New Xbox 360 Arrives
July 24, 2006
Finally, the new (refurbished) Xbox 360 has arrived. It actually didnt take all that long to arrive, but Sean and I were really hoping to have it last week for our time alone at home while the girls were at the Showstoppers National Dance Finals.
If you remember, mine died a couple weeks back and Microsoft was nice enough to send me another unit despite mine being long out of warranty. They didnt have to do that and it actually impressed me, which isnt easy.
So, we unpacked the new Xbox 360, hooked up my old hard drive, attached all the cables and turned it on. We had to have the Xbox 360 re-connect with all the wireless controllers which wasnt surprising. Other than that, no issues as she came right to life. All of the profiles and downloads I had done prior were still solidly intact on the hard drive.
Let the games begin!!!
Ping Pong
July 19, 2006
Suzanne and Savannah left for the Showstoppers dance finals today, so it was just Sean and I. We had been looking forward to a bit of father / son time especially some extended gaming sessions on the Xbox 360. Unfortunately, the replacement unit hasnt arrived yet, so we are out of luck.
We must have played 20 games of ping pong today instead. So at least we got a bit of excersise. Sean is still waiting for the day he can beat me in ping pong. I dont think its that far off as he improves every time. We both work up pretty good sweats since we keep the ping pong table in the garage and it was near 100 degrees again today in AZ.
Sean has also spent some time playing the original xbox while I have enjoyed some time with my 158th clan playing Americas Army.
Tonight, we plan to watch several movies and stay up late. Fun times…
