Mine died on me while playing Rock Band with the gf last night. Weirdest thing ever; there was this green overlay, polka dots, over the background, but not everything. At first I thought I had unlocked some super hidden graphics filter, but eventually realized that it wasn't part of the game, did a restart, and got the one lone red light. Fuck.
Just got done with MS on the phone. I take back every negative thing I've said about anyone else (AT&T used to be the king of inept customer support in my mind). I've heard stories but had no idea that the folks there were so retarded.
And 2 to 3 weeks before I get my system back. Ridiculous. The funny thing is, when people started quoting that 50% failure rate from earlier this week, I had my doubts, since Game Informer is not exactly Consumer Reports, no offense. But I guess with literally half the systems dying, I shouldn't be surprised by the turn around.
