The -blam!- Microsoft.
Came home from work, usual routine. "Xbox on" things working as usual. "Xbox go to Netflix. "
Nothing.
"Xbox." Still nothing. "Xbox select." Nope. "Xbox go to settings." Not a ping. Won't respond in the slightest to any voice command.
And it gets worse. I tried to hold the Home button to turn of the system. The controller/console off menu never appears. Instead, the controller just powers down. So I went to settings manually via the menu button to turn the console off. That button doesn't work.
The only way to power down my console is to press the power button. So right now, I'm stuck with a literal paper weight of a Kinect and a console that doesn't want to turn off. But for some reason has no problem turning on.
Anyone here been in a similar boat?
