Farewell, Big Brother.
So, lately, I've been under much stress. I hide it well, but couldn't hold it in anymore.
I just made money. I made enough money to help me with a major thing in my life. I just had to sell something to do it. Alas; for I have sold my XBox360 (Xephon, so named) because I need money to put towards a car. Because of this global economy, and especially OUR economy, I haven't been able to make a dent into a savings to acquire a vehicle by the end of this semester.
I must admit that I am slightly saddened by this situation, but I'll be able to move on. I intend on purchasing another XBox360 when I can in the future. I'm not worried about that.
I wanted to post this here so that when people don't see me on LIVE for a while, they know why. I think this was a sound decision and I will benefit from it in the near future. As for gaming, I still have (and refuse to sell it) my PlayStation 3.
Rest in peace, Xephon. Rest in peace.

I may buy a PS3 in the next few weeks myself.... since the future of my 360 is uncertain at this point. (still unsure if MS will fix it for free, or will ask for the 150$)
I just wish PS3 would get a price drop already, I'm craving Disgaea 3 and the next "warriors" games. But 400$ for just the system with no games is a bit much to my taste. (not that I can't afford it, I can... I just don't want to pay that much)

4:30 in the morning was the worst time for me to read this.
I'm only upset because you're literally....my only friend on XBL. Not that we ever play online anyway. I guess you're just gonna have to get your ass into that new car and come play with me in person.
Did you keep any of the games?

I was about to make a joke involving a certain song by Queen, but reading this kinda makes it pointless.
That being said, it is always sad to let go of treasured things, but some priorities have to be made.
At least you still have your PS3, and if I'm not mistaken, you also have DS, so those two ought to keep you entaertained.

I knew both of you would say that. Now I'm just waiting for what Mike is going to say.

Xephon didn't die.
You just sold it.Like it never meant anything to you.
Like it never comforted you in time of need... like it never put a smile on your face or gave you a stiffy.
Even though it could take you to places a car couldn't.
And then you sold it.But it's not dead.
