Karma Killed my Xbox (?)

My Xbox 360 just died on me yesterday.



Normally, I would just accept the fact that it died a natural death but it happened when I was playing Fable II. That poorly-coded, bug-infested, laggy piece of crap. I am beginning to think it is not a mere coincidence that so many X360s died when the game was released. Whether that is true or not, I will never know but I just had to blame it on something rather than let it remain a mystery. hehe.

At the same time, I couldn't help but feel that my Xbox's demise was the result of karma. A few hours before it happened, I yelled at my mother to get out of my room as she was pestering me and disturbing my peaceful nightly gaming routine. Maybe it's divine punishment being metted out for sons who are rude to their mothers.

As the weekends approach, I feel depressed thinking how am I going to survive an entire week until next Friday when my replacement is ready. I am actually addicted to my Xbox in the same way I was addicted to WoW. I wonder if I may be tempted to get another X360 to play (maybe a 60gb one this time).
