    Faulty Gamecube

    Well it had to be me didn't it, got a gamecude yesterday worked fine. I got to the third level on starwars and it locked out making a strange noice like a horn LOL. I took the game back swapped for another one and it did it again. So i swapped the machine this time and it worked fine. Has anybody else had any problems or is just me as ****ing usual. What did you call me Raptor (Mr jinx) LOL. Anyway it works now so i think nintendo rock again.

    My m8 had to take his one back yesturday. He was playing Rouge Leader when he started hearing his telly making static noises like when you turn it off. So he touched the telly screen, got a huge discharge and his gamecube went pop

    If it is broken, and you only just bought it today, then of course you should take it back!

    yeah, this is looking bad, i've heard reports that swrl is not only causing problems on some pal gc's but on jap and usa ones too, the problem is its not the game, it seems to be an error in manufacture of the cubes themselves, cos we got less titles to pick from than the yanks it seems more of us bought this game at launch.

    so where does this problem occur?

    will it damage the GC and will replacing the GC fix it?
