laurgasms is dead. Long live Mrs. hawkeye. Two fine people met via Shacknews, flirted, fell in love, got engaged and finally married on Saturday. Congratulations, you crazy kids. Now go churn out the dozens of babies I know your loins are aching for.

Shacknews: it really does get you chicks.

    My 360 pro that I bought a little over 2 years ago died with the RROD a few weeks ago. I had purchased an extended warranty from Sam's club, and called them about the issue. Because of some hiccups, they agreed to replace the 360 entirely. They then ordered a new 360 for me from ToysRUs (wtf?). I got that 360 last Friday, and promptly recovered my gamertag, transferred my xbla licenses to it, and popped in mw2.

    After about 2 hours of MW2, the brand new console red ringed. Literally within hours of turning it on for the first time.

    Fortunately, ToysRUs was nice enough to let me exchange the 360 at their store for a new one. Now I'm trying to transfer the xbla licenses to the new (3rd) 360, but apparently you can only use the transfer tool once every YEAR.

    So I called in to see if they could do it over the phone, I had to go through 10 minutes of "troubleshooting" to be escalated to another level where I could have my issues resolved. Once I was escalated, I had to re-explain the entire situation to that guy and then he told me that he could not resolve the issue, but would escalate it to "the high department" and they would call me back within 48hrs to help me with my issue.

    just kidding, but seriously, this is a huge pain in the ass, it's really getting old having to jump through a bunch of hoops to play games because of Microsoft's poor manufacturing process. :( I am grateful though that ToysRUs let me return my Sams Club warranty xbox for a new one. We'll see if this new one lives through the night, or if a few hours of MW2 will kill it too.
