This post was not intended to bash the console.

I am fed up with the serious of unfortunate events I have had, so dont moan and say I only went to 1 store. My point is that nothing is simple and was not to directly bash the 360. As I said in the quote above..
I cannot do ANYTHING these days without getting screwed over. On several occasions I like to treat myself with upgrades and whatnot.
Lets have a breakdown of my year so far.
1. Tuniq Tower - PC would randomly not boot, due to a dry spot in mobo. So I sold that and now use a Freezer 7.
2. Bought an 8800GT and the Fan was stuck on 100% ALL the time so I had to get an aftermarket cooler.
3. I bought a 22" Samsung TFT and it died within 10 minutes of use.
4. I bought an Xbox 360, the HDMI version, planning to use HDMI with a connector into my Samsung TFT and use the red/white banana plugs to go into my amp for sound.
There was no HDMI cable supplied, even though it had an HDMI port.
5. I drive upto Argos to get a £5 HDMI Cable
£4.99 Sold Out
£9.99 Sold Out
£12.99 Sold Out
£14.99 Sold out
£19.99 In Stock
So I bought the super duper HDMI cable, got back, and its so bloody thick I cant get the HDMI cable and the Xbox/AV lead in the back at the same time.
Needless to say I am thoroughally p****d off. What have I done to deserve this? I earn my paychecks like everybody else, 9-5 five days a week.
So what do I do now? Oh yes try to play my new Xbox with NO SOUND!
/RANT.
One thoroughally fed up Chris.
I didn't want the elite actually. Its pathetic considering most of you are grown ups and you have the cheek to speak to me like that.
For your information I am not a spoilt brat, I have been working solidly since I was 16 to pay for my driving lessons, insurance and all the rest of it. I have just got my bonus for the year and as such bought the 360. If I work hard and purchase items with my own money, I don't see how I am spoilt.
I also didnt spend over £500.
Grow up, seriously.
So what do I do now? Oh yes try to play my new Xbox with NO SOUND!
I tried feeding my 360 jam sandwiches once as it sounded a bit hungry and it BROKE!!1
Oh and if you call that stress because a couple of little things don't go right then you have a lot to learn about real stress. Gods sake, grow up and grow a spine, or just jump off a cliff and do us all a favour.
As a Support Engineer I deal with stressful situations on a daily basis. This is my job and I am good at it. However, you are just taking this way too far now.. You have no right to insult me.
Correct me if I am wrong but the purpose of a Community/Forum is to allow all users to explain their point of view and toexpress their opinions. Having been here a long time, I decided to post here. I already explained that the Title for this topic is irrelivent and incorrect, which would have been better in GD.
No, scroll up and you will see that I have already sorted this. Hours and hours ago infact
I have also stated in three of four posts now:
The purpose of this thread was merely to express my opinion about all the bad luck I have had recently, not specifically the Xbox. I was just fed up at the time (I wouldnt be human if I wasnt), and posted this at the spur of the moment.
Is that clear enough?
lol @ 360 fanboys, obviously touched a nerve or four with the title, give him a break.
