Put it in the bin and buy a SNES with Jurassic Park, Street Racer and Link to the past.

its typical innit i havnt been on since i updated the dash so im gonna say its bricked my console, and so they have to give me money back or offer exchnage for elite, of course ill say i will pay the extra 20 quid but then claim it back using ucas card, its the PERFECT crime :P

When I become de-sensitised to the most cruel of things on this planet, your sentences still make me laugh.

Take back to shop and demand a replacement. Simple.

Unlucky, poke's 360 has just got 3 red lights too, he is sending it to M$ for repair. Im trying to get him to buy a core while its in the shop, just so he can play halo3.

ok, heres what happened, went to pc world, went to customer services, told the fit lass that my 360 was ****ed, she said lemme test it. so she goes n plugs it into the demo 360 stand, 3 red lights, so she goes ok, we can swap you it. i as k can i upgrade to the elite, she says sure, pc world currently are selling the elite + any game for 300, so she goes we can give you the game, but we can give you the elite. so she enters it into teh till, msg appears on screen saying game required, so i go pick up forza 2, which is selling at 40 atm in pc world

so i basically just got 280 back (as that is how much i paid when i bought my 360 with gears n vegas), and got 320 back in eliteness :P
