No don't Aaron. Let them keep using the ad.

That is too funny thanks for showing us that, Joe Orc. This is classic.

Aaron · 07-01-2007, 02:29 AM

I won't send this to M$, but I would love to see what they have to say.

I found the kid playing online funnier then the 3 rings of death. Thats the essance of Xbox live, 10 year old boys cussing like there is no tommorow. XBOX LIVE ROCKS. LOL

GasCat · 07-01-2007, 02:48 AM

I can easily picture the kid's jaw droppng and him bursting into tears within the next second.
"What the heck?

NOOOO!!!

" *bawling*

joeorc · 07-01-2007, 02:54 AM

don't you know micrsoft added a new item that come's with your xbox360 free of charge now.

and they went' for the most expensive brand kleenex..nothing too good for the xbox360 fans....

What company is this, ie whose ad is it?

Anyone wanna bet on how soon they get a "letter" from MS?

P.S. This ad makes the kid look like an apparent idiot. Red ring implies he's grinning at a blank/frozen screen, iirc.

Actually I think it's an old one as uses last years date. Hilarious all the same.

MrBogey · 07-02-2007, 01:18 PM

Isn't the red ring of death only a partial ring? I thought the upper right(or in this case since it's standing- the lower right) would be off and the other three quarters lit.

movies3 · 07-02-2007, 06:16 PM

hahaha thats sooo funny!!

Then the system would be mirrored. The system is shown accurately. So ergo it's either trickery from the flash or digital manipulation.

Irl give you the chance to post again. This time think about what your saying lol.

This ad is jokes. More and more things are found amuseing. First, is the red ring of doom advertised, second, its a kid smiling at nothing. Really, there isnt even a screen in the pic lol. Its advertising that it can play DVD's LMAO! Wow, really, it does that. Bonus!!! How old is that kid? What age is perfect dark zero?

Well, if there is no a/v cable hooked up, the system will flash a full red ring, that's probably what is going on here. The Ring of Death is much funnier though, and is bound to happen sooner or later.
