]]> Comment on Halo 3 Killed My Xbox 360 by Russ http://www.infinitelylessthaninfinite.com/blog/23/halo-3-killed-my-xbox-360#comment-6 Russ Tue, 09 Oct 2007 17:45:42 +0000 http://www.infinitelylessthaninfinite.com/blog/23/halo-3-killed-my-xbox-360#comment-6 My Xbox360 did the same thing with Halo 3. Also, when I brought it in to UPS for shipping, the guy behind the desk knew what the box was before I even told him. He said they have been receiving a ton of Xbox360's lately, and his buddy's 360 died when he tried to play Halo 3 as well. Why would Microsoft launch a title bigger than any other launch in the history of entertainment, just to kill its own Xbox? Don't they test this crap? Also, they tried telling me that my one year warranty was expired, which long story short, it wasn't. I didn't even have the strength to argue anymore as the "red-ring-of-death" is covered for three additional years anyway. Lastly, you should have been offered a free year membership to Xbox Live and an extension of your one year warranty because of your problems. You might want to look into it.

I hear you talking! It sux talking to customers, but at least I don't have to do it that much. Probably, on average, 1 or 2 calls a day max. So not bad. But I do wish I could use photoshop at work. That would be cool. And getting to listen to tunes all day uninterrupted would especially be cool. Nice work buddy. Yea, Yea!!! I hear you talking!

What I'm really proud about in MarsEdit is how many features are hiding under the surface, but they don't glare if you're not interested in them. I'd really like to add FTP/SCP uploading as an option for the image uploads. I think that would be a great enhancement. In general I agree that the WordPress/MetaWeblog media upload interface is not ideal. Thanks for writing about MarsEdit - even if you're still on the fence about keeping it :) Daniel I’m really glad you see the value of MarsEdit’s simplified interface.

Looking good! Although, I am not sure if you meant for the tags to actually show in the above post or not? Looking sweet. Keep up the "hacking' on wordpress. I will have lots of questions once I get going again. :) Hey buddy! Looking good! Although, I am not sure if you meant for the tags to actually show in the above post or not? Looking sweet.
