So, as you all know, you can't play most of Halo 2 Multiplayer without these new maps. Fine and Dandy. I have a problem however, I try and add a debit card in my Account Management in the 360 Dashboard, and it won't go through.

So I call 1-800-4MY-XBOX, and talk to Hashir in India, who can't seem to help me, and hangs up half way between the call.

I've asked for help on Xbox's forums, to no avail.

Tell me, why put people through grief over $4?

I mean, what can one do with $4? Buy a coffee at Starbucks, get enough gas to drive you around the block, Get a bottled water at Disneyland, etc.

Of course, getting $4 for 1,000,000 is different, obviously. Thing is, does it take $4,000,000 to make these two maps that will be free in a month?

Just venting, feel free to help/flame/jump off a bridge.

My heart goes out to ye, but nobody here can do much :/

And you still have good playlists to play. (TTraining, Double Team, BTB, & HC, although BTB is eh.)

Yah tell me about it. I'm not gonna even try and call Microsoft Tech Support because they don't help the situation. I'm just gonna buy an XBox 360 Elite.

Yeah, they don't really ever do anything, it seems. They sure know how to put you on hold/outsource, though!

Cool, have fun with the Elite.

My neighbor had the same thing happen. He looked online and found a site, that apparently I can't find right now, and it said to wrap your 360 in 2-3 towels. Making sure that you cover up the venting holes, and turn the console on. After 10-15 minutes, and after your 360 gets very hot to where you are pretty much sure it is going to melt, turn the console off and take the towels off. Now turn the console back on and somehow it came back on. It may sound like I am just trying to get you to mess your 360 up, but honestly, what do you have to lose?
