So that’s it then, my Xbox 360 is useless. Well, not entirely useless - I can play on the Dashboard all I want, but as soon as I go to play a game, I get 3 minutes into it and the entire system locks up.
Which means I have at least 5 weeks to wait to finish BioShock. Son of a bitch.
As I pull the 360 from my console shelves, I can’t help but look at my past consoles - the PS1, PS2, GameCube, Dreamcast, Xbox 1, Genesis - and marvel at the fact that they have all managed to live long, healthy lives without ever once giving me a problem.
Maybe, some day, Microsoft will figure out and fix their design flaws in the 360, but by then, it will be time to move on to the next generation.
