Well, as you could probably guess from the title... My XBox finally died on me. It will not read any games anymore and just blinks a yellow and green light continuously, then a red and green light when it is telling you it is broken... :(

I guess I will have to buy a new one either tomorrow or Friday.. :(

Wow, what a piece of shit... Don't they do repairs on them, though, for like $50?

Apparently, it is a motherboard problem that needs to be repaired, and no store I called will do it. They all said to ship it to Microsoft for the repair. A new XBox would be faster, and almost as expensive in the end after shipping and whatnot. So, it's not worth it.. :(

If you trash your xbox, make sure you yank the hard drive first... and any other components that you might could put into a computer.

Got it back, but not without a slight hitch. I went to EB Games, and they had a sign saying they would buy back your broken XBox and give you a $30 discount on a new one, or a $50 discount on a used one. So, I got a new one with that deal, but of course my dumb ass fucking left Halo 2 in the broken one CD Rom and had to wait another to play it anyway.. Thank God they were actually honest and gave it back to me. I would have killed someone..

Literally.
