After its very recent and rudimentary over-hyped release, the Xbox 360 is proving to be the pile of typically-rushed shit I always knew it would be. Many owners are complaining of their $400 shit box freezing with either a black or white screen, after only 10-15 minutes out of the box.
Some are saying heatsink problems during shipping, others are saying HDD issues.
I say Bill has rushed the 360 to market in a race to beat Sony to the shelves… shame on you Bill, yet another reason I wouldn’t buy anything that has been manufactured by Micro$oft - you only get one chance to do it right… anyone remember the Nokia N-Gage?

I think all these problems are being hyped up. Most are very uncommon problems. The largest problem is the artificial shortage.
If he had rushed the 360 to beat the PS3 to the shelves, wouldn’t there releases be much closer. For example, wouldn’t it make more sense to conclude that if they both were shooting for a Dec. 1st release. Then MS pushed up there release.
No, thats not what happened, they stuck with there release the whole time. They never pushed it up. And if they felt there was a problem, they would have pushed it back, because they had tons of breathing room when it comes to beating the other consoles for release.
