Re: **Official MLB 2K8 "who's got it? Where's it at" Thread.**
Hi my friend,Wow, my 360 is done. I think I'm going to borrow one from my friend. Hopefully he doesn't screw me over.
There weren't any places on Long Island that were selling this early? I called like 6-7 places, from Gamestop to Bestbuy to Sears, and all of them said tomorrow. Were any full rosters released tonight also?
I can relate to what you are saying. My friend had his 360 die on him, 3 RRoL. His warranty was up but I was able to fix it for him. Mine did the same thing last weekend and I was able to fix it as well. What you should do to test out if it's what I possibly think that is wrong, wrap your 360 in 3 towels, blocking all the ventilation while leaving all the wires plugged in and let it run for 20 or 25 minutes.
The 360 will overheat and you will see the 2 lights on the left flashing. At that point, remove the towels and let the 360 cool down. I would say 45 minutes or so. Then try it on. If it works, that means that the solder from the GPU or CPU came undone slightly. Overheating the 360 reforms that bond but only on a temporary basis. This is only a temporary solution. A more permanent fix has to be executed.
From there, you have a couple of options avalable to you. If your 360 is still under warranty, youn can send it to Microsoft or you can find a reputable repair shop around your area.
I could fix it for you if the towel trick works but it depends on where you live and I would to open your 360 up, voiding the warranty if it is still under warranty.

I tried the Gamestop and Game Crazy near my house, but they both said tomorrow. Gamestop told me to call before I come in.
I get out of school at 2:45, and by the time I get over to Gamestop or Game Crazy, the game should be in, and if it is, I'll be buying it.Comment

that's a temporary at fix at best, and can actually further damage itComment

Ah I'm so pumped I just got my 360 working. I'm praying it will hold out tomorrow. I'm only gonna have a few hours to play it, but I just hope it doesn't keep freezing on me. Thanks to the guy who posted the Towel Trick Instructions. I know it's a temp fix, but that's all I need right now.
I'm making my mom pick it up for me tomorrow will I'm in school and work lol. I knew she was good for something.Comment

Re: **Official MLB 2K8 "who's got it? Where's it at" Thread.**
Granite City is awesome, that is where I want to move to when i'm older, pretty close to STL. I'm in Jacksonville and it's like 2 hours and a half or 2 hours give or take. If I lived any closer I would have season tickets, it would be awesome. I want to go into broadcasting, Journalism, or Sports Management.Comment
