Well i was traveling the net when i found this :

I don't know but i hope i'll never see that on my tv screen. The guy claims that his XBOX crashed on him the second day he had it. I don't have problems at my end........... how about you ?????

that what happens with you strangle your xbox with a bazillion cables.

He needs to fix the right side door below the T.V as well.

**GokuX** · 01-11-2002

It's also helpful that he has his XBox crammed in there at the bottom.

**TRUE_GAMER** · 01-11-2002

First the XBOX should be on a shelf by it self!!!!
Second the stench that the PS2 gives off when its on, got into its hardware!!!
Third the XBOX needs more room so the air can circulate!!!!!!!!!!!!

**GokuX** · 01-11-2002

Or was this the real message he got??

hmm....

**wizkid918** · 01-11-2002

**yall** · 01-11-2002

i think the picture is a fake. the xbox doenst appear to be turned on. if i had photshop or something like corel i could blow it up and tell for sure. someone look into it.

D a m n....how would anyone expect that to work with a huge cobweb of wires and junk....Man, I would be surprised if anything works! And, the entertainment stand is sitting all of it's weight on, what looks like, the main power wire. This is a serious fire hazard

**Ninja Scroll** · 01-11-2002

LOL, that setup looks like a mess! With all those wires running all over da place yourjust asking for that "fire safety bear" to come to your crib!

btw, anyone remember that dumb bears name? I think it was something Smokey?

**X-Fox220** · 01-11-2002

SMOKEY! WOO-HOO!

....

**xBoXGaMeR2002** · 01-11-2002

LOL,

**wizkid918** · 01-11-2002

i think it is fake, not only does it appear that the xbox isnt on (not positive, but TV dont look like it either, and when i get really close to the text you can see an outline where they did the text and added a type of noise filter or something, i dont believe it, at all!

**Snoopy7548** · 01-11-2002

I have seen this exact same photo on another forum and this wasn't an Xbox one, but a multi format one.

We came to the conslusion. Xbox, Gamecueb and PS fans alike that the Xbox isn't switched on and that the text has been imposed on the TV.

Also, someone found out that this isn't even the message that appears when the Xbox is broke and I noticed that the msg in this picture displays the msg in a number of different languages. This was reported to be an American Xbox which doesn't support other regions TVs and therefore there is no need to display this msg in all these other languages.
I think someone had to correct the foriegn translations too....

**smack119** · 01-11-2002

yes i agree it is definatley a fake. i used photoshop and checked it out. the xbox isnt on. it would have a red light on if it did that... it would stand out from the black. and you can definatley see the outline around the text. and maximus knows how i love to check out things and sniff out liars. i wsh i knew how to post the blown up pic showing these things..... but take my word you can tell its a fake
