Well bam, there it is.

This is the beginning of Vandal's month long journey of studying his 360, and figuring out why it is that Microsoft fails at fixing these things. This project was spawned out of them failing to fix my RROD 360, and it breaking down a week after getting it back. So Microsoft, balls in your court son. If I can fix this before you give me my money back, you fail, and you should hire me.

As shocking as the title may sound, I'm beginning to get fed up with video games in general. All my favorite genres are dieing thanks to the great casualization, and now all my systems are failing due to shoddy design. I've gone through 3 XBOX 360s so far, and now my warrranty JUST expired on my Halo 3 limited edition 360 just when I purchase Blazblue. I don't have the money to have the thing repaired. On top of that, my PC is dieing from old age as the bearings are saging. I've had to practically turn it on its side and let it lay on the ground. Gravity is the only thing keeping my PC functioning at this momment in time. About the only upside is my PS3 hasn't imploded on itself yet. You know what? Screw all these malicious developers pumping me for money, the shoddy manufacturing jobs on these platforms, and the general lack of appealing games this generation. I'm DONE!

Hey, I'm all for absurd video game challenges, but this is the most absurd, in your face peice of crap I've ever seen. For those that haven't heard, Prototype is a game about viruses, mutants, conspiracy, etc etc. Once you beat the game and complete all the side missions on gold, which is the best you can get, a message pops up saying, "Congratulations, you got gold, now can you get platinum?"



After spending so much time on those side missions, that is totally not cool bro.
