I've been lucky enough up until this point to not have encountered any problems with me Xbox 360 Elite. However that all changed last night. When I setup my 360 to play on my new Sony 52" T.v. the 360 froze, and when I tried restarting I got the red rings of death. Now I wasnt to concerned becuase I could jsut send it off and they'd repair it, right? Nope. I filed the online repair form, and it told me my warrenty has expired. WTF? I havnt even owned the system 3 years, and to my knowladge the elite hasnt even been out 3 years. So I dont see how this can be. I went to the dispute this warrenty form, and it told me they need a recite. No problem....However, the recite is so old theres no more text on it. Its a white peice of paper. So, I call up the support hot line. Not only could I barely hear the guy, but he was no help at all. He told me to go online and fill out the form, no realizeing that I had and thats how I got into the mess! Ugh, gonna call back in an hour to see again. Hopefully I get someone competent on the other end this time.

Well, it's been quite some time since I went to a midnight release for a game, Guitar Hero 3 actually. A little over a year ago. So I find it fitting that I return going to a release of a game that I have a Love/Hate relationship with. Whats the game you may ask? World of Warcraft. Thats right, I play it. Or did. I played from early 2005 of and on untill the early part of this year. With the new expansion being released, I find myself being drawn back in again. Now I know that some people have very bad feelings towards this game, but its one that not everyone will like, but those who do love it, and love spending their time in the world of Azeroth. So, off I go! I'll update you guys if anything fun or exciting happens, the GH3 one was quite the flop.

It's been a long time since I was active a gaming site, almost as long since I've actually played a video game. Before this October I've barely touched game for the past 9 months. Besides playing the occasional rock band at a party or a lan, trying GTA IV, I've been almost completely out of the gaming world. This, in part was due to (in my opinion) the lack of quality games lately. Before this month the last game I bought was GTA IV, and that was short lived, very short lived.

Now, most of you may not remember me from Gamespot, user name Shattyfattmas, but I use to visit and use the site everyday up untill this past year. As many of you know, Gamespot went, well downhill and I jumped off right away.

Now, however I find myself here, wanting to be a active member of Giantbomb. Where did this newfound inspiration come from. Well, quite simply, Fable II. A game I've been waiting for since I beat Fable 1 in 2004. The game crept up on me, but when it got huge i felt revived and my faith in the game industry was rekindled. So, now I'm ready to get back into it!
