I LOVE the fact you can now disable Auto-Run now. That pissed me off before. >_>
Installing is great as well. Really cuts down on those pesky load times.
Seriously fast now. As an example, it used to take about 2 minutes to load into a garden on Viva Pinata. Now it takes about 20 seconds to go from start, to a Garden.

I played L4D for a while.
I waited for a map to load.
It froze.
I restarted.
RRoD. One month after warranty. I knew it was going to do it. I just knew it. I sat there saying "if I update, this thing is fucked." But I was goaded into doing it by some people. Yay for peer pressure >_>
However, apparently my 360 is in fact a zombie now, because it died and reanimated itself. I didn't touch it for a whole day, and just said fuck it and flipped it on for shits and giggles. It lives again.

Launch 360? I've been hearing a LOT of problems with that happening and the Launch 360s and the new NXE update... Because the warranty for ALL RRODs was increased from 1 year to 3 years.
And. Yeah. I've heard of that as well. Sometimes the RROD doesn't completely kill it, and it will continue to live for a little while, before completely dying.

When I bought the first one I had been hearing all the problems that they were having and how MS was being a bitch, so I got a two-year powerbomb insurance warranty from Best Buy. I wanted to do that since when they fucked up, I just throw it back in the box, grab the receipt, go to BB, have some geek squad guy hook it up and go 'yeah it's fucked,' grab a new one, switch out the hard drives since I wanted to keep mine, and off I go. That was in October of '06. So of course in November of '08, this thing decides to die, and then wise fwom it's gwave. If it dies again, I could just go get an arcade one (well...when I can afford one anyway), but I want to get a larger hard drive anyway since you can download games to make them faster now, probably just get an elite.
And the thing that REALLY pisses me off is that I can go back home, dig in my closet, and turn on my Nintendo which is older than just about everyone here with no problems. WTF MS, WTF.

I believe the number is 1-800-4MY-XBOX
They'll send you a box and everything. MAKE SURE YOU *DO NOT* PUT YOUR FACEPLATE OR HARDDRIVE IN THE BOX. You won't get those back.
