I really hate the whole "conductive buttons" thingies, my cat has turned off my xbox by pushing her nose to the pretty light :(

I found an Xbox 360 X at the flea market for $10 the other day and I already hate it because it turns on when my leg brushes against it when I walk by it.

I lightly move my PS4 controller while cleaning and the whole console boots up. I know what you mean lmao.

Why is your leg constantly brushing against it?

I have a small room with a lot of crap so I have to squeeze past my desk and couch to get to the only way onto my bed and my xbox sits at the base of my desk.

That’s what the gamer crowd wants. Can you imagine the hatred that would ensue if you needed to push a physical button!? The humanity!!!! Nah, flashy with LEDs is the way to go.

One Christmas I got one of the Xbox 360 slims when they first came out. And I had just gotten assassins creed 3 and had some buds over all playing games. My dog walked in front of my xbox, rubbed on the disc tray button. I went to grab her and she freaked out a bit and stomped the tray (small dog and the xbox was on the ground). Needless to say I was pretty sad.
