i started off the day optimistic with figuring out the xbox slowdown. when i concluded something was wrong i drove 70 miles round trip to gamestop for a new xbox and new copy of ncaa. i tried it back at home and slowdown still there. that's it going back another 70 miles to get ps2 system and copy. get back home again and the game looks like garbage on my hdtv. well, i guess it is the cables for i was using standard av when i should have component right. back to gamestop yet again, not joking here. this time i manage to get some monster component cables for a discount, lucky me right? wrong, get back home and the damn things wont work for some reason. i call gamestop and they tell me they were discounted because they were used which in translation means some joe blow brought them back because they didnt work. gamestop had the prescence of mind to put them back on the shelf. lets summarize
start of day: xbox, game with slowdown, lots of fuel in car
end of day: ps2, game looks like crap, -150 bones, empty fuel tank.
not complaining but sh!t!!!!!!!!!
how was your day?
