What do you expect? It is his 10nth 360, and he saw that it doesn't have the
Jasper MOBO in this one.

Jonah really shouldn't leave the camera running when he's unwrapping
his presents.

Sorry, had to be a dick and say it; the opportunity was too tempting
to pass up.

Anyway, back to the original question - what did you get?

I'm on my 7th new 360!
1 doesn't count because I purchased it for a stand alone racing
cockpit so technically I am on my 6th.
My son just had his original 360 belly up on him like no other 360 I
have ever had or heard do before. Since it's out of warranty I had no
choice but to purchase him another one. Anyone that brags about MS and
their sales of the 360 is a fucking stooge (pun intended) since I
don't personally no "ONE" person or family that hasn't purchased more
than one brand new 360. Like I said I have purchased 7 but a friend of
mine from Philly has me beat since he has purchased 8!

As far as this lameass video going around of this kid? Those videos
are flat out embarrassing and scream I SUCK as a parent.
That is HWTS if I have ever seen it. Any one that has been lurking
around this group for an extended period of time knows I go overboard
for Christmas. Not just with my family but charity as well. Never in
all my years have I ever seen or known someone to act like that while
getting a present. Even those that are use to get or having nothing.

Yeah, sure. You own 10 360's and have bought 7 more.

Whether you like to believe it or not, many here have went thru multiple
360's. That is more the norm than the exception and this most certainly has
padded the sales figures of 360's in Microsofts favor. The actual number of
working 360's and PS3's in the world are more likely very close, but the sheer
number of 360's sold, working or otherwise falsely influences publishers to
develop many titles on the 360 first then port them to the PS3.

More likely than if you were to claim you've only bought 1 and never
experienced RROD...

Wrong. He says he purches 5 360's. Not replacements. 5 seperate 360's.
(laugh)

How many people do you know who buy 5 consoles? 5 of the SAME consoles?
(laugh)

He's a lying fuck.

Um, didn't he already post a picture a couple years ago that pretty
much proved he wasn't lying?

Meanwhile, does the fact that you said Uncharted 2 is basically a copy
of Gears of War, when it clearly isn't to anyone who actually played
Uncharted 2, mean that you're a lying fuck? Hmmmmmmm..........

Up until this year I haven't received a Christmas present in over a
decade.
My son is old enough to have his own money and he bought me an Akuma
figurine (SFIV Edition) for my gaming room.
It's actually the coolest present I think I have received since I was
a kid.

And the fact that he claims to have played Mass Effect 2 already and the
fact that he claims to be a journalist. :-)
