RIP Beatz's XBox

Yes, this is gonna be the last video-game related post for a while I guess, as my XBox has passed on...
I was one of many recipients of the dreaded E 74 error message accompanied by one red ring in the lower right hand corner around the power button. While Microsoft does fix this for free (shipping and all) it's still gonna take about 2-3 weeks, which is about all the time I have until I leave the country and head for Korea (at which time I'll probably start a new blog dedicated to that).
So, it's been fun, but for the time being this blog is probably gonna be out of commission...*Single tear*

I Got Killed by this Dude...It Looked Cool Though

This fella stuck up on me, and then proceeded to kill me, then something cool happened. Check it out.

Here's me entering the room.

There's my stalker, droppin' down from above in the background.

The chase...short as it was...

And he takes me down. Now, notice the difference in the placement of my body from this shot to the next, it kinda...well, it totally shifts positions into that lift...but whatever, that's what made the magic happen...

Going up!

As I...er, rather my dead body arrives at the top of the lift, notice the grenade. That little trail of smoke on the bottom of the screen leads up to it.

Body is propelled by the blast!

Through the air...

And thud. Check out the Chief's neck crackin' on the floor.

Ouch. Sucks to be me.

Man, I should stop losing so I can post something other than me getting killed.
