Smash My Xbox

The Plan
From the creators of SmashMyiPod.com, we bring you, SmashMyXbox.com!
After we collect $430 in donations, we will take that money to a local unspecified retailer, which opens at 12am on the launch date. We will purchase the Xbox 360, and destroy it in front of the other Xbox fanboys who are already waiting in line. We will try to be at the very front of the line. The whole thing will be shot on film, and displayed on this site. This is only a social experiment, for the entertainment of the donors, and visitors of this site. For more info, read the faq.

The actual smashing was a disappointment. They weren't really around a lot of people. The rest of the video was pretty decent for what it was.

Why would they not smash it that night in front of a big crowd. It would have been hilarious.

Negative. It's an interesting play on various internet trends going around compiled into a new idea. It'll be great for advertisers and entertaining for site viewers.
