 My Xbox 360 has returned to me courtesy of the nice driver from UPS. Same serial number, same manufacture date on the label, but I’m thinking it has a brand new system board as the unit, which previously had NXE was reset back to the old blade interface. I’m guessing all they did was pop open the chassis, replace the board with a spare and reprogram the ROM with the original serial number. I’m oddly okay with that :)

14 days from first hint of issue to retuned unit. I’m left to wonder how many months this unit will last. The first was 23 months the second was 11.

Thanks to the thanksgiving holiday my box took a bit longer than I would have liked to get to the repair center in TX. Six days and it's been recived and the repair is in process. Hopefully I'll get lucky and get my box back sooner rather than latter so I can return my loaner. :)

I really want to be writting about how much I love Left 4 Dead and how fun it is. I'd also like to write about how Gears 2 and Left 4 Dead stack up against each other. Instead I'm writing about this:

At least I still have my shipping box from last year so I don’t have to wait for that to show up. Bet on me getting it back before Christmas this time?

Woot, looks like NXE is going out to everyone that signed up for a chance at the preview. :)

Tis the season to have too many games on the market and not enough time or money for any of them.

I’ve been trying to get through Dead Space for a couple weeks now with mixed success. There is some part of me that wants to think I’m still good at playing games, yet there’s another part of me that wonders if I ever really was. In either case I’ve found myself stuck making my second visit to medical. That’s bothersome because I’m having an absolute blast playing the game and I want to get past this meat grinder and back to sneaking around the spooky ship.
