My Xbox 360: MIA ...

I've taken a few days to cool down.

So I called the 1-800-4MyXbox last Wednesday to get the status on my dead Xbox 360. Because they told me to call them Wednesday, when I called previously. They told me to call and get my shipping confirmation. On Wednesday.

So I called them (on Wednesday) and got Carla (who was reticent to repeat her name when I asked her to), and she told me about an additional change in the process for the new, three-year extended warranty.

Mainly, that my Xbox was not shipping on Wednesday, but that it would be shipped -- in an additional 2-4 weeks.

So, according to Carla, they've got such a backlog of 360s from the new extended warranty, that I'm out my Xbox for possibly a month. So I missed the Bungie Day downloads. I'm missing all of the "Bringing it Home" content. I can't play The Darkness or Overlord. I can't do some XNA stuff I wanted to do. That sucks.

I think I'll spin the time playing Xbox and SNES stuff. And maybe do some XNA Stuff for Windows. And probably Dungeon Runners on the PC. Kinda digging that MMO ....

Previously:
  1. My Xbox 360 is dead ...
  2. "Off we go ..."
  3. "We have received your Xbox at our service center."
  4. Xbox 360 warranty extended to 3 years ...
