From CNN i-Report FULL STORY and PICTURES

In Mechanicsville, Virginia a father had an issue with his boys behaving badly while playing the Xbox. After breaking it in two he proudly nails it high up on a tree in the backyard. What a mean daddy. LOL. His wife posted it as a CNN i-Report.
Thought I would share the story.

At least it wasn't a 360

Thought this would be more appreciated in here

That is pretty funny.

Is it wrong to see that second picture and immediately try to see if you could tell what version it is?

Well from the second picture, it looks like there's a piece of shielding that goes on the front of the DVD drive, and I've only seen that on a 1.1.

A little excessive if you ask me!

Def a 1.0/1.1 since there's a fan on the GPU heatsink. the CPU heatsink has gone completely however.

My Son's got an Xbox in his room. If he misbehaves, it gets removed and he has to earn it back. Simple enough really.

All the xbox's i have owned had a DVD shield. I dont think its a matter of version. All of them should have it i think.

And 1.1 xbox's do not have a GPU fan its a 1.0 exclusive deal haha.

I don't even know why i bothered to type that because honestly its nailed to a tree. So it does not even matter!

Funny as hell. And oddly enough i passed thru Mechanicsville about a week ago.

wonder what kind of behavior she is referring to?

heh.. nice punishment though.

What ever happened to beating the shit out of your kids with a belt....

GO DAD!!!!!! I have 4 boys and they bitch and fight all the time when on the Xbox but thats little boys for ya.
I've never broke an xbox because of all the work in the hard mods I've done but I have pulled the cord out of controllers. But now I make them do things around the house to earn money now they pay to play and no more fighting.

Wow! LMAO! No I've seen it all now. lol That's better than Smashmyxbox.com LOL!

i wonder if their behavior was in any way related to the DREs they were likely getting from the thomson in that thing, lol

LMAO! (Brother grabs the other brother's neck and shakes his neck like Homer does Bart) "DVD Drive, noooooo"
