the army spent a lot of money just to destroy an xbox.

If they would have done that to Ps3, they would find forcefield around it and it would transform to Metal Gear and eat them alive.

let's be happy their are no casualties.

@Boutros,  still I am surpised they can do that.  'Let's shoot some stuff we are bored'.

Jesus guys you think Marines could get "fired" for something like this? The CO would most likely laugh or join in. Hoorah.

The video was a bit funny but stupid. It's just a waste of resources.

And Squilliam is right, my PS3 is fucking loud.

So funny!

More ammunition are used in target practice than live combat. This isn't ideal but there not a big deal of difference the 360 and a bullseye. (Well the 360 is probably harder to hit?).

Why would that be a waste of money? Soldiers still have target practise while stationed abroad. I doubt they just woke up, took their weapons and went behind the camp and unleashed on an xbox unsupervised.

I remember when i was in the army and we got to try out alot of different weapons, we set up an broken computer and destroyed it with our M82A1 (or as we call it AG90). http://www.vogue2008.com/upload/r02.jpg

A waste of resources? That's your typical tabloid cliche. There is more of a chance that the last breath everyone just took is more a waste of resources than the bullets used on that x360 (in the case of the US army).

@mibuokami
You are right on your first point not sure about the second.

Thank you! People should cut the Army boys some slack! There is nothing wrong with what they did there!
