Xbox 360 Degrees!
Tuesday, December 6th, 2005
Remember all those Xbox 360s Microsoft gave away to celebrities just because, you know, they’re cool? Weren’t you secretly thinking that after the 360 photo shoot that they just threw it into the closet (or the dumpster?) never to use it again? Well a fake blog which attempts to impersonate Madonna claims that she not only got a free 360, but she tried to play it, without success, and then promptly threw it out! From her “personal” blog:
I received my FREE Xbox 360 yesterday! Too bad though. The thing over-heated and doesn’t work. I was going to play a game with my friends in Japan, but it crashed on us. The power supply on this device is HUGE! At least I know why they called it the Xbox 360 and not the Xbox 2. The damn thing gets up to about 360 DEGREES!!!! It’s frightening!Oh well. My Xbox 360 is in a Japanese dumpster. I just don’t have time to fool with getting it replaced. I’m not much into TV or video games anyways. My children aren’t allowed to play them either. I guess they were dumb to give me one knowing that I don’t really have any use for them. I know they gave them to other celebrities as well. Paris Hilton got one. Barf. That’s even more reason to trash the glitchy console!
By the way, you realize that this blog is totally fake, right? Still amusing though.
Can’t find an Xbox 360 for the holidays this year? Seventy dollar “special edition” games getting you down? Well let’s go back in time to a simpler time in video game history … back to 1982 when the Atari 2600 ruled supreme!
