RIP: Scenes of our dearly departed (consoles) |
Ó
Death is no laughing matter - unless it's a Darwin Award - and just like the day our pet dog (hit by a car), goldfish (eaten by the cat), cat (choked on the goldfish), or hamster (too busy gaming to feed) kicks the bucket, we deeply mourn the loss of our other beloved companion - the day we brick our console.
But they say the healing can begin if we bravely face death and accept it, with an open heart. With that in mind, we bring you these series - "Death Screens" - of various consoles finally giving up the ghost, courtesy of the guys at Game Brink. Think of this as your gamer's Memorial Wall. Know that there are gamers out there like you, who've probably fed their consoles one funky update too many. Remember, dear readers: You are not alone.
From left to right: Xbox, Xbox 360, PSP, PS3 and Wii.

kiss my ass 1st
:) after a downgrade this is the usual message, just press o and it reboots to XMB :)
lol thats pretty cool... R.I.P. Various consoles =P
The PSP & PS3 are not dead - all u have 2 do is press the O putton and it will repair settings & reboot.
: O
poor console :( a minute of silence for those lost.
No freakin joke man
I HATE THAT HAPPENING-IT REMOVED FLASH SUPPORT FOR MY PSP
I saw that crash screen quite often when I had version 2.01 or something. Really annoying
Aww, you went and forgot the "disc read error" screen of the PS2 :(
Trust me, PS3 is dead.
if those consoles are dead why do thay have messages on their screens
wow I'm impressed they've got Ps3 and Wii dead screen already...
well i haent ran into death , or piont of on my Game consoles.. my PSP yeah when i downgrade...
Welcome to graveyard..............
The only BSOD there is the 360. All the others require nothing more than the press of a button to fix.
since when a problem with wiichannel means the wii crashed?
dumbasses
no DS???
and why dident they get the psp to show red screen of death
just change something in 2.71's index.dat or replace the file with one from a diff firmware and emulate it in devhook
wala red screen of death
Nice idea. Oh, and for future reference, it's "voila" not "wala." Actually, there's supposed to be an accent mark in there over the O, but I don't feel like pulling up Character Map to look for it.
yeah good point
That is the error you get when you put your Xbox game in a DVD player. Sometimes it will show you a little move then show you that error, but it happens.
sad pics.
those are not deadwhen the're dead you get nothing! no nmessage! just a brick!
this is so dumb
All you have to do with the PS3 and PSP is press X or O and it reboots into its default system settings with your last updates deleted. The nintendo wii one is simple all you do is restart your console and install the update again and it will fix it in 80% of the time. The xbox360 one is bricked because you cant do anything with it all you ahve to do is send it in for repair which can be annoying sometimes.
The Wii one says,
"There is a problem with the WiiConnect 24 service..."
The Wii has NOT died/crashed or otherwise failed. I can reproduce this error by firewalling the service.
The Wii Error is USER ERROR not a console error.
lol
here's a pic of the TRUE death screen for PSP (from wiki)

well.. a psp can be bricked in several ways..
i mean i tampered around a little with the pspbtcnf_game.txt file.. and it ended up running no pbp files.. that way it bricked..luckily i had custom firmware wich made me able to revive it but still
4th and 5th image say "Press O to repair or restore to default" so.... are they still dead after that?
wow, bricked em all? you guys suck :S
The Wii is actually bricked. You would have to send it back to Nintendo for a replacement. And the PSP isn't bricked.
...because I killed the Media Engine.
Experimental versions of homebrew have their risks.
Ever since October 4th, I've been PSPless. It's a tragedy.
HA...i laughed when i saw the x box one, thats not bricked at all put an xbox game in a dvd player and se wat comes up, and the psp is definatly not bricked as many people have said befor me. btw bricked psps dont even turn on;)
the creator of this topic compared his idea to the PC windows blue screen of death where a system will have to be restarted.
to him it is what he called "death". hence all screens are true.
It's possible that the psp is bricked, i was messin around with some files when i rebooted and it had that blue error screen so i just pushed o, it rebooted but came up with the same message, so pushed o, rebooted and well you get the point
