Man buys Xbox 360 and destroys it

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2005

Here is a funny story from over at Xbox Scene. Some dude waited in line at Best Buy for 55 hours, bought an Xbox 360, and then smashed it with a sledgehammer in front of everyone. Kind of amusing, but considering that Xbox 360’s are going for about $1,000 a piece on ebay right now, […]

From Ritual’s Online Community site:

Everything went well, so it’s getting pretty close. The game is still one of the best multiplayer experiences out there and I can’t wait for […]

More dumb-ass lawsuits

Sunday, November 20th, 2005

Move over Jack Thompson, there is a Chinese lawyer who wants to take your place — Zhang Chunliang. He is suing Blizzard in China because a 13 year old boy who played World of Warcraft decided to kill himself. The comparison to Jack Thompson is no joke either. Zhang too is a self promoter, he’s […]
