Official Xbox 360 Thread - Part VIIi
 

Another month, another thread...

¿

Has anyone else had a problem using the online form to get a coffin mine just crapped out , and it said a problem occurred I do not want to call if I don't have to.

damnit. Right after I posted. :lol:

Looks like the 360 DLC fiasco is behind us on Tomb Raider Anniversary. A retail release is on the schedule for 10/23 and is good for 1000 gamerpoints.

------------------------------------------
Tomb Raider: Anniversary [Xbox 360]
Release Date: Oct. 23rd
Amazon Pre-Order: $29.99 (free shipping)
The Achievement List

Anniversary was supposed(announced) to be DLC only. Each level would have been sold seperately and you would have had to play it through the Legend menus. Meaning you would still have to own TR:Legend to play it. It would have also only been worth 250 gamerscore.

The site is just majorly buggy. Keep trying over and over and it should eventually work. The problem with calling is that you might have to wait a while (for some reason, they've been getting a lot of calls lately ;) ) and possibly talk to someone whose first language is probably not English. Keep trying the site for a bit and then call as a last resort.

when is the fall update?

After summer.

:lol:

I think it was around Oct. 15th last year.

Posting this in the correct thread this time...

New Tri-Ace RPG coming out called Infinite Undiscovery. It is being co-published by Square Enix and Microsoft. Looks like it has real time combat.

Tri-Ace RPG, not Square-Enix. SE is only (co)-publishing.

Now you're just splitting hairs... :p

I updated the original post. It definitely looks like a Squenix game from those screen shots. It's one I'll be keeping an eye on.

How exactly does one "undiscover" something?

Maybe the main character gets amnesia, ala FFVII. ;)

Anyone up for a good laugh? Check out David Jaffe's Blog about Halo, titled Shit...did he just say FUCK HALO!?!? It is a dialog between him and a fellow Sony co-worker.

Jaffe, surprisingly, isn't too critical of the series but more of the marketing. His dialog partner is more critical. The real gem is always in the Sony fanboy responses. Good times.

Not really.. Final Fantasy VI Advance is not a Nintendo RPG, is it? ;)

Would have been freakin sweet if it was.

Creepy. I was considering posting a thread here along the same lines, except with proper spelling/grammar.

It's unpossible!

Awwwww snap! I think it's time for a Grammar-off!

15 minutes of Lost Odyssey footage. This game looks very intriguing:

Don't want to start a thread on it, but Medal of Honor: Airborne sucks. I'm used to CoD2, and it doesn't even compare. The controls are sub-par, the aiming is horrible, and the levels are repetitive. Glad it's only a rental.

^^ the demo sucked so...

I downloaded Sonic 2 and wow. I'm all nostalgic playing this it was actually one of the reasons I held on so tightly to my Genesis. If only they would release Earthworm Jim.

I really liked the first MoH game for Windows, but everything after that, including the two Windows expansion packs, have been horrible.

I was just setting up my new Xbox wireless adapter and as a test I went to the marketplace. Guess what. The new Spiderman game Friend or Foe Demo is out!!

FIFA 08 is is out as well.

Yeah I noticed that those are what I as downloading when I got my RROD.

finally got my 360 back wednesday after sending it in once I got the red light, Took about 3 weeks. Seems I got a new 360. Had all the stickers over everything still and Manufacturing date is 08/27/07

Some notes from MS about August Sales numbers:

This is interesting to me...

WOW! Color me happy, I love my 360!.....even when it is dead!...like since last night....anyway, I am not surprised by this news. the 360 software and future line up is just undeniable!!! Rock on my friends and hopefully, I will be back on Live within the month....

Thanks for the heads up. Going to check it out now.

That's not too surprising. The PS3 and Wii are both suffering from "first year software drought" syndrome. You can't very well buy PS3 and Wii software if none is available!

I'm kind of having fun with it. The crappy aiming actually makes it difficult which is quite a change from the other installments. It's certainly not a keeper but I do plan on finishing it.

New Halo 3 teaser commercial,

(I posted in the Halo 3 thread, but thought it might be worthy to post here as well)

Absolutely hysterical reading these comments after reading praise the series gets from David Jaffe's Blog while they bash Halo. Too rich.

maingon, does it have the HDMI port?
