...last night turned out pretty good.

Yeah, the launch day (+1 week) console Red Ringed on me last night just as I was about to sit down with Halo 3.  As soon as I got off the phone with Microsoft to order my coffin, I started checking the finances.  The wife asked me if I wanted to get an Elite a few weeks ago so the option was still on the table.  I didn't feel like waiting 3-4 weeks to play H3 so I made a call to a friend who works for Wal-Mart (10% emp discount ftw) and off we went to get me an Elite.  30 minutes later I was the proud father of a new Elite.

So what would be the worst thing that could happen to you on Halo 3 launch day?

Yeah. That. The Red ring of death.

Funny thing is, I know I should be throwing shit, Kool-ade man-ing my walls, etc., but I'm not. I'm just demoralized. Of all the fucking times this could of happened, it happened today. I know what will happen, I've already called M$ and ordered my coffin. I imagine I'll be heading out to the store and grabbing an Elite tonight but still, I could be playing Halo 3 right at this moment.

Yeah, this pretty much sums up my thoughts on the whole Mt. Dew/Halo campaign.
