Original Xbox: Kill Screen

Показать описание
Let me tell you a little story about something that plagues the Original Xbox, even to this day. It is so much of a threat, people are taking precautions to protect themselves from it, and to keep their consoles working.

Have you ever heard of the "Kill Screen"? No? Well, this devious little error not only breaks your system, it fries the internal components so badly that the Xbox is bricked beyond repair. If you get the error, it is highly advised that you should do what it tells you rather than try to push your luck.

There are 3 signs the "Kill Screen" is imminent:

1: Your Xbox runs hotter than usual, almost too hot.
2: There are noticable graphical glitches in your game.
3: The console freezes on a now bugged and distorted dashboard.

If you get the "Kill Screen", you will start to notice the bootup sequence becoming all glitchy with pixels. The console gives you several warnings to avoid using the console until it is repaired. If you ignore these warnings, you will get a chance to use the built-in Recovery Mode.

Please note that Recovery Mode does not work all the time. In fact, there is a 90% chance that proceeding with the system recovery will destroy the internals and leave the system bricked beyond repair, now only sending you to the "service required" screen with an unknown error code.

There have also been people that have been reporting this to Microsoft's customer support team, and every time, Microsoft cuts these people a check to afford a new Xbox, because not even they can fix this issue plaguing their video game console. It is a destructive bug not even the creators can fix.

At this point, the system is fried, unusable. Back in the day, if you called up the Customer Support team about this, they would issue you a check for a new Xbox. I am not sure if this service is still being provided by Microsoft, but if it isn't, then your only hope is to buy a brand-new Xbox and that to God hope you don't recieve it again.

The "Kill Screen" is a rare error to encounter, with it only appearing on one OG Xbox out of 20,000 every year. If you get the "Kill Screen", do not ignore the warnings and/or errors. Turn off the console and send it away to be repaired or you might just be begging your parents for a new one later on.

This is the only footage of this "Kill Screen" I was able to find.

NOTE: This is not real. This video was inspired by a very realistic Kill Screen video I discovered not too long ago. It is a very amazing and hyper realistic video, and I highly encourage you to check it out.

5:40 “please be aware that you have been advised numerous times to turn off your Xbox video game system to prevent any further damages to the internals.

If you continue to ignore the warnings Microsoft and any applicable affiliates will not be held accountable for any errors or internal system damage caused by your repeated disobedience.

The system will not operate under these conditions. Leave the system off and do not turn it back on, and send it away to be fixed. If you continue, you will 100% void your warranty”
This is what the text says if anyone can’t read it

For anyone who wonder the origins of creepy sounds at 8:12, those sounds are real but were found after someone extracted the hard drive to their computer and found those sounds

Q: Why can Recovery mode kill screen on any video game devices like Xbox, PS5, etc.?

A: Recovery mode is a powerful system mode designed to troubleshoot and repair issues with gaming devices. It can potentially cause disruptions to the normal functioning of the device, including affecting the screen, because it often involves modifying system settings, firmware, or software. Improper use of recovery mode or making incorrect changes can lead to instability, crashes, or even "bricking" the device, rendering it unusable. It's essential to use recovery mode carefully and only when necessary, following manufacturer instructions.

Kill Screen Endings (Best to Worst):
-Best Ending: Your device isn't of the few having the issue to begin with, so you're safe!
-Good Ending: The Recovery Mode works and you keep playing as normal.
-Neutral Ending: You listen to the first warning and send it to repair.
-Bad Ending: The device is bricked.
-Worst Ending: The device explodes due to the heat.

Man, that was a rollercoaster. Love the evolution from normal advise to passive-aggression to a straight up angry Xbox console.
Hmm... that ending reminds me of a certain visual novel about some high schoolers....
