Erik Estavillo is a name I'm sure will be responsible for much future amusement. Originally gaining notoriety for suing Sony after being banned from PSN due to improper conduct, he set his sights next on Nintento and Microsoft -- in the former case, he bricked his Wii while modding it to pirate games illegally (no, seriously) , and in the latter his Xbox 360 suffered from the common "red ring...
