Rick Rolled…I Mean… Red Ringed

What a day what a day what a day.

I’ve been busy all day finishing up the levels for the Assassin Bow Woman game, which should be ready soon, although a few snags have been hit, but this morning I decided to get the engine done for the other game I’d like out this month, a game that lends heavily from the “Match 3″ genre but then smashes it into the “Mouse Avoider” genre like there’s no tomorrow, it’s looking kind of nice, and more updates on that soon.

In slightly more infuriating news, my XBox decided to join the ranks of the other 33% failure rates of Microsoft’s PC/Console lovechild. Now I face the dilemma of Microsoft Customer Service or having a pop at repairing it myself. Time allowing, I’d prefer the latter.

Oh Mr XBox, how I loved you.

And here is a pic of me, my Girlfriend Lucy, and daughter Ella showing off my Stylish Shift 2 Shirt I recieved for my 21st from my dear Mother. This is for those of you who would like to see behind the scenes for one of the Armor Staff, and chide him over how badly he needs a haircut.

Would you buy one? The Shirt, not the baby.

I was also considering doing a proper Shift shirt design myself in high resolution, what would you guys think about something like that being available to purchase? Would you be interested? If not, suggest what *could* make you consider such a purchase.

    Don’t waste your precious time with MS. Their foreign employees won’t tell you anything you don’t know. They refused to let me ship back my xbox. Just go to your local Gamestop/EBgames/wherever and trade it in for the $80 (which is pretty good seeing as it eat disks, jammed the tray, didn’t play games, froze, and got the RROD over 8 times) and get a used one.

    And your mom knows how to make a shirt?! My mom could never do that!

    Well, when the MS 30 first came out, i remember many having technical issues with it. With in the first months of buying them, they would break down. To have yours do it now is just plain weird. They usually bust in the first few months. Was it recently purchased?

    And i am glad to hear of the 2 new upcoming games for AG. Also, da’ fam looks good, but i may have to agree…haircut may be an essential.

    =D :D thanks for the update!!

    PS: Why does your 360 look slightly reddish?

    Red ring of death. I imagine you didn’t think about it when you bought your X360.

    Ahh…

    Its about a year old, in fact, I bought it when I found out IndestructoTank had won a $500 best of month bonus from the Armor contest, so yeah, a year old. The reddish colour is just the picture, its just standard X360 beige. I’ve bought some parts on Ebay and I’ll be taking it apart to look inside once they arrive, I’ll keep you updated.

    We just need to figure out if Krin Red-Ringed so that we can complete the 100% failure rate.
