man lemme work where you are cause you buy fuckin EVERYTHING
mine is just a short version of yours
NCAA Football 08 (7/17/07) Madden NFL 08 (8/14/07) Bioshock (8/21/07) Tiger Woods 08 (8/28/07) PGR 4 (9/3/07) NHL 08 (9/11/07) Turok (9/17/07) Halo 3 (9/25/07) NBA 2K8 (10/2/07) Half-Life 2 Orange Box (10/9/07) Grand Theft Auto IV (10/16/07) Mercenaries 2 (10/22/07) Guitar Hero III (10/28/07) Call of Duty 4 (10/30/07) Kane and Lynch (11/13/07) Devil May Cry 4 (TBA) Army of Two (TBA) Unreal Tournament 3 (TBA)
im just glad i got a brother that buys shit and swap with (games like mass effect, assassins creed and such), otherwise this shit would get expensive 7/8/2007 2:32:44 PM |
cyrion All American 27139 Posts user info edit post |
thats why you just do gamefly and only buy the really good multiplayer games.
for me: Bioshock (8/21/07) Mass Effect (9/3/07) Halo 3 (9/25/07) Half-Life 2 Orange Box (10/9/07) Grand Theft Auto IV (10/16/07) Guitar Hero III (10/28/07) Call of Duty 4 (10/30/07) Assassin’s Creed (TBA) Devil May Cry 4 (TBA)
Probably rent most, maybe buy either COD4 or HL:Orange Box for Team Fortress. I'm sure most of the rest will be 1-2 playthrough kinda games. 7/8/2007 2:38:57 PM |

i had the red lights of death, sent off and got it back.
2 months later the xbox will stop playing the game (or movie), go back to the dashboard, and the middle green light flashes. then if i try to open the drive, it opens an inch and closes again.
anyone have this problem? 7/9/2007 1:52:40 PM |

about a week, no more than two
however since they just opened the billion dollar repair floodgates, i could see it taking a month or so...i seriously doubt the turnaround time will be quicker since it would seem a lot more people are sending theres back now that its free...i hope i'm wrong though]7/9/2007 2:07:09 PM |

so basically they're open til 1 in the morning
i called them on maybe friday or thursday of last week at around 8pm...wasnt on hold hardly any time...just waiting for all the dumb voice prompts..."you can say xbox...xbox 360" (me: xbox360)..."xbox 360, gotcha"
just make sure to tell them you have three flashing red lights...even if you have one solid red light and the software error on the screen...that shit isnt covered by 3 year warranty...TELL THEM YOU HAVE 3 FLASHING RED LIGHTS...they dont give a fuck whats wrong with your system and they'll never test it out...just tell them MY XBOX 360 HAS 3 FLASHING RED LIGHTS and its all free7/9/2007 2:16:20 PM |

I just hooked it up.
It gets perfect signal but won't connect. 7/9/2007 3:01:12 PM |
TreeTwista10 minisoldr 148450 Posts user info edit post |
any way possible to hook it up wired...get it set up with a wired connection...then once all teh configuration is good to go try the wireless? dunno if thats feasible based on where your modem is in relation to your box...i just ran a 50' cat5 cable under the carpet to the living room myself 7/9/2007 3:14:55 PM |
Mr. Joshua Swimfanfan 43948 Posts user info edit post |
I had it running wired through my router and it worked fine. I would just rather have it wireless because I don't feel like running the cable and i would have no way to hide it.
I spent an hour on the phone with an indian lady last week trying to make it happen. She was useless. 7/9/2007 3:17:48 PM |

you made sure to correctly enter your security information?
Also, be sure that you're using the correct band. I don't think the xbox can use A. I can't remember though. 7/9/2007 3:33:05 PM |

so if a game that i bought from gamefly is really scratched, should i just add that game to my queue and when i get it pull a walmart? 7/9/2007 4:43:20 PM |
AndyMac All American 31922 Posts user info edit post |
That might be a good idea
I bought Gears of War from gamefly, and it was a little bit scratched also. Plus the middle clear plastic area around the hole is cracked. It works fine though, so I didn't raise hell about it or anything. 7/9/2007 4:47:59 PM |

btw joshua, wireless sux balls everytime i tried it. i used to use it and it would work for a month or two then crap out for weeks on end. when it was working, call of duty wouldnt even let me connect to the multiplayer servers. guess my latency was too high. i gave up and now use a 50' cable with few complaints.

how would you pull a walmart? they just ship you the case/instructions
with media like games and CDs i think its only good for exchange only7/9/2007 7:43:16 PM |
Mr. Joshua Swimfanfan 43948 Posts user info edit post |
^^ Yeah, I heard the same complaints, but I was mostly hoping to use it for downloadable content.
Basically roadrunner doesn't work out of the same jack as the tv if I put a splitter on it - I don't know if my wiring is fickle or what. I just redid my entire condo and I really don't want an ethernet cable stuffed in the corner. Basically it comes down to me being a homo and putting interior design ahead of gaming. 7/9/2007 8:09:27 PM |

I think he means swap it with gamefly. too bad if you damage the disk you are still responsible for it. 7/9/2007 8:50:10 PM |

^yeah basically
send back my scratched disc (which still plays most of the time)...if it ever comes up (which it wont) i'll just tell them i got it like that...and of course the same game which i bought previously, i obviously gave away as a gift and i only rented their scratched copy to get an achievement or two7/9/2007 9:45:09 PM |

I think I've posted my list before, but I'll do it again just for kicks.
NCAA Football 08 (7/17/07) Madden NFL 08 (8/14/07) Halo 3 (9/25/07) Grand Theft Auto IV (10/16/07) WWE Smackdown vs. Raw 2008 (11/13/07)
I just paid off NCAA, so I'm straight. Lots of great games coming out this fall for the 360. This isn't including anything coming from the Live arcade.
^The Darkness is pretty dope. I played it last weekend too. Now, I need to finish the GDI campaign on C&C3. 7/10/2007 8:04:21 AM |
