Okay. Just got back from Disney's Magic Kingdom. It was really crowded so all we did was the jungle cruise, rode the steam boat and watched the parade. At least I got a nice lunch out of it.

Anyways, I played Erik’s Xbox 360 last night. We hooked it up to his 36" high-def TV, and I must say I was very impressed. Gears of War looked fantastic but is only a two player game without another 360. F.E.A.R wasn’t anything special in my opinion, but Eddie and Erik got a kick out of it. And then finally we tried to play Marvel: Ultimate Alliance. As we played it kept saying that controller one was disconnected. Every time we tried resetting the controller the error would keep popping back up every few seconds. We swapped out batteries but that didn't help. Things started getting scary when Erik tried to reconfigure the controller ports. He pushed a button on the front of the 360 and all of a sudden it started to sound like a blender chewing up chunks of plastic. We had heard horror stories from Dave of how he tried to move his 360 with a game running and it damaged the CD to where it would no longer play.
Luckily Erik's game was not damaged but I still wonder what caused such a noise. In the end the game ran fine and all three of us had a really fun time. As a matter of fact I just got a call from Mary, inviting me over once again tonight for more 360 goodness!
