Beretta55 is on a distinguished road
Of all the dirty....(mini-rant)

So yeah I got fairly pissed off today and its gaming related for an Xbox game, but the game itself didn't anger me.

You see I bought Fatal Frame for Xbox, brand new and sealed for a decent price, it was extremely hard to get it for this price. The game came to about 51 dollars, again not a bad deal when everyone is charging 100 plus for the game new. Just to clear things up, I very well know I can get the game cheaper used. But as a general rule the games are always messed up beyond repair like somebody put sandpaper all over it and my Xbox is especially picky on reading used games properly but plays new or at the very least mint condition games just fine. Plus I'm just the kind of guy that prefers new games, many a game I get used is in horrible condition or missing things.

I have a copy of Smugglers run on GC without any instructions or a freaking case, so it's in a generic black case that says gamestop on it, I have no idea why people treat games so poorly, anyway I digress.

Well it was shipped out two days after I bought it (this was on Feb 24th) and it took a while to get here, at least a week and some change but that's no big deal no harm no foul as long as I have it. Well there is NOTHING inside the shipping box, the game was freaking stolen out of the box and resealed. This happened when it was in Oklahoma (where I live) and there is a red print labeling indicating so, so I know it's not the seller, besides delivery confirmation and insurance were on the game so there was no feasible way he could rip me off and get away with it.

But yeah some joker stole the game when it was on arrival, he must have known of the rarity and high value of the game, or he just likes stealing crap. Either way I'm out of a fifty dollar game in a series I was really looking to play from start to finish, I already got Fatal Frame 2 and 3 previously to gear myself up for it.

Then to add matters my TV broke down on me randomly without any warning. It was my second Magnavox TV and it sputtered and died, never trust Magnavox their crappy televisions.

So in conclusion, thieves suck and never trust Magnavox televisions. Rant over.

Just to note I'm not as angry about this as I seem, it's not the end of the world sure but it's irritating and I hate nothing more then being stolen from, it sucks.

But for good news I got a new slim line PS2 which plays great and got Bully and Onimusha: Dawn of Dreams for it among other games, so there is a bright light at the end of the tunnel.
