Xbox 360 Red Ring of Death… Target Style

I was shopping at Target for Christmas and found not only a few Wireless Guitar Hero III’s, but the store demo 360 had the infamous Red Ring of Death!   I myself have had this happen (along with 33% of 360 owners) and thought it was quite humorous.

Not the Ring of Death itself, but something that one of the witty Target employees had written on a small piece of paper.  Quite possibly my favorite….  OH NOES!

Enjoy, and sorry about the picture quality, my cell phone is only 1.33 MP.

More Forza 2 Goodies. Can I borrow $10,000?

I had seen this floating around at the trade shows and whatnot for the Forza 2 release, but they posted something on how to do multi monitors with the racing wheel and everything. It’s not as simple as hooking up a few monitors to your Xbox 360, you will need 1 360 per monitor, and a copy of the game for each Xbox. Ouch…

Notice the small LCD screen that acts as your rear view mirror. It would be a completely different game if you could manage to get this set up. Fathers day is coming up. Maybe…

Let’s rough estimate what this would cost.

$2000 for lets say a Sony 40″ Bravia LCD x 3

$400 for a Premium Xbox

$600 for 2 core systems (I think that is all that would be necessary)

$180 for three copies of Forza 2

$130 for the wheel

$2495 for the chair, speakers etc.

Grand total: $9805 less shipping, handling, taxes etc. So you might need just over 10 Bills to pay for everything.

I made this with the in game paint shop. Not bad, but the Buckeye leaf could be better.

Top 10 (+1) Most Anticipated Games of 2007

“Experience has taught me that oftentimes, gamers are better off taking projected release dates with a grain of salt, but I can’t help but feel like 2007 is going to be one of the best years in gaming history…I had trouble limiting it to only 10 of them, so I didn’t. Here are my most anticipated games of the coming year:”

Although I don’t particularly care for most of the games on this list, I am stuck playing Rainbow Six:Vegas, and I just bought Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter:2 this weekend. I must admin that I really like GRAW2 single player, and it has absolutely beautiful graphics, but I am not sure that it is the most difficult to play through (RB6 Vegas is much harder on Realistic mode).

I would have also liked to see Forza Motorsport 2 on this list. I would say my top 3 this year were G.R.A.W.2, Halo 3, and Forza2.
