UPS called this evening to inform me that they are delivering my 4th 360 "3rd replacement console" sometime tuesday afternoon. I'll let you guys know if it works this time, but to be honest I'm not counting on it. I plan on putting Skate into the console immediately because it freezes so often that the title screen won't even load half the time. If I can play Skate for 20 minutes without lock up I'll consider my console to be 100% repaired.

I'm only posting about this to help open the eyes of people who may be interested in purchasing a 360. What Microsoft is doing is flat out wrong, and something needs to be done about it. The problems that I've endured with Microsoft are not an isolated case, in fact it's a widespread problem. People should boycott this console until the hardware failures are thoroughly corrected. I don't hate the 360 in any way, actually it's my console of choice. If the 360 console worked properly I'd advise any video game fan to buy one as soon as possible...
