Great news!
Well, all good things eventually come to an end. A few days ago i notice red lines going through my games and on some videos with my 360. When i researched the problem the other day i found out that it was probably my video card that was the problem. Just yesterday the problem got so bad that i'm not even able to play games anymore.

This couldn't have come at the worst time because i just got GTA IV and only got as far as the first mission before it completely screwed up. Now, it still works fine on some arcade games but that's about it. Anything that comes close to being "3D" will have very strong pixel-like red lines over it.

So.. I called up xbox support and it turns out that my warranty is up, hurray! It will cost me 100$ to send my xbox in for repairs. Maybe the worst part of this whole thing is that i don't have the money to do that right now. I will in about a month.. Looks like it will be about 2 months or so till i get to finally play GTA IV. 1 month to get the money and another to send it in and wait for M$ to get it back to me.

Dude, that sucks. I remember my 360 got the RRoD like a few days after Christmas when I got a lot of great games... It sucked but oh well. I feel bad for ya. No 360 for 2 months? I wouldn't be able to live.
