When I first got TES III for the Xbox,
I managed put my Xbox through 50+ hours of non-stop Morrowinding.
Unfortunately, I fried the system and had to mail it in to get it fixed.
gonk
TES IV is bad news for my poor 360.
Hopefully, it'll survive the beating.
(Maybe I should construct some sort of liquid cooling system)
Oh well..
whee heart
Discuss
-Too much gaming
-Not enough of TES

You know you game too much when you're eyes begin to bleed and you talk like "The scouts have informed me of the orc tribe's return! Prepare the for for battle!" You can never have enough TES ^^

I played over 60+hours on Morrowind and my Xbox hasn't died. Only Morrowind freezes every now and then.

I've had my share of insane Morrowind sittings. The PC version does plenty of crashes, and it got me in the heat of battles. xp

Kenac I've had my share of insane Morrowind sittings. The PC version does plenty of crashes, and it got me in the heat of battles. xp Now that's pretty darn crazy, I never once had Morrowind crash on my computer, until quite recently. But my computer is really pretty ******** up right now. When my brother first found out about TES 3, and TES for the first time, he bought it, and wouldn't let me play until he'd beaten it. I had to sneak it while he wasn't looking, or just watch until he got bored and let me play. So I'll be buying my own version of Oblivion to prevent this from happening again.

Not every Xbox crashes when you play 50+ hours.
I was playing in a poorly circulated room with a first release Xbox.
A first release of any system has a about a 15% malfunction rate.
Poor circulation doesn't let dust and heat move away from the Xbox.

Poor circulation doesn't let dust and heat move away from the Xbox. Not very well thought out. What were you thinking Microsoft? If you're going to sink low enough to make a console, at least make it a good one.

Oh, but Xbox and Xbox 360 are great consoles!
Like I said, the 15% malfunction rate is in all first release systems, not just Xbox.
Plus, poor circulation was my fault, not Microsoft's.

The crashed usually occured during saves, and my computer is a name-brand one, so it came with a bunch of crap...

Wow, I'm saddened by that 15% malfunction rate.... That's really sad. Well, I honestly think that if you've been a-using consoles for awhile, (which you may not have been), then you should have known better than to have had poor circulation. Shame shame shame.

Thank the Lord Himself that someone else agrees that Dell sucks for gaming. Granted, they make fairly good business computers - they're cheap, and they can store business files fairly well. Unfortunately, they've been living off of nothing but a good name for the past fifteen years, and use nothing but the crappiest, shoddiest products out there. Kind of like Apple... Except Apple doesn't, and damn well better not ever get, a popular name. They came out with the Ipod. Wow. An MP3 player. Something that there are hundreds of.
