was true it didnt catch fire it EXSPLOEDED

How about a Windows install disc that overspun in the disc drive until it shattered in the drive? Sounded like a gunshot, and my brother nearly crapped himself (he was standing next to me when it happened). That and the solder worked loose on the 360 about a week after I sold it to my brother... I'm thinking he's a bad omen.

I turned on a bedside lamp.

The lightbulb exploded...

YEY! Lets finally play Super Smash Bros Brawl, after waiting months to play.....hey wait what the f^@?!! cant read disc? what send off to get fix could take three weeks to get back?? *breaks down and cries*

By any chance did this happen to anyone else, with the old Brawl dual layer disc problem?

my phone sometimes turns itself on

doesnt sound so bad, right? until you suddenly get a call in the middle of a wedding...

during a moment of prayer...and the wedding is full of angry old christians...and your agnostic...

 

[Nex-Falx]

I had a Xbox that was a freakin' trooper... multiple RR's fixed by towel trick... Finally got sick of it so I got a new arcade and just slapped the HD on it.

Now I have 1 1/2 Xboxs I suppose.

It angered my cousin to no end.

OT : I'm a RRoD man, plus the countless errors I've seen with my PCs over the years. One of them exploded when its power line got struck by lightning and its fuse malfunctioned.

Other than those and my bizarre calculator that dies often but responds to CPR, I've got nothin'.

Unless you count certain sandbox games freezing my 360. SR2 and Fable 2 cannot be played because they just freeze my Xbox.

My 360 RRoD'd. That's about the worst that's happened to me. I know, laaaaaame.

 

[I Max95]

my xbox 360 broken in such away that it just taughted me i turned it on and i heard it but didnot see it so i turn it off and mess around with the video cords turn it back on and still no video then i travel to the seventh circle of hell and back to get a new video cord that works with SD still no fucking video sent it in for repairs

my wii eject button broke the EJECT button so either i play one wii game for the rest of eternity or i find a way to get it out and send it in for repairs i got it out by performing surgery on the damn thing to push the button using sewing pins(my mom's, honest)

Everybody knows about the RRoD but yet so many people still buy 360s, its basically buying a pet fish and knowing it will eventually die.

I turned on a bedside lamp.

The lightbulb exploded...

That must have been frightening. I am usually relaxed when beside bedside lamps, so if the lightbulb exploded i'd freak out.

OT: My brain has been through alot but it hasn't exploded

I had a AA battery explode and rocket off my desk, it sounded like a gunshot. I was playing with it between my fingers as I browsed the net moments before.

Yeah, I was one of the arrogant few who thought they'd be lucky...heh heh. To be fair, though, a 360 is so much better than a fish. At least you don't have to worry about feeding it.

Yep.
But I've only paid for one of my four so I'm cool with that.
And my current 360 will go soon too.

 

[TheButtonMashEffect]

So you have had 4 and they have all broke? lol Really doesn't sell 360's does it.
