You may have noticed that despite my console’s apparent death, I’m still playing games on it. This is because only a few games actually fail to work, with others playing just fine. One of the working games is Tomb Raider Anniversary.
At least, I thought it was. Until this morning, when I tried to play it. Turned on my 360, loaded the game (it was already in the drive), and started playing. Five minutes later, the game froze. In fact, the whole 360 froze as it wouldn’t respond to the guide button either. I turned it off, left it for a minute or so, then turned it back on.
Green bars. The whole screen was filled with vertical green bars.
I could still hear the start-up noise, and using the pad showed that the dashboard was working (I could hear it “swishing” left and right) – but the screen was completely green.
So I turned it off again, left it a while, and turned it back on. All was normal again, and was fine for the several hours more I used it, and again later in the day. More evidence my 360 is dying?
