You know, I was defending VGChartz earlier today, but if you guys believe a post coming from a fucking blogspot article that cites a CUSTOMER SERVICE REP then there is no hope for this site.

Seems no more foolish than believing the shit Microsoft feeds you....

 

 

Both of you cool it.

Why are you always so angry?

At least MS has continuously delivered on what its promised - three year warranty, exclusive games and content, and more games.

Don't get me wrong, MS is an evil company, I just don't understand how you can think Sony is somehow better after all its broken promises & continuous delays.

oh btw, Sony called and said Home & FFXIII was on its way. Rumble is still next gen, BC is not, and the PS3's Exclusive "Potential" is right around the corner.

A "self-admitted Sony fanboy" (his own words in his October 24th blog entry) posting bad news about the 360 from a "trusted" but still anonymous "source"... How could this not be true?

Seriously how desperate are some people to post negative news stories about the 360 that they have to resort to using such questionable sources? But please continue grasping at straws because it's pretty entertaining. Not quite as entertaining though as watching the 360 lead in sales over Sony's flagship console.

MS Rep: Fall update will be big trouble


A trusted source working as a customer service rep for Microsoft has revealed that there will be some bad drama when the Xbox 360's Fall update hits on November 19th. He says the update could bring the dreaded "three red lights of death" issue roaring back to life.

The rep said that there has always been an influx of calls from owners of bricked Xbox 360s after every major Xbox 360 software update. Most of the complaints come from owners of launch consoles.

"The slick move by Microsoft here is that it's releasing the update on the 19th, just a couple of days after the extended warranty period for launch Xbox 360s end. The owners of these units are headed for some pretty tense times in the weeks to come,"" he said.

He adds "Our department is bracing itself from irrate callers after the update is released. I'm bringing some aspirin to work this holiday season," he adds.

**************************************************************

Now that is f***ed up. LOL.  I have one of those launch 360s.  I have been hit once already, this one could put me down for good.

 

You really should have just stopped at the bolded sentence.

A trusted customer service rep hmm?

Yeah, unless they name names I don't believe them.  Why?  Because many *many* times these type of stories are bullshit.  I remember one instance on this board when one clever guy stated he was in contact with a trusted Nintendo rep and showing pictures of Wii dev kits was against some sort of NDA.  Right...

OMG, A story of doom and gloom!

These are always present before something big like this.  I'm not saying it can't happen but I am saying it's unlikely.  I have the funny feeling they aren't going to release a major mandatory update that is going to brick all the launch consoles.

Lets just wait and see what happens on the 19th before jumping to conclusions, alright?

 



Anybody and his brother can create a site on blogspot. Don't ask me how I know, but a lot of porn sites are hosted there. It would take me about 10 minutes to make a site there and post whatever stupid crap I could think of. There is no way you can trust this information without any way to verify it.

You should be embarrassed for posting this. It doesn't even qualify as rumor. At best it's a fanboy's daydream.



Ugh, please don't let this update be my 2nd RROD. I'll be really upset with Microsoft if this gives me an RROD. I'm actually looking forward to this update. Everyone keep your fingers crossed. Luck be with all 360 owners!

Even if its not a true story it still has a point that if this does brick 360's from launch the owners are out of luck big time.
