First, my DEAD Xbox 360. Yes, I’ve been in missing in action from online play for he past 2 weeks.  I was playing COD:WaW one day and after getting some pixilation from the screen, I rebooted and never did see anything from my box again. Yes, it is just now a box. Xiane calls it “a piece of junk" that we can try to recycle. Brought it to Technical Care Center (TCC) but they weren’t able to do anything. I can still here it boot up but I think the GPU (Graphics Processing Unit) itself is busted and apparently, there’s no way to fix that. So there goes my beloved Xbox 360. It might have been the dust that accumulated that did it in. Still, my old original Xbox is still working and we’re using that now. I was trying to find a Jasper Arcade in Virgin but their Arcades are quite old and did not fit the Jasper description from the net. So, I’ll probably hold off buying one for now till Virgin brings a PAL  Jasper. Hu hu hu.
