Listen up 360 fans, there are those of you out there that love your 360. There are those of you who would snuggle up to it on a cold winter’s day just to feel the warmth; then there are those of you that would take a bullet for it. No matter what kind of 360 freak you may be, I’m sure most of you have experienced some kind of hiccup with your system. Yes, the lovely Red Ring Of Death. After you say it, you called Microsoft only to have them send you a box to send your 360 away with so it could be repaired. Well after a week you get it back and you feel after that there’s nothing left to worry about, that everything is fixed. Well you’re wrong! You may not know this but there seems to be a new error in some Xbox 360’s. The E74 error. This is due by either a faulty AV connector or the graphics chip. If your Xbox was purchased within the 3 year mark of Microsoft’s extended warranty consider yourself lucky that all you have to do is give ol’ Microsoft a call and you’ll be able to send your unit hopefully with no trouble. Now those of you that are out of warranty…well…your also in luck (in a sense). Looks like Microsoft will give you a refund if you’ve spent any money on it to get it repaired but you have to act quickly, you have until November 1 2009 to put in your claim. You may think this is a long time away well it is, but if your like me you tend to forget about it, or think “ah I’ll do it another day” and end up completely forgetting and ending up to be S.O.L. So for the love of God (or the spaghetti monster or what ever deity you desire) If you haven’t fixed it yet, FIX IT or you already have, SEND IN YOUR REPAIR BILL before November 1 2009, you’ll be proud you did.

I think you meant “you’re” rather than “your”. You should learn the difference if you want to write for public consumption.
Did u know Mr. Blowcock that even if someone writes professionally there always one or two spelling mistakes that get let out. So give them a chance, personaly I don’t see you doing anything like this.
Microsoft’s XBox 360 Sucks plain and simple. Sure it’s “game” console, but you’re supposed to be able to watch Movies on it too. And you can. It’s just that there’s no separate controller (as there was with the first XBox), which means you have to use your game controller which you have to turn “on”, and can’t turn it off without bringing up a menu. Luckly, i got mine for Christmas, so i can’t really complain. ;)
