First I need to tell you all that I am really AGITATED!!
I got the 360 premium on Mon morning for xmas, and someone else got me Madden 2k7... I set it up to my 32" HDTV and played it for about 15min before my fam and I had to go to my uncle's... got home late and went straight to bed. Tues night after work I hooked the 360 to the router and set up my xbox live profile, which also offered me 1 month free Gold. I had my brother pick up Gears of War on his way home from the gym. I didn't go to the gym b/c I knew he'd be home soon (he's usually outa the gym a lil after i get home from work)... by the time i tried downloading the Gears of War gameplay demo, he arrived home with the game.
I set up the game and played about 3 hours, then called it a night. My brother that picked up the game for me was off on Wed (yesterday), so he played for a while in the morning and I met him home for lunch break... I played about 10min, then had to get back to work. He has no xbox live accnt set up yet, but he created his own profile.
Now, when i got outa work yesterday I went home and kicked my OTHER bro off the game (yes, nicely )... so we now have 3 total profiles b/c he created a profile as well (no xbox live set up). I went to my profile, and went to continue campaign, etc... and then chose the level of difficulty (been playing the easiest since i'm new to xbox)... it would say "Loading" for a couple sec and then go back to the screen to choose difficulty level... this problem of loading a couple sec and going back to diff level does NOT go away...
This is where I'm stuck... I rebooted the machine, I tried the other level of difficulty, and NO GO!!! I went to load a specific level, and even that does the same thing. I was SO AGITATED that I said screw it and decided to attempt to start a NEW CAMPAIGN with my profile. STILL NO GO!!! It does the same thing every time!!! Eventually, I forget what I tried but the xbox froze.
My room is NOT hot... it's avg temp. Also, the xbox is near NO OTHER elec devices, AND i even put a little fan blowing in front of the machine. The machine stands upright, too.
The funny thing? BOTH of my brother's profiles have NO ISSUES, and they can still play their save games.
ANY THOUGHTS? Do I have to delete my profile and lose the free month of Gold, and just start a new profile?
This is all BS cuz the freakin' thing is brand new... NOTHING scratched, and I always take care of my stuff.
Thank in advance...
