I got a statement today from Microsoft saying my 360 was under warranty for another year. So with my 2 year extended that I bought last year, I'm good till May 2009. :lol: I hope I don't have to use it again. You hear nightmares about people that have to send their's back 2 or 3 times.

I got one of those too. |
Alright, regarding Catan, all of you are evil for schilling for it. I easily played single player for around 5 hrs today without even noticing. The g/f walked in with the "do you know what time it is face" and then I turned it off. That being said, I will be back on after the Sox game :-D Feel free to add me for a game or two. Live Name = Draginous

Wow, I know I'm late to the game but that Arcade Pinball game is pretty cool. I'm too cheap to pay 800 for it so i just keep playing the demo over and over. :lol:

Just walk away Ho-Tang! LOL!!! I took off the entire week next week to celebrate my birthday...ugh 39...so I plan on meeting up with YOU on whatever game it is you guys play on-line now since I won't have to go to bed at a decent hour. I miss getting killed by you guys! I have been buying CD's since they first came out and I have no more than 5 digital (downloaded) CD's. LOL 5 books that hold 340+ CD's are full and I still have hundreds that I haven't put into books yet. :-) |
does anyone know when that new Gears of War map pack will be available for download today?
|
They should be already available. They were supposed to be ready at 2:00 AM PDT (5:00 AM EDT)

I'm a fan of pinball games but $10 for 3 tables is a bit much for me. I'm going to wait and see how they price additional content. If they do some free tables, I'll pick it up in a heartbeat.

Cool. I'll have to check that out.
*edit - looks like there is a Gamecube version which would work just as well. And while I was browsing looks like their is a Wii version on the way. |

Right now I'm working on unlocking all of their costumes. I've unlocked all four for Nightcrawler and only the second one for each of the others. I've got Magneto in his classic costume, Venom in his Marvel Knights costume, Nightcrawler in his Age of Apocalypse costume, and Cyclops in his classic. I also noticed that now the characters icons change at the bottom of the screen when you change their costumes. I'm pretty sure the game didn't do that before.
I'm not quite sure how to get the other Achievements. I assume you have to be playing as specific characters at specific moments in the game. So, if anyone has a little cheat sheet on which character and which level you need to play as them that would be great. |
Just beat R6:Vegas, damn was that tough... on regular... ugh.

I'm not a pinball fan, but this looked interesting and I have no regrets about buying it (only my second XBLA purchase, most of the games don't do much for me). I'm having trouble figuring out what I'm supposed to do on each board. I can't read the text that pops up when you start each mini-game without taking my eye off the ball, so I'm not really sure what I should be doing to rack up more points. I paused the game and looked at the help for each board, but that doesn't always provide clear descriptions. Any websites with tips? |
Caved in and bought Boom Boom Rocket. I'm not musically inclined at all, but it is fun and relaxing. I have no doubt that I won't get past medium... if I even make it that far. :lol:
It is the first game that my wife has really wanted to play. I let her play the demo and she loved it(she plays piano and sings). Right now I have the edge being a gamer and knowing the controller, but once she gets the hang of it, I'm through. :) |

Tried out Spider-Man 3. It's fun, but feels more like an extension of Spider-Man 2 than a whole new experience. Also, the character models in the cinematics are horrendous. I can't believe they're even calling it a next gen games with the way the characters look.

Rumor is that Double Dragon's coming to XBLA on Wednesday.
|
Amazon's Deal of the Day today 05/05 is Tony Hawk's Project 8 for $24.99. I have Amazon Prime which makes spending money there a bit more fun so I bit.

Anyone else notice that Live was kinda messed up this weekend? It's a bit better now but I know Lost Planet was kinda jacked up and I hear GOW and R6:Vegas online were giving people problems too.

I was able to play Saints Row on live with no problems last night.
|
Live froze on me two or three times yesterday but figured it was just my 360 acting up.
And Robo, when are we gonna play some GOW multi w/the new maps? |
Well, chalk me up to one with a broken 360 as well. I was playing Oblivion and my console started shuttering from the momentum of the DVD drive. I managed to save and shut it down, but not the drive will not spin at all. Manufacture date was 7-4-2006. Thankfully, I can still play XBLA games till the shipping crate gets here, so time for Catan it is.
|
I had a number of issues playing Vegas with some friends last night. Them prepping the system for the update this coming week must be the cause.
|
So when is this spring cleaning update happening again? I thought it was going to be May 3, but I haven't noticed an update.

my 360 ate my fucking Gears of War disc, which is terrible timing considering I was hosting an 8 player match and really starting to get into these new maps

yes, thats precisely what happened.
as far as I knew, you would have to physically move the 360 in order for that to happen. In my situation, its not even possible for me to move the unit, considering where I have it. |
do you have it stored vertically or horizontally?

I just moved, and hooked up my 360 to my SDTV (it was in my gf's apartment on her flat panel widescreen TV). Man, does it look squished now.
|
I'm not sure, never looked
I have my 360 in the vertical position btw |
