According to my local paper, the average gamer is over 30. I work with quite a few gamers in their 40's, and even a few in their 50's. I don't really consider myself to be a gamer anymore, because I don't play anywhere near as much as I use to. However, I love video games, and god willing, I'll be playing until I die.Originally posted by: spacejamz

Not sure if you've noticed, but the gamers are growing up, and it isn't just for kids anymore. If you are a gamer yourself, you'll probably still be a gamer in your 40's.Originally posted by: meltdown75
dude you're 48. sell your XBox 360 and move out of mom's basement.Not all customers are satisfied. "The level of incompetence I have had to deal with is unbelievable," says Brian Smith, 48, of Owasso, Okla., who is trying to get a new power supply. "I can't describe how disappointed I've been."
i'm 35 and my wife 'let' me camp out for 6 hours for my 360...now she's ticked that all i do in my spare time is play ridge racer 6 or pgm...

That's how you do that. My 360 defaults to the last profile created which drives me nuts as mine was first. Thanks for the info.Originally posted by: Wingznut
If you go into your profile settings (or preferences, or something like that...) You can enable an automatic sign in on one of your profiles. Pick the one that has XBL and you are set.Originally posted by: UpgradeFailure
It bugs me because it takes longer to log in and then the little profile screen comes down and I have to pick my name. Before live, it would just say "logged in' and go right away
Mine is Muadib1. I'm still waiting for my copy of Madden 06, so I don't think I'll be on much until I get it. Did DOA4 come out yet?Originally posted by: Wingznut

Did you make note of the serial number? I'm wondering if they are fixing, or replacing them?Originally posted by: Rage187
My Xbox360 got shipped off to the repair center today, and should be there tomorrow by 10:30am.
I'll keep this thread updated with how long it takes them to fix it and ship it back.

They said fix, but yes I have the serial number.
Personally I would prefer a BRAND NEW one then a fixed one.

I wouldn't doubt they might would just send you a new one if they have some reserved for defects. They're aiming for quick replacement and thus I would assume that a new one would be the fastest way to do that.
Could be that they'll send you another one that was fixed and is working correctly. They could just swap hard drives and send it to ya.
Then again, I don't really know, but here's to hoping, right?

I imagine whether or not he gets a new one would be dependent on the severity of the problem. If it's just a problem with the DVD drive, HDD, or PS it would be a simple part replacement. If it is something more serious then he'd probably get a new console.

I can guarantee you they already have a process in place for defects and problems. Complete with scripts for the CSRs. I mean we're talking microsoft here. Sony, et all would do the same thing.
There is already a plan and process in place to handle these things. The paths are already set.
Damn I've been in corporate world WAY too long.
What I'm trying to say is that it is guaranteed that the product launch has all the bases covered and the launch plan/project plan has been picked apart/criticized to shreds by countless individuals. There will be no surprises as far as MS is concerned. These actions and "what ifs?" have been over analyzed to death internally.

Yeah, that I'm sure of. We were just kinda discussing what their path might be, just send a new one, a different repaired one thats ready, or repair that one.
