Wow that has to be the exact opposite of printing money.

Under normal circumstances, this is to be expected. It's a small number.

Having said that, this is definitely what you do not want to see during the holiday season where people are deciding between the two systems with the past memories of 360 failures still fresh in some minds.

Yeah I agree, especially since it currently can't be fixed.

The RRoD on the 360 or the Xboned making confetti out of the Call of Duty discs? I never had a RRoD happen with the S(lim) model.

Ah, got cha. Well I hope this teaches people a lesson: don't buy an Xboned.

Well, since the discs are undamaged, it doesn't technically eat the discs.  The drive itself fails to work and you have that horrible death rattle.

Apparently Microsoft just waves hardware past QC when they're on a deadline.  At least the 360 was capable of reading discs out of the box, even if it red-ringed later.  But complete mechanical failure of the BD drive out of the box is a little much.

Commander Shepard: *stares blankly at a video of scantily clad asari dancers* ...What kind of hotel is this?
Liara T'Soni: It is a luxury resort with an... exotic edge.  Azure is slang for a part of the asari body in some places on Illium.
Shepard: Where?
Liara: The lower reaches, near the bottom.
Shepard: I meant, "where on the asari body?"
Liara: So did I.

Who [tornado fang]ing wrote this?

Also apparently this is because you cannot swear on skype.

They'll ban you for swearing in an uploaded video as well.

Very classy, Microsoft.

Seriously, though, that is petty, and that grammar is horrible.

Guess they're trying to set an example for their prepubescent CoD fanbase?  Also they need to learn how to grammar, that sentence makes no sense.

You would think Microsoft wouldn't have this problem this often. :\

According to the second link it seems the ban is temporary, still that's really stupid to ban without a strike system not that the idea of going that far isn't stupid in the first place.  Especially in a private conversation on Skype.  Seriously Microsoft's game division would be better run by monkeys at this point.
