E74 error = Epic Fail
By mongoose 14 Comments
So the other day whilst playing Battlestation Pacific, the screen goes kinda funny and bizarre graphical glitches appear. I'm not that bothered to be honest because I understand computers and realise that they do what they want, so I let it do its thing.
I started to pay slightly more attention when I went back to the dashboard and found it in pieces and moving of its own accord. Again, I understand that it does what it likes but it felt like liberties were being taken now.
So it seemed my Xbox was broken. Again. And it was out of its 1 year warranty. Again.
Thankfully, 5 towel wrapped xbox hours later, I get the E74 error message on my screen, meaning that I can send it to Germany for repair.
I have to say I'm thouroughly annoyed with Microsoft. The Xbox has serious issues that still haven't been figured out (mine was a new version as of mid 2008) and it's pretty much unnaceptable. I am, of course, accepting it.
If I had the money though I wouldn't hesitate in purchasing a PS3.
What number of Xbox are you guys on? I've heard rumours of people still rocking launch 360s...
