Massive video problems, so gonna have to get it repaired most likely. I get sound, but all that appears on the screen with/without the HDD on is just a bunch of moving white dots. This is why I'm asking for another 360 for my birthday, just an Arcade one, so that I have a back up when these things happen.

All the time with the Wii you hear too much about 'casual gamers'. What is a casual gamer? This is how I believe gamers are:

Hardcore Gamers- These are the gamers that ether make their living off of playing games, or those who really don't have a life (see Make Love, Not Warcraft). This includes playing games constantly and being a professional gamer.

Casual Gamers- The way I see it, we're mostly all casual gamers. Casual gamers play games ether a little to a lot, a couple hours a week, but don't let it get in the way of their own lives. Going to play Halo 3 at a friend's house, trying to get those last few achievements in Call of Duty 4, etc, all make up the casual gamer aspect. If you play video games often, couple hours a week, and enjoy it, then you're a casual gamer.

Extreme Casual Gamers- Gamers here fall into the Wii category. These people really aren't gamers at all, such as little kids playing shovelware from the Wii, grandma and grandpa playing bowling with their grandkids, etc, etc. These people only play a few certain games that are extremely easy to get into, and really don't have any other experience with games. People like this could play for an hour a week to several hours a week, but overall only stick to those simple and easy games to get into.

Why am I doing this? ...no idea.
